"You do not know us, but we found your names through a google search 'Chuck and Mary engagement notice'," the letter read.
"Through a little bridal gift registry 'detective work' we found an address to send this gift."
The champagne glasses had once belonged to the original Chuck and Mary.
"They were our beloved parents of seven children," the letter continued.
"They had 62 years of a beloved marriage. Chuck and Mary Felker were pillars of their community, and very, very loving people. They most enjoyed dancing together and even taught ballroom dance classes for many years.
"Our family sends our wishes that you both also have such a blessed union."
"I just got chills and goosebumps all over," Mary told Liftable.
As it happened, Mary and her bridesmaids were to wear Converse on the big day.
"It was just all very much a bunch of coincidences all together. It’s all really cool."
Chuck and Mary have invited the seven siblings who sent the package to their wedding and say they plan to carry on the tradition and send the glasses on to another Chuck and Mary in the future.Are saunas actually good for you? Here’s what experts have to say
