Billy and Brenda Jones from Abertridwr have recently celebrated their platinum wedding anniversary surrounded by friends and family.
The pair first met in their early 20s, before later getting married in the now closed Eglwysilan Church, Abertridwr.
Originally from Llanbradach, Billy, who is 94, has five grandchildren and six great grandchildren with Brenda, who is 90 herself.
Granddaughter Sarah Kaminski spoke to Caerphilly Observer and said: “They had a wonderful day, neither of them are very mobile now but we all went up there with cake and they enjoyed themselves.
“Seventy years is an amazing achievement, I read that the chances are around one in a million.”
