The grooms, who are both in their 70s, exchanged rings during a quiet ceremony outside the courthouse in Bradenton, Florida. With the legalization of same-sex marriage, Don and Ted wanted to honor those who fought for their right to marry by making their relationship official.\u00a0After the ceremony the newlyweds enjoyed muffins and coffee alongside Don’s sister and their photographer at a cafe downtown.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 Vendor CreditsPhotography: Tara Tomlinson PhotographyCeremony venue:\u00a0Manatee County CourthouseReception venue:\u00a0Robin’s Downtown Cafe"},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Longtime loves get equally wed after 50 years together","item":"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/longtime-loves-get-equally-wed\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
