How Long Is Your Engagement?

How long will it be from the day you got engaged until the day you get married? My husband and I originally planned for a one year engagement, but thanks to COVID, it turned into a three year engagement!

    I think 2 years is ideal! My initial engagement length was supposed to be one year (which felt like it was too short for me), but turned into three years (which felt too long). Two years seemed like it would have been perfect. How is your wedding planning going so far?

    Still finishing school, so not much has gotten done. It’s our last semester, so we plan on starting in the summer after our yearly camping trip. We also might move out of state for my fiancé’s new job offer, so we might have to wait till end of summer.

    That makes sense! It also gives you time to enjoy the engagement without immediately jumping into wedding planning, and also gives you time to really consider what you both envision before committing to specific wedding plans.

    I got engaged in November and the wedding will be in October. Almost exactly 11 months. So far so good.

    That seems like a good length for an engagement!

    We got engaged in December of 2018 and we were supposed to get married in August of 2020 but it got postponed because of Covid. So we ended up getting married in April of 2021.

    Ours will be a little over three months (September 3 - December 16). I’ve been joking that, “It’s not a shotgun situation; I’m just trying to get down the aisle before his feet get cold!” 😂 We had both agreed that we wanted a short engagement.
