How long is your engagement?

A friend of mine met her husband, got engaged and married in a matter of 6 months and it got me thinking how stressed I would be if I planned a wedding in the 2 1/2 month time frame that she did.

A friend of mine met her husband, got engaged and married in a matter of 6 months and it got me thinking how stressed I would be if I planned a wedding in the 2 1/2 month time frame that she did. My FH and I have been together for 5 1/2 years and when we get married we will have been engaged for 1 year and 4 months. How long is your engagement?

    Mine is the same length as yours! Because our wedding is in 2019, people keep commenting on our "long engagement", which I think is pretty silly - it's a little over a year!. We got engaged in December and don't want to get married in the dead of winter. Fall 2018 was already booked, so early spring 2019 it is!

    When we get married we will have been engaged for 27 months. While longer than average it meant we could get everything we wanted for the wedding, all the best vendors, venue, etc.

    I have been with FH for 6 years. We got engaged in February last year, and we are getting married in March of this year. So our engagement will be 1 year and 1 month long.

    I definitely wouldn't be able to plan a wedding for myself in that short amount of time. I was busy trying to finish college and graduate. Aside from finding a wedding venue and picking a date, I didn't even start planning our wedding until July of last year.

    We were engaged for 1080 days, just a few days shy of three years. Planning was a breeze!

    My engagement is exactly 6 months and we had been dating for a year and a half before we got engaged. My MOH's engagement is about 20 months and they've been dating for over t years. It really is just a matter of personal preference. There's no right or wrong time frame.
