Older than average bride?

I just read the average age for a woman in the UK to get married is 28.9 years old (For men it's 30.8 years). Clearly then, at 32, I'm considered an 'older than average' bride. ️?️

Quite a lot of the posts on here appear to be from much younger brides/brides-to-be (going by usernames with years of birth in). I was just wondering how old everyone was? Do we have a Hitched average bridal age?

I know a lady never reveals her age but we're all friends here...

    I will be getting married 3 weeks before my 32nd birthday. However I am a second time bride and was 24 when I got married the first time.

    I'm 34, will be 35 by the time my wedding rolls around. I take comfort in the fact that h2b is 47 and will be 48 by our wedding date. x

    I'm 27 now and will be 28.5 yrs old by the time we get married, H2B with be 30.5, so those "average age" numbers are almost spot on for us ?

    I'm going to beat you both! 42.5 already. Will be almost 43.5 when I get married. First time for us both and he's 52 already! Don't feel any different than I did 25 years ago (although back then I swore I'd never get married...!)
