How old will you be when you tie the knot?

Posted on Planning 115

I'm just wondering how old all our lovely brides and grooms to be will be when the tie the know? I'm sick of being told that I'm too young to get married and should wait longer, I will be exactly 14 days to the day away from turning 23.

    yes!!!! I'm getting married with bingo wings, a scraggy neck, spaniel's ears where my boobs used to be and a mummy tummy. But hey, between some decent corsetry and a bit of photo-shopping I'm sure I'll be grand!

    I'll be 28 (29 five days later but still!) and OH will be 29. If our date had stayed on 4 May we would both have been 29 but I'm quietly pleased ill be 28 when I marry, no idea why I just prefer it somehow :-)

    4 days off 25, and my partner will be 28 just over a month after.

    I've literally been called a "child bride". I don't think 24 and 27 sounds terrible, but there we go. Had immigration not pushed it, I don't think we'd have bothered for a good decade or so (if we ever got round to it), as it is younger than I'd have ideally liked. But, well, neither of my grandmothers were even 18 and they had perfectly happy marriages.

    I'll be 30, OH will be 32. Later than I would have liked (we've been together 5 years already and I would have ideally liked to marry last year but he didn't ask!)

    I turn 21 three days before we get hitched. OH will be nearly 24. I always get the 'you're too young', 'you're still a kid' comments. Some people just complete the average life milestones sooner than others. I'm proud to say I have been with him for four years, we have our own house, both have stable jobs, two cats etc. I would like to hope people would rather see a 19 year old settling down instead of doing what they stereotypically do like binge drinking, sleeping around. I've never been like that and never will. I was blessed enough to find love early on. He proposed to me and our parents were absolutely over the moon and have been booking stuff/buying stuff for us because they are so excited. If our families approve, I don't care about what anyone else thinks. ?

    I have a toyboy too - although only by 18 months or so! I'll be 42 when we get married (about 11 days off turning 43) and my OH will be 41. It took me a while to figure that out - I have gained a really useful skill of forgetting how old I am with age ?

    Gosh - I'm the old lady of this thread !

    I will be 50 when we marry, and OH will be 50 before me - 6 very important weeks before me!

    I was married at 26, for 7 years, and have been on my own since then, brining up my two boys - I met OH 18 months ago, and he is the picture on the box of jigsaw bits I call life Smiley smileSmiley smile I've never felt happier than since he came into my life, and I never believed I'd ever consider marrying again.

    I will be 37 and OH 34 (nearly 35).

    My brother and SIL got married at 24 and 23 respectively, they had a few people say they were too young but not people who actually knew them! They got together just as my brother turned 18 and this year will celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary.

    I wouldn't have got married in my early 20s but that's purely because I hadn't met someone I wanted to marry. In fact I was fairly convinced I'd never meet anyone that I actually wanted to be married to who could also put up with me!! For some people that happens early in life, some later and some never.
