    Our engagement will be less than 2 years, we've been dating 4.5 at this point and will be over 5 by the time we get married.

    Engaged stage is shorter. Engagement is 16 months, whereas we dated 3 years before he proposed.

    Engaged stage will be shorter for us. 4 years dating, and it'll be 1 year and like 4 months engaged when we get married.

    We were dating around 1 year, 7 months when he proposed, beginning of March 2019 (the 2nd), and we're getting married in March 2020 (the 7th).

    So, our engagement is shorter! We debated just a court house elopement but it's a special day and decided to do the whole actual wedding thing.

    Dating. We dated for about 5 months before getting engaged. And we'll be engaged for a little under 2 years.
