Golden couple Jeffrey and Mary Clark are celebrating 50 years of marriage today.
The anniversary comes as a family hat-trick after Mr Clark's grandparents and parents also reached their 50th wedding anniversary.
The couple, of Damens Road, Keighley, have lived in the town all their lives.
They met in 1952 at Keighley's old mechanics institute, on North Street. Mr Clark had just returned from completing two years of national service and attended the Friday night dance to celebrate.
The pair were married at St Anne's Church, North Street, a year later.
Mr Clark, now 73, worked as a plumber and Mrs Clark, 69, as a warper at a textiles firm.
She likes walking and gardening, while he is a member of the Lund Park veterans bowls team. He is also an honorary member of the Bowling Association.
The pair have three sons - Danny, 47, Steven, 43 and Peter, 35 and two daughters Annette, 45 and Susan, 41. They also have five grandchildren and one great-grandchild.
In celebration of their anniversary, Mr and Mrs Clark's family surprised them with a holiday to Germany to see the Christmas markets.
In lieu of gifts, the couple have asked family and friends to make donations to Manorlands hospice in Oxenhope.
