    I was 26 and he was 34 when we got engaged. We were together 4 months as a couple, but had known each other for over a year. It was a 3 month engagement. Our third anniversary is this April. :love:

    Writing it out it seems so quick, but we are such a matched pair it didn't seem that rushed. I will say however, I didn't want to live together until we were married. Otherwise, I'm sure it would have been at least a year-long engagement. :)

    We got engaged four months after we met. We were 25 years old. We got married 8 months later (almost a year to the date of meeting one another.) We were both 26 y/o when we said "i do." It's been 7 years of happy crazy-in-love marriage. I wouldn't have changed anything except... I would have done it all even faster if I could have.

    We met when we were both 23. We were together for 7 years before getting married (we were married on our 7-year dating anniversary). We got engaged 10 months before our wedding. We'll be celebrating 15 years together and 8 years married next month. Every day gets better and better. Every moment I get to spend with him is a complete gift. :)
