Straight out of college and getting married ?

I’ll be close to 23 and my FH will be 24 when we get married. We’ve talked a lot about getting married at this age, and we both feel ready. We’ve had lots of life experiences apart from each other, and are financially stable on our own. I know a lot of people who got married at 18 or so, and who are very happily married. Personally, though, I’m just glad that we’ve lived and experienced things apart and are pretty confident in who we are as individuals. Now we just want to be together, though! So it’s time for us! 😄

I had always wanted to get married young, but I never found the right person. I will be 33 and my FH will be 26 when we get married.

I got married at 20 (while in college) on our 1 year anniversary, and I'm still in college. Our wedding is just short of a year after I graduate. My parents thought we were too young, but just wanted us to know it's a forever thing. Not a bored, so let's do something wild thing.

I think, if you know it's what you want, then all you can do is invite them. If they aren't supportive enough to at least show up, it's their loss.

We have loved each other from the start, so it was no question to marry each other. I wanted something private, and he wanted something showy with our friends and family. So, we did and are doing both.

I had graduated in May 2017 and got engaged March 2018, so I was pretty fresh out of college. We will be getting married in a few months and I'll be 24 and he will be 26. We don't have many friends/family members that got married young, but it felt like the right time for us! I only had a few people who questioned my decision ("Are you SURE you want to get married this young?" "Don't you want to travel before settling down?") My response was always, "I get the pleasure of growing with my fiance and get to travel the world with him!" Just turn any negative comment into a positive and show that getting married young doesn't mean you can't accomplish things or that your life is over. I look at it as a plus - I get to make even more memories with my spouse BECAUSE we are marrying young.

We are both 23 and turn 24 in a few months. We got married on our 9th anniversary and for us, I wouldn't say we were too young, but we have been through a lot together and still experienced some things on our own. We don't plan to have kids in the near future, so honestly not much is different than when we were dating. I don't think anyone can really determine if you're "old enough" but yourself. I do think that if you have a lot of people saying it to you though, it may be something to consider - what if they see something you don't while you're blindly in love? Like others have said, I'm excited that we get to have a whole life together because we got married this young! I also don't necessarily think you have to have your career figured out, but I would imagine it would be hard going from living/being supported by parents to being with your spouse.

I definitely understand. I got engaged a few weeks before I started my senior year of college. I graduated may of this year and started a full time job right out of college while planning my wedding and getting married in 13 days. No one has really mentioned the stress i may be dealing with but I've recognized it but still excited none the less. I'm also 24 so I spend a couple extra years in school. My fiance works full time. This is the first time I've worked full time so I'm very tired and drained, while also trying to get my money right. lol Let's just say, this honeymoon is necessary for us both. All this will pay off in the end and i'm grateful for it all! If it's right, you'll be fine. There are many people who get married before 25 and are happily married in their 80's. you change but love is a choice. you'll change betwee 35 and 60. It depends on you. If you're confident and have faith, you'll make the choice to love your man, everyday. that's what commitment is about. Love yourself first always and you'll be able to love another correctly.

I'm 20, in my junior year of college but planning on med-school, and my fiance is 23 with another 1.5 years as well. We're planning on getting married sooner just because it will make college cheaper and we already know we want to eventually.

I think what's important is keeping the present in mind, not being tied up with the future, but also remembering that you need to talk about future plans together before considering a life together. If your plans don't work well together, then you might want to reconsider.

I know my parents were a bit worried when he first mentioned it to them, but they are supportive and excited now. The rest of my family is just happy that I'm happy.

I know that we both have growing and changing to go through, but we've already changed so much since we first got together and I think we're stronger for having grown with each other.

Overall, everyone is different, and it's difficult to judge one relationship based on what happened with another. You guys know yourselves better than we ever will.

I got married during my college days. I'll say that all my relatives and friends supported me.
