Antonio and Carmel Valentino say they saw fireworks when they met nearly 60 years ago, making a Fourth of July wedding a natural choice.
On Independence Day weekend, the beloved couple is celebrating their 56th wedding anniversary.
Sen. Richard Blumenthal recognized the beloved couple, who are the owners of Valentino Tailors in New Haven.
They have a wide client base in Greenwich, Stamford, Norwalk and Bridgeport. They say the Fourth of July every year is a memorable milestone on their sentimental journey.
Enzo told News 12, "Only in America can you show up with a suitcase, meet the love of your life and start a successful business only in America."
