Mass. couple gets married on the day that matches their home town’s ZIP code

AMESBURY, Mass. – Couples often hold weddings on significant dates, but a Massachusetts couple has come up with a new way of remembering their ceremony.

Cheryl Bennett and Steven DeLong, longtime residents of Amesbury, are getting married Wednesday, the same date as the town’s ZIP code of 01913.

Forty-five-year-old mechanic DeLong and 31-year-old medical receptionist Bennett will hold a short outdoor ceremony at the town gazebo with their children from previous marriages.

Bennett tells The Daily News of Newburyport (http://bit.ly/13ijO2d ) that she is fascinated by numbers and that the ZIP code wedding idea was hers.

Her favourite numbers are 11 and 22, and her husband-to-be’s birthday is Nov. 22.
