Those couples, some of whom have been married even longer, renewed their marriage vows today.
The Diocese provided a number of locations including Plover, Altoona, La Crosse or Wausau.
More than 700 couples renewed their vows today including 63 in the city of La Crosse.
"Anyone who's been married will say, 'Wow that's a lot of work, and a lot of commitment' and so certainly their children want to celebrate this as well as the couples themselves who as the Bishop shared today in his sermon just the whole idea of God's in the middle and that's what's kept these marriages so strong."
Altogether, today's couples celebrated more than 36,000 years of marriage.
