Move over, young brides – 80-year-old Janet Merryman just set a new standard for wedding glamour. Her recent nuptials to 60-year-old Dave have captivated social media, with her granddaughter’s behind-the-scenes videos racking up millions of views.
The footage shows every delightful moment – from Janet’s “bridezilla” moments (playfully teased by her granddaughter) to her stunning transformation. The radiant bride chose a glamorous gown with a thigh-high slit, paired with sparkling hair accessories that highlighted her timeless beauty. “I can’t believe this is happening at my age,” Janet marveled at the outpouring of love from complete strangers.
Their unconventional love story began next door.

What started with casual holiday dinners and friendly hugs evolved into a beautiful late-in-life romance that’s inspiring people worldwide. As they fed each other wedding cake amidst laughter and happy tears, one thing became clear: true love has no expiration date.
