Are there any young brides out there? 18-24 how is your wedding planning going so far? Are any of you getting any negative comments or just happy ones? Congratulations to all who are getting married I know how excited I am! Just curious to see how everyone else is handling this process.

*Update*

I apologize if anyone thought I was being rude or calling them old. I was just looking for people around my age to comment to see what they were feeling and what not. Thank you to all the people who did comment and were helpful!

    This thread is just overflowing with the maturity of "young" brides.

    I guess I'm old as shit.

    I will never understand why some children think that it's acceptable to get married. What's the harm in waiting? Definitely wait until after college.

    I'm 30, so I'm technically an "old bride," I guess (although FH is 46, so we joke all the time about how young I am!). If I had married the person I was with between the ages 17-24 I would be miserable. We were together for 7 years and had started to talk about marriage, but I realized that I would have reservations saying "Yes" if he asked me, and that I definitely did not want him to be the father of my children. I met FH shortly thereafter, and probably we would have gotten married sooner if it hadn't been for his working overseas for 3 years. It's all worked out perfectly in the end, though.

    My brother and SIL got married last year. They were both juniors in college. I'll be perfectly honest and say that I worry a lot about them. Learning to adult is hard.

    As someone who got married at 21, I agree with the majority. Wait a bit, travel, find yourself (mind you this a continuous process)

    I am still married. We are celebrating our ten year vow renewal this year.

    Kassandra, people have a sense of humor that is quite snarky on here.

    What people don't have a tolerance for is treating this like an aol chat room from 97 with abbreviations/lack of punctuation and any sense of entitlement regarding other people funding a couples wedding.

    We got engaged at 21, will be married at 22. We will have been together almost seven years by then. We've gotten lots of happy comments and pretty much everyone in our lives was expecting it to happen sooner or later Smiley smile

    "But you were mean first" tells me you aren't mature enough to get married.
