I was a few weeks away from turning 20. Still don't feel that I was too young looking back, I was quite mature.
Still, 7 years later I look at some single people my age and don't think they are ready! I think it's such an individual thing...

I was 25 as was my DH. We were amongst the first of our friends to get married so looking back seems quite young!!

I was 24 and it totally felt the right time. We'd been together 7 years at the time.
One of the best days of my life.

I was 19 and have been married over 4 years now. I suppose it was very young, but i look at my uni friends who are the same age and realise i was a lot more mature!:shock: but i suppose being pregnant at the time made me grow up quite fast. I dont regret it atall:smile:
happy anniversery noo noo :flowers:

Happy anniversary Noo Noo!
I think I was born with an old head on young shoulders too. It seemed like the right time for us- (DH was 29) and we had been engaged since I was 22, I just look back sometimes and think "feck, I was a child bride!".
That said, I'm not sure I would do it differently.
My parents married at 18 and celebrated their 31st wedding anniversary this year!

Happy anniversary Noo Noo.
I was 26, Mr G was 28. I didn't think it was freakishly young but lots of people commented at the time. In fact someone told me just last week that I was far too young to be married????

Met DH at 27, married at 30 (he was 31)
It was definitely the right time for us.
I think if we'd met any earlier then we wouldn't have stayed together.

I was 26 and Dh was 30. Tha was nearly 3 years ago and had already been together 7 years and lived together for almost 3. If i hadnt been a skint student when we met and living 50 odd miles apart because I was at uni we would have done it much sooner but I have no regrets, we were happily unmarried and we are now happly married :smile:

I was 22, DH was 27. We'd been together 3 years. It does seem like such a young age, but it felt so right att. And we'll celebrate our 14th anniversary (and 17 years together) this autumn.

I was 23 and DH was 32, we'd been together for 5 years when we got married. I sometimes wish i'd waited til i was a bit older but we wanted to start a family because of DH's age so i'm POSITIVE we made the right decision. If DH had been the same age as me we'd have waited a few years i think!

I was 22, OH was 20. Sometime I do think I wish we'd waited - I think I wanted to do it because it was the logical next step iyswim?
We found out I was pregnant a few days later so I wish we'd saved all that money for Jack:doh:

I was 25, hubby 27. 4yrs in Sept. We'd known each other for just over a year, but only spent 3 months of that together!!:shock:
Stupidly in love though, more so now than ever.
We got married 2 days before my 21st birthday, DH was 25. We'd been together (and living together) for 4 years. That was 7 years ago, sometimes I find it hard to believe we've been together 11 years it makes me feel old - I'm only 27!:grin:

It's our 2nd anniversary on 4th June and we were both 27 when we got married. We'd only been together just over a year at that point. we actually moved in together after 2 weeks and it was the best decison I ever made!
I was 27 and DH was 29, we'd been together just over 2 years. We've been together 4 years this year and looking back it was a perfect time for us. I was the first of my friends to get married though even thought they all thought I'd be the last :laff:
My little brother is getting married this year and I think he's really young but best of luck to them, they seem so happy and in love :lurve: . She's 23 and he's 22.
I was 25, DH was 30 :smile: I was the first of my bunch to marry, but someone has to be first and I seemed to start a trend! :lol:
Which marriage? :teehee:
25 for the first, 39 second time.
About halfway between those two would have been ideal :laff:

I was 28 and OH was 27 (a toyboy!), but we have been together since he was 20 and he proposed when he was 23. Far younger to 'settle down' than any of our friends - although we didn't feel young at the time.

The first time I was 19 and he was 21. I was too young to know he was the wrong man.
The second time I was 22 and he was 37. It's our first anniversary next month, this one has already lasted longer than the last one did:oops:

I was 20 and he was 42.We went to Gretna Green. It sounds romantic and it was ,but we faced a lot of criticism from family and friends due to the age gap and that he had been married before.That was in 2001 and we are still together today and extremley happy.We have 1 daughter and family and friends have now accepted us.

Ahhhh that is our wedding anniversary :grin: Also just noticed your bubbas due date is the same as my Birthday - strange :grin:
I was 21 when I got married adn DH 25. I got married 1 month after I graduated :shock:
We bought our 1st house when I was just turning 20 though :shock:
Looking back I was sooooooooooooooooooo young but don't regret it for one moment.
Being a young bride made everything so perfect & magical, obviously none of my friends were married/getting married so there was no competitiveness etc we just did everything our way!
We went to St.Lucia on honeymoon which was amazing, neither of us had ever been to the Carribean before that so was true luxury.
We have been together for 8 years now and married for nearly 5. I have felt pressure that we should've waited till nowish to have got married and a couple of years down the line to be having our 1st baby, but why should I!!!!???
It's nice now aswell becoz a lot of our friends are starting to get married or hoping they will and we can sit back and enjoy it all!!
Also, even though they are just starting to get married they've still been with their OH's for the same length of time, I was just impatient :wink:
