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?

    We were engaged for 6 months. We planned our wedding in 6 months. I’m so happy we did. However we were together for 5 years. We didn’t want to wait any longer. 6 months felt like way too long!

    I would be insane trying to plan a wedding in that amount of time, but I have a good friend who did it easily

    22 months- I wanted a specific month and that month this year felt way too soon due to how busy we are and wanting to save up money so we’re waiting till 2019. By the time we get married we will have been together about 7.5 years.

    We dated for 3 years before we got engaged. Got engaged end of July and getting married April 1st, 7 months later. I didn’t want a long engagement but didn’t want to rush planning a wedding so the 6-7 month turnaround worked best. So far it has not been stressful and we are having an elegant wedding with 150 guests.

    I thought 6 months was going to be the max amount of time I could handle being engaged.... LOL

    We just moved our wedding back another year, so we will have been engaged for over two years by the time we get married.

    When we get married on our dating date, we will be together 6 years but engaged for 25 months. My biggest thing was saving money and taking the time to plan. The only anxiety I got was picking a venue because I thought most of them sucked lol

    Our engagement will be 23 months when we get married. We knew we wanted Fall, and didn't want to rush under a year as we were buying a house and FH started a new job. We will have been together a little over 4 years by then,

    We had been together for seven years, engaged for four months. Planning wasn't too bad, everything went smoothly.

    I don’t feel so bad now. I thought I might be the only person that had done this same thing but I guess not. Mine was 9 years and same reason.
