Longest-married couple together 78 years!

Wilbur and Theresa Faiss tied the knot on April 14, 1933, and have enjoyed 78 years of wedded bliss ever since!

Their proud son entered them into a contest and the pair has just been named the longest-married couple in the U.S.

"I just had no idea of us ever winning the… longest-married couple," Wilbur told KVVU.

You also have to love that the centenarians live in the "Marriage Capital of the World" (we’re talking about Las Vegas, of course).

In honor of marriage, here a few other record-holders you might be interested in:

• Most marriage vow renewals: A Tenn. couple has renewed their vows 100 times!
• Oldest couple to marry: A couple tied the knot in France at the ages of 96 and 94
• Tallest married couple: A Canadian couple stacks up to a combined 15 ft 6.5 in

But back to actually being married for a long time… because that’s what a lot of us aim for, right? Just how did this couple do it?

Here’s Wilbur’s secret: "It's very simple... It's give and take, and compromise."

Ah, Wilbur -- if only it were that simple!
