    Same! We actually started talking either at the end of March or beginning of April, started dating in May, and then 2021 will be our 4 year anniversary. We are planning on getting married the week of our anniversary.

    I met my fiance when I was going to community college, back in 2016. We dated for 2 years before he proposed to me in Reno (it was our 2 year anniversary trip). We've been engaged for 2 years while expecting to get married in August 2020...although that fell through (thanks Covid). We didn't let that stop us though. We eloped at city hall and decided to throw the "wedding" next April

    Hey, cool. Yes we got engaged 8 months after being together but by the time we get married we would have been together 4 months shy of our 2 year anniversary of being together because it is next summer.

    We started dating in December 2012. We bought a house together in New Orleans, in 2015 about 70 miles from where we met. We renovated that house for almost a year. Everyone said if we could survive that we were meant to be. He knew I was particular so he let me look at rings on my own before I showed him my favorite jewelers and the styles. From there, COVID happened and he proposed to me while walking in the French Quarter along the Mississippi River in July 2020. I was completely surprised and moved. We are planning a December 2021 wedding. So, many a year and he is totally worth it!

    We were together 6 years before he proposed but we started dating at 16 so we've been in school the whole time we've been dating and we finally got to the point where we'd be able to have a wedding so he proposed. We are waiting until 2022 for 2 reasons. Our venue didn't have any dates open in fall when we want the wedding and my brother is in the navy and will be on tour without leave during our date so we moved it back a year.

    My husband and I started dating March 29, 2011. Got engaged April 21, 2018 and married September 7, 2019
    But we were high school sweethearts so waiting that long was appropriate for us since we started dating so young. My husband waited for us to both we done with college

    Waited 6 years to be engaged, and it will be 4 years of engagement. We are high school sweethearts and have 3 kids together. We are still young and have been taking the wedding things slow so we can focus on our family and our already amazing life together. We can’t wait to be officially married but he’s always been my husband in my eyes.
