Groom, 103, proves you're never too old to tie the knot!

Few people have lived the adage "you can't hurry love" quite like George Kirby, Britian's oldest groom-to-be.

Kirby and his 91-year-old fiancee, Doreen Luckie, are finally getting married after nearly three decades of dating, The Telegraph reports.

"We seem to have made every national newspaper. Good job I didn't marry her years ago..." Kirby joked in a recent Facebook post.

The couple is set to break a world record when they finally tie the knot on June 13, Kirby's 103rd birthday, with a combined age of 194.
