Just for fun, I was wondering what is the average age for engagement and marriage is
What age do you plan on being engaged at and his age...

And how long after that do you plan to marry?

For me, we will be getting engaged sometime early next year because custom making a ring around the holiday is tough. So, I will be nearly 24 and he will be 29.
We''re planning on getting married possibly 1.5 years later in August 08
So I will be 25 and he will be 30
 
We are hoping to get engaged summer of next year. I will be 25 and he will nearly be 27. As Ive just started back at college and will be here for another 5 years we will have a 2 year engagement and will get married summer of 2009, depending on the money situation!
 
Engaged 1st time at 19 and 22 (what were we thinking??????????)
After a canceled wedding and some growing up I am expecting a new egagement any day now ( the ring is in the house) We are now 23 and 26. Our wedding is booked for May 25 2008 and we will be 24 and 27!
 
this was over 16 years ago..

Got engaged at 24 in December of 1989, got married the next August so I was still 24...
 
Mustang,

I was 23 and he was 24 when we got engaged. We''re planning a June 2008 wedding (1.5 years later), which will make me just 25 and him almost 26.

Hope things are going well with your custom ring!!

Aussie : p
 
Engaged in December 2005. We were 28 and 37. Married in August 2006. We were 29 and 38.

I was engaged once before, to a different man, and called it off. I was 23 and he was 22. We would have been married when we were 24 and 23.
 
Engaged this year (I was 24, he was 25)
Married next year (I will be 25, he will be 26)
 
We got engaged when I was 24 & he was 25, we will each be 2 years older by the time we get married 1.5 years later, b/c of the way both our birthdays fall just before the wedding date. We had been together bit over 3 years (and then friends before that, and dating briefly several years before) when we got engaged.
 
I was 26 and he was 27, (last March). I''ll be two days shy of 28 and he''ll be 28 on our wedding day (next November). His b-day is in February.
 
Engaged once before (to a different guy...my teenage year''s sweetheart!)...I was 21 (or 22). Sweet first love...but we were just young and naive!..hehe. He was 27 (or 28). To this day (9 years later) I know that if I ever went back home and asked him to marry me, he would in a heart beat!!...he''s such a great guy, but he''s just not the one for *me*


With my BF

...I''m almost sure I will *stil*l be 29 by the time we get engaged..haha....and we are planning on getting married in 2007...so I will be 30. He''s 33, will be 34 when we get married.

Did I mention I''m not looking forward to turning 30??

M~
 
We got engaged this year, me 29, him 30, and are getting married next year, me 30, him 31. He turns 32 about two weeks after our wedding.


ETA: We met when I was 25 and he was 27.
 
When we were engaged (last November), I was 22 and he was 23.

When we get married, I''ll be 24 and he''ll be 25.
 
Engaged at 25 on x-mas eve, married the following September at age 26.
 
We'll be engaged sometime this winter (he just ordered the setting!!), both of us are 22 (and will still be when we get engaged... unless he waits past his bday in April
25.gif
). Probably married October 2008, so he'd be 24 and I'll be one month shy of 24.
 
We were engaged last summer at 21/24 and will be married in fall 2008 at 23/26.
 
We were engaged and married within 6 weeks - I was 30, and he was 26, almost 27.
 
If all goes according to plan, we''ll be engaged when I am 29 and he is 26.
We''ll be married when I am 30 and he''s 27.
Most people think he''s older though!
 
We were both 25 when we got engaged (then we each turned a year older in the following 2 weeks). We will probably get married in about 1.5 years. We''ll both be 27.
 
i feel sooooooooo old. i think i''m the oldest on this board! (let''s just say i''m in my 30''s and my fi is older).

ah well, an old bride is still an happy bride!
 
We became engaged in April 2006 and I was 22, he was 24.

We''re getting marrried next month! I''ll be 23, and he''ll turn 25 two days after the wedding

We got engaged when I was 23 (still am) and FI had just turned 24. When we get married I will be 24 and FI will be 25.
 
Janinegirly, I bet you are not the oldest one on this board!!!! I have an 8 year old and was married before, if that gives you any clue to my age! But, it sure does seem like everyone is YOUNG now that I see ages written in black and white!
 
Met: 23 (me) and 25 (him) - February 2003
Engaged: 26 and 28 - June 2006
Married: 27 and 29 - May 2007

Uh, I swear I don''t feel old, but I am feeling your pain Janinegirly...everyone seems to be engaged so young (but it''s probably my old perspective!)

Engaged at 33, him 34. Married 5 months later (actually 7 months from when we set the date, but we weren''t formally engaged) and we were still the same ages as engagement.
 
Met: Me - 32, Him - 29
Now: Me - 34, Him - 32

I hope the engagement is before I turn 35 in August - or else....

Realistically, hoping for wedding in 2008 when I will be 36

Does that make you feel better Janine?

Yes''m! Shoud be done in May 08 (9 months after "I do")...but then there''s the possibility of Grad school.
 
thanks for sharing everyone

I got engaged the first time at 17!!!! after a year and a half of dating
we stayed together for 5 years, but it just didn''t work for many reasons.

hopefully the second time around I''ve gotten it right
