Married under 25

My fiance and I are 22 and 23! We've gotten comments, but dont really pay attention to them much now. I think once we started actually planning and getting serious about getting married, that's when the comments stopped

If you know that you guys can make it and that you love each other do it. At the end of the day it won't matter what anyone else says because it's your choice. I met my fiance when I was 15 we were really good friends then we started dating after a while. Finally after three years and 6 months he proposed because he knew he could take care of me. And we both knew that no matter what we would overcome any obstacles and grow together. He loves seeing the person I'm growing into and I him. It boils down to will you both be willing to do the same and not just say you will but actually do it. I'm not going to lie it will be hard money, emotionally wise, stress, school, work. All of that will be something you both deal with. I'm not trying to be harsh I just don't want anyone's marriage to go astray and I want you to succeed.

Everyone is different so I wouldn't worry about it. I know people in their 30s that still depend financially on their parents and should 100% not be getting married. As long as you are able to be adults in all other aspects, I think it's totally fine.

I don't think age 25 has anything to do with it aha. I got married at 25 and a lot of my friends said that felt young because it still is.

I got married at 22 and it was the best decision i’ve made. it all boils down to maturity in many ways and the motives behind wanting to get married!

FH and I were 19 and 20 when we met. We will both be 24 (almost 25) when we are married. The first couple months were rocky, and we even split the first summer apart. But as soon as school started up for our junior year we were back together again. By Christmas he had given me a promise ring and we knew at some point we would be married. We talked and decided we wouldn't get engaged until after we graduated (as hard as I tried to change it), for several reasons. The main one being that, although we knew we wanted to be together, graduating gave us opportunities we didn't know we would have. Luckily, we ended up in the same city. Fiances were always a big thing too. As soon as we graduated we sat down and figured out who was going to pay for what and how. Even to this day we sit down weekly and discuss our situation. Even after we got engaged, we are waiting almost two and a half years to get married. We just both want to make sure we are at the right stage in our life, and if we really are going to be together forever, there isn't a need for us to rush.

My fiancé and I will both be 20! I think doubting your decision to get married because society expects you to be older is so real. But once you say “yes” you gotta fully commit to it and stop caring what other people say! I love my fiancé with all my heart, we’ve been dating for years and have been through highschool and long distance in college together and we’re ready to be married. In my experience, sometimes people who regret their own young marriages or were immature at that age will push their own insecurities onto you and act disapprovingly. But it’s your life and your own relationship! I would encourage you to talk to friends and family, my fiancé and I have tons of support from people in our lives and it’s so reassuring. Do premarital counseling! It has helped me learn so much about our relationship and some things we may need to work through in our marriage. Make sure you have a plan for finances/school and responsible enough to deal with the stress of that. Good luck and congrats!!

I think age is just a number. I've been with my FH since high school. We went off to college together and got engaged a couple weeks after I graduated. We both have good paying, full time jobs. My parents requested that we wait until we were both out of college to get married and I am so glad we did. There's a lot to learn in your late teens and early 20's. We've both had time to grow up, learn how to manage finances, and figure out who we are as individual people. He gradated a year before I did from college so we did distance in that year. I think that was a turning point in our relationship because we'd always lived a couple miles apart and this gave us the opportunity to really be independent. It's nice to have someone to lean on but it's all important that you're able to stand on your own two feet. We'll both be 23, almost 24, when we get married. Some would still say that's really young. If you feel like you're solid in all aspects of your relationship, I say go for it! If there's even the slightest bit of doubt (maturity, finances, etc.) I'd have a long engagement. If you're both really ready to commit, he'll still be there in a year or two.

I'm 18 and my fiance is 22. Nothing wrong getting married young especially for women. I consider myself lucky to have found the one so early in life. Plus getting married young gives you more time to travel and get to know each other before having kids and such.

Listen, I got married to my high school sweetheart the same month I graduated. I was 18 and he was 19. June 27th of next year we’ll be married 5 years. I’m on this app because I’m planning a special vow renewal for us. We have definitely changed over these few years, and we have had our hardships. But, I can honestly say that our love only continues to grow for one another and I believe that accepting Jesus into our lives has been the glue that had held us together and helped us to grow in love. I love my husband very much and I was also upset at others who seemed to feel that our age made us less likely to stay in love or persevere. I understand some of the reasoning behind that concern, but I can honestly say my marriage has been evidence to the contrary and I’d do it all over again in a heart beat, perhaps even marry him sooner if given the chance😉😊

FH and I will both be 22 when we get married.

We met at 16 and have grown so much over the past 6 years of our relationship! I consider us lucky that we got to grow through our awkward teenage years into our mature, financially independent, selves that we are today!

There's plenty of people that get married at a young age and it lasts. As long as you both are 100% sure you want to make the commitment and can meet your basic needs (ie: rent/mortgage, food, utilities, emergency fund, etc). I don't think you need to wait until any "perfect" age to get married.

I'm 21 and my fiance is turning 28, and I wouldn't have it any other way! I don't think it's something you need to worry about unless you aren't financially stable, because at your ages most people go to college, but if one or both of you are working a decent paying job that can pay for living expenses for the both of you, you should be fine!

My brother and sister and law got married at 21!
It is just often hard to balance everything going on when you’re in your early 20s, but if you believe you and your fiancé feel that you are ready for this step, do what is best for you!

Also we have the same wedding date so that’s awesome!😎

Can you support yourselves, can you live together successfully for at least six months. Those are my main two things I think are more important than age. I was engaged when I was 21 but it was a mistake for me and I broke it off. I’m so relieved I did and my life turned out so much better. I think he’s happier too and he’s married to someone else now. But I couldn’t answer yes to those questions. And I’ve broken it off with other boyfriends who I did love and looked good on paper but I couldn’t live with them and be happy.

They say “you know when you know”. As long as you are sure, I don’t see an issue with it. One of my friends got married our senior year of high school and her and her husband are still together, 3 children later and are happy as ever. I will say, they were encouraged to go through counseling before getting married. They did, and they said it helped. Maybe look into some pre-marital counseling. As many others have said, marriage (as I’m sure you know), is a life long commitment.

Every couple is different. My best friend from high school met her husband our senior year, and they are still happily married with 3 children. Not to say that it wasn’t a struggle at first, but it is doable. I got engaged at 17, boyfriend proposed at senior prom, and that didn’t even make it through the first semester of college. Now, almost 10 years later, I’m happily engaged to an incredible man. I would strongly suggest pre-marital counseling, being that you are on the younger side and life is hard. Congratulations and best wishes to you.

I got married at 19 but my husband is 25 we’re happily married

There isn't a rule saying what age you have to wait to get married. Haha. I'm not sure why people think everyone should wait forever to get married. My fiance will be 26 when we get married and I will be 24 (it's the day right before my birthday ). I wouldn't have waited had my FH proposed earlier (we've been together for 4 years) just because I am under 25. Every relationship is different and at their own pace, so don't let those comments bother you.

When I get married I’ll be 24 and FH will be 25 and we STILL get people commenting on how we’re too young. People are going to talk no matter how old you are. If you wait people will talk and you don’t they’ll talk. Just trust your own instinct. That’s the only one that really matters!
