54-year-old Nick Cardello and his longtime partner, Kurt English, 52, recreated the above picture they took in 1993.
A tweet of both versions of the photo currently has more than 160,000 retweets and 600,000 likes … probably because it’s the absolute loveliest thing to ever hit the web.

‘It was amazing we found each other,’ Cardello, a photographer who took each of the photos, explained.
He and English met at church in 1992 despite living more than 60 miles apart.
The couple first held a commitment ceremony at home in Florida in 1993. They then got legally married in Boston in 2008 and married again in their home state in 2015 when it became legal there too.
