If you are married, how old were you on your big day?

I was 20 and Mark was 27 when we were married. But now, I look at a 22 year old friend who is contemplating marriage, and she seems so very young to be making that kind of decision! I guess my perspective has changed.

I was 24, he was 24. We just got married October 05.

Paul and I got married the summer we both turned 22. It was the right time for us, but I think every couple is different.

It seems so strange to me I'm 25 and I feel like I'm way too young to be married! Although it seems like I'm almost married. I live with my partner and in August I will be adding Alexa to my benefits at work (she is graduating college and won't be on her parents insurance anymore). When people younger then me talk of getting married I always think it's too young! I don't know why I think that way, maybe I'm just immature

I was 2 months before my 25th birthday, Ralph just passed his 26th.

I was 24 and my X was 31.

It was last year, and I was 22 and he was 25. We'd already been together for 3 years before then, though so we didn't rush in too soon!

The first time I got married, I married my highschool "sweetheart" and we got married at 22, right after we graduated from college. We were married for almost 9 years, and then I was single for almost 10 years. My second (and best) marriage was when I was 40 and my husband was 35. I robbed the cradle!

I was 20 and he was 24, and that was 31 years ago

Now, it seems to me that 20 is very young. I guess many are waiting until later these days also. It was the right time for us and like Karen said - every couple is different.

I was 26, Stuart was 32. I comptemplated marriage once before Stuart when I was younger. I am so glad I didn't get married then. I got to do alot of things, go alot of places, meet people, finish 2 degrees, ect, ect, lots of things I couldn't have done or that would have been way more difficult if I was married. Now when I look at Stuart I know he was the right choice and I never wonder "what if" or "what would that be like?".

Worked out for the other man too--he's happily married now to a lovely lady and has three beautiful children.

I was 17 and Tim 21 dated for 3 years before. Now 27 years later of marraige still going strong and soon (any day grandparents) from our 24year old married daughter.

He was my high school sweetheart and we dated for almost 6 years before we got married.
