If you count from the date he popped the question, then we will have been engaged for 16 months so over. If you count from the start of wedding planning, then it's under because we didn't start really planning until about 2 months ago.

Over 14 months (Nov 2018; Wedding June 2020). For several reason's weddings are Speedy! Need time to build up the $ to pay for everything. Thankfully I've been able to handle the deposits so far! Also, had a specific date in mind, had to push it out a year to be able to find a venue with the date available,

We were in the process of moving and weren't in a position to think about the wedding at the moment. Plus we wanted to save as much as we could before hand to cut down on stress and problems.

Is there a specific reason why you're having a long engagement, Claudia, or is that just how the cards fell into place?
