After 80 years of marriage, a couple in China have finally posed for their wedding photos.
Song
Qinglin, 102, and his wife Song Lishi, 99, were too poor to have a big
celebration when they married in 1936, and only had three plates of food
for their wedding banquet, reports the People's Daily Online.
The loving couple from eastern China's Anhui Province dressed up in their wedding outfits while holding hands during the shoot.

The couple have been praised for their long lasting marriage on social media site QQ.com.
One
user wrote: 'To tell you the truth, I did not see that they are 100,
they are old but I still really wish them health and longevity.'
While another wrote: 'Really happy that they have lived so long!'
And one user said: 'The two of them are so cute!'
This couple aren't the only pair to have a long lasting marriage.
On July 6 it was reported that a devoted couple had been with each other for 96 years.
The 103-year-old wife moved in with her 102-year-old husband when she was just six-years-old after her parents died.
The
woman followed a traditional arrangement which meant she was adopted by
another family and would later marry one of the sons in the family.
They are never seen apart from each other.
