We rounded up so many gorgeous couples we couldn’t fit them all in one issue. That said, we’re happy to have the cuteness continue.

Another one of our couples who’s relationship has stood the test of time, Ramona and Elaine have been together for 21 years. “We met when Ramona couldn’t find the dipstick on her lawn mower and I rescued her,” Elaine says, and then adds, “No kidding.” This May the couple plans to be married in Provincetown. Elaine and Ramona’s many interests include antiques, cooking, and pets. Their relationship has flourished over the years because they are dedicated, honest, caring, and patient with each other. “We always make sure to think of the other person’s needs first,” says Elaine. “We are more in love than we’ve ever been,” they say. “Couples our age still have the fire! Believe it!”
