My wedding is right around the corner and whenever I tell people or have told people in the past I’m getting married soon their 1st question is always how old are you? I was 22 when he proposed and I will still be 22 when I marry my husband but I guess I do look kinda young. when I went wedding...

Or how old will you be when you get married? And do you think the age of when you get married really matters?

    I was 21 and he was 23 when we got engaged and I will be 23 and he will be 24 when we get married in November. I had the same problem at the bridal salon because not only am I short 4' 11" to be exact, I don't look my age at all so they also thought I was prom dress shopping. When people ask about the wedding and our age I tell them it is only a number and marriage has no age restrictions.

    This is my second marriage. I was 22 for my first one by a month and my ex was 23. People used to marry at 17 and it wasn't a big deal back then so idk why everyone is so surprised when someone is in their early 20s. Lol This time around I am 34 and my fiance is turning 36 three days before the wedding.

    I'll be 25, my fiance will be 29. The two weddings I've been in were young weddings (one the bride was 21, groom was 20, the other the bride was 23, groom was 22). I wouldn't worry!

    FH proposed on my 50th birthday, he had just turned 50 a few months before. When we get married, I'll be 52, and he'll be 53.

    I was freshly 21 when I met my FH, he was almost 23. I was 22 when he proposed and he was 24. We will be married when I am 25 and he is 26 (two months from 27).
    I don't know if I'm young or old for getting married. It's all over the place with our friends and family!

    We got engaged at 20 and will be getting married in 84 Days at age 22! He will be about 6 weeks away from turning 23. We have been together since we were 16 and living on our own supporting ourselves since we were 19.
