    When we got engaged, I was 30, my husband was 30. When we got married I was 31 and he was 30. We'd been together just over 2 years (but best friends for 20 years). We're still happily married and it's been 1 year and 8 months

    See above

    I was 28 when my now husband proposed. We got married a year later (29 years old). We had been together for 9 years (with a brief hiatus). I am proud to say that this year marks our fifth wedding anniversary and our sons' fourth birthday! Best of luck with your class.
