It’s not easy making it to your 50th wedding anniversary. But managing to slip into the exact same outfits you got married in decades after? Now that’s something to talk about.

And that’s what British couple, Carole-Ann and Jim Stanfield did, when they celebrated their golden wedding anniversary on Oct 1, 2016, according to The Telegraph.

Mr and Mrs Stanfield came across their old outfits when they were looking for their wedding pictures for their granddaughter Hayley, in the loft in their home.

Upon the discovery, Hayley encouraged her grandparents to try them on – and they fit, much to everyone’s surprise.

In an interview with The Huffington Post, Hayley revealed that no alterations or adjustments were made.

“They were completely untouched apart from having been washed and dry cleaned!” she said. “Me and my boyfriend got them down from the loft. And as a joke they tried them on, as I am so excited about anything wedding-based.”
