WASHINGTON — Over 1,400 couples flocked to the National Kiss Under the National Mistletoe event Saturday evening, making DC the new world record-holder for the most simultaneous kisses under a mistletoe, according to event organizers.
With 1,435 couples locking lips for around five seconds, the gathering beats the previous record of 480 set in 2019 at an Anheuser-Busch event in St. Louis.
For attendees Ysela Coreas and Kevin Miranda, the evening spectacle was extra special.
“We knew each other since middle school and pretty much recently tied the knot, and not only that, I recently gave her a promise ring as well,” Miranda said.
