Am i too old for this stuff?

There’s no such thing as too old for a wedding. You deserve to celebrate your love just as much as a 23 year old.

No! Never too old to celebrate your love

Absolutely not too old! Just because you found your person later in life doesn’t mean you don’t deserve to have the wedding of your dreams! Enjoy every moment of it!!

NO! You’re the perfect age! You’ve never been married! This is your time to be the bride! Also, 42 is really not that old. You’re going to have an amazing day!

I just got married for the first time at 39 a week ago. Our wedding was smaller and simpler because of budget but never once did I make decisions based on my age and really I don't feel old.

I think with age and maturity hopefully comes some wisdom and life experience and with that hopefully less drama. But you can totally do whatever you and your FH want to do for your wedding. No age limitations. And I am sure all your friends and family will just love to celebrate with you.

Love this. Completely agree!

I hate that society makes us feel bad for not getting married younger. I am 31 and been with my fiancé for 12 years, I know there is an age difference between you and me but people act the same with us. We are planning on a 2022 wedding.

THIS!!!!

My uncle and aunt got married 3,5 years ago (and never got married before) ...

they were 52 and 50 by the time!

SO 18,30 or 60: Who cares? As long as the 2 of you are happy!!

You’re definitely overthinking this! I’m 51 & have been married before. He’s 49 & has never been married. He wanted the whole wedding/ party & at first I dragged my feet on it. The more I started planning, the more I loved the idea of a wedding! We’ve been planning for 21 months & are getting married this Saturday!

Absolutely not! I'm 39, I never dreamed of getting married or what my wedding day would look like. I kept trying to plan an elopement, but wanted more bridal elements. We are now having a small wedding, planned for this Saturday! Although it has been stressful, it really is such a great moment/memory that we will always have. Plan away! Don't feel bad for getting excited either.

I’m an older bride as well, 49, and marrying for the first time in a few months. My fiancé is 53 and this his first time getting married too. Initially we thought about eloping but I quickly changed my mind. There was no way I was going to rob myself of my special day. Our wedding will be small at around 100 guests (that’s small for us🙂) without a bridal party. My planning would have looked totally different if I were 20 years younger....large bridal party, 250+ guests, etc. Because of my age I’m more financially stable and able to afford a really nice wedding and wise enough not to break the bank. My family and friends are really excited for me as well. I’m also very pleased they will be able to witness our special day. Bottom line, you should whatever makes you happy without fear of any ageism.

When I was a videographer, we had several brides in their late 50s. Many of them had more relaxed, fun weddings (like one who took everyone for a sunset sail for the cocktail hour) because they felt free from the trappings of modern bridal media telling them how to have a wedding. You're less likely to have parents bullying you about what it should be like, friends whose weddings you feel like you have to compare to, etc.

Weddings do not belong to 20-somethings. If you want to have something more, then go for it. To quote the youngins, you only live once.

View Quoted Comment Hi and no it doesn't matter what age you are I am planning our wedding also never been married either and I and we are both 48yrs old and we have been together for about 13 years. And next once we get married our birthday's will be coming a few months after lol lol and we will be 50yrs. Its wondering feeling to try on wedding dresses and to see all the Congratulations. But trying to find a venue that wont make us poor afterwards or doing. Some are abit pricing we even cut down our guest list for cost. This the one next to my wedding party being picking about there dresses stressing me out

I'm 45, was a covid bride so by the time I actually get married I'll be 46. First marriage. I say do what you want. I want the wedding, with my little niece as my flower girl, with my family all around. What I don't need is a large bachelorette, or to have the party go till 4am. Decide what pieces are important to you and forget about the rest.

Agree with this

Heck no! I'm 43 and this is my first marriage we've been together for 14 years. We were supposed to get married last year but there was that COVID thing. This year we are doing the wedding we want. I look at it as we are in a better place financially and we know what we want without drama! Your day will be great don't doubt yourself and enjoy the planning process

I got married 16 days ago at 44. Big fancy dress and all. Our wedding was small because that’s how we wanted it but age makes no difference on the wedding you want. Have the wedding you and your FH want to have with all the bells and whistles or just some of them. Make it yours.

You’re never too old!

No you are not to old, there is no age limit to weddings. You celebrate however you want and enjoy every minute of it. It's your day and you are the bride have fun. Also congratulations.

I’m 52, he’s 62 and I thought the same. But then how excited my kids were when I brought it up, and my friends, and decided that enough people are excited, I can’t be too bad, right?
My bff just bought a cricut and tried to blame me ROLF she said she “needs” it for my wedding.
People who love you will share your joy!
