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?

    Not me, but "way back when" - friends of mine met each other on Friday and got married the following Wednesday. They've been married over 30 years, and are supremely happy! However, I wouldn't advise doing things this fast, but it did work for them.

    That's crazy but very sweet. Can't imagine anyone doing that today but I'm sure there's still the odd occurrence!

    A year and a week! I thought that was going to be crazy to plan in 12 months, but it's less stressful than I had imagined, and I would have been okay with a few months less. I am also far less busy with work and school than I'm used to right now, so things have been easier.

    1.5 years of engagement because we moved from Europe to Central America and also wanted to give our European friends time to save for their flights. I enjoy having a lot of time to get things done!

    We were together for a year and on our one year anniversary this past December, he proposed! After we're married (on July 7) our engagement will have been 7 months long! A little less than 4 months to go!

    My engagement will probably be around 2 or 3 years. We have a rough date (shown here) but are unsure money wise that it will work out.
