Ninety Year Old Finally Gets A White Wedding

NINETY YEAR OLD Mamerta Cabale finally got to walk down the  aisle in a flowing white wedding gown and veil yesterday after 75 years of marriage to her 102year old husband, Sabas Cabale.

The couple were married in a civil ceremony in the Philippines in 1933 after Mamerta a then  14 year old convent school girl eloped with Sabas a dashing chauffeur.

The couple has 10 children and went to live in  Australia 25 years ago  where their daughter cares for them.

Mamerta said she had always wanted to be married in a church and it has been a wonderful day.
