U.S. Senator John F. Kennedy Married Jacqueline Bouvier This Day 1953

On this day in 1953 United States Senator and Future POTUS John F. Kennedy married Jacqueline Bouvier at St. Mary’s Church in Newport, Rhode Island. Senator Kennedy was 35 years old. I remember when I was in high school a few of my friends and I were out riding around and one of them talked of getting married as soon as he got out of high school. I said “I am not getting married until I am 35, just like JFK” I got married when I was 35.
