NINETY-YEAR-OLD Mamerta Cabale finally got to walk down the church aisle in a flowing white wedding gown with train and veil yesterday after 75 years of marriage to her 102-year-old husband, Sabas Cabale. The couple were married in a civil ceremony in the Philippines in 1933 after Mamerta, then a 14-year-old convent girl, eloped with Sabas, a dashing chauffeur. The couple had 10 children and came 25 years ago to Australia where their daughter Leticia cares for them. "I always wanted to be married in a church and today is a wonderful day," Mamerta said as Leticia and another daughter Elinda, who had flown over from Chicago, got their parents ready for their big day.
