How long were you together before you got engaged? How long was/is your engagement?

I’m curious and look forward to hearing from you! My fiancé and I were together 5 years when she proposed to me, a year later I proposed to her and we will have been engaged for 2.5 years by the time we get married ❤️

    Awww that’s so sweet! ☺️ My fiancé and I had been together for nearly four years when he proposed. That was back in December and we are getting married this October, so a little over 10 months. 💕

    Over 12 years of being together when I proposed. Our engagement will be 17 months and we'll have been together 14 years at the point we are married. First time brides too.

    Fun story! My FH and I knew each other and were best friends for a year before we started dating. I always was crazy about him but we never made any moves. Until he asked me for my dads phone number and called him to ask my hand in marriage. Yup. He initially told me that he asked my dad if we could date and my dad (who was in on it) confirmed the story so we "dated" for a week until BAM he proposed. After one week! We got civily married a month after that because it just felt right. Now we are doing a big church marriage on our one year anniversary! So we've only been together for a year but have had feelings for 2. When you know, you know I guess lol

    Technically 3 months, officially about 2.5 years. He wanted me to move in, I didnt want that unless we were engaged, he proposed, but it wasnt anything ~official~ (aka, no ring, and he hadnt met my family) and I told him to get back to me later after he thought more about it, lol. No need to rush into things that early! But he was willing to wait until I was more comfortable. He likes to joke that I "turned him down" the first time. 😂

    We decided to make it official about 8 months after we met, but we'd decided a while before then that it'd be a good idea to get married. So our engagement is going to last a whole lot longer than the early part of our relationship!

    We were together 1 year and 2 months when he proposed to me. Engaged for 2 years and marrying in September on 21st .

    I asked him unofficially early on and we were talking about it loads. I asked him why he asked me at the time he did and if he would have done it sooner. He said he would have asked me at 3 months of the relationship but due to family trouble/mental health and fear of me saying g no for being to early, he waited.

    He had no plan of how to ask so he just came out with it when we were enjoying a few drinks with each other at home.

    I wouldn't change it though
