My wedding was a month ago. I am 21 years old. Alot of people are surprised and think I am "young" to be married. I personally believe a good age to get married is however old you are when you fall in love and meet the person you are meant to spend your life with. What do you think is a good age to get married?

21 is the right age for marriage. I feel 25 is the good age for marriage.

I got married not even 2 weeks after my 18th birthday and we have been married now for 7 years. It really depends on both of the people getting married and their ideas and value of marriage. I went it not believing in divorce, unless it was something extreme. I would not get divorced over silly arguments and so on. I was dedicated to making it work. Not to say I give in to my hubby. I'm a fighter and I make my point well known but we work together to get things done, to raise our kids, and to support each other.

No i think the right age is around 22-24 More over when u are self dependent and can take care of ur family kids then only u should marry.

I think 21 is to early. I think that you should wait and experience life a little. You are going to be spending the rest of ur life with this individual and u have to go out and sew ur oats as they say. I think this is why the institution of marriage is decaying because people don't understand how serious it is.

I think it is a nice age to get married, your ready to share your life together with the one you love and fit in so many years of happyness! Congratulations!!! I dont think there is a right or wrong time to get married i just think that as long as your sure and you love them with all your heart and you help each other achive your goals in life then go for it, Some people might find that special someone when they are younger, others might take years to find the one they want to marry.

Age doesnt matter much. You may want to get married when you are ready mentally, physically and financially. They are the useful facts that you have to face in every day of ur marriage life.

I think marriage is a very good institution - but who wants to spend the rest of their life in an institution. I have never been married, yet I have never been alone for longer than six montha in the last 40 years.

I’m 23 and people tell me the same thing. Once you are mature enough and responsible enough, and sure this is the person you want to marry, that’s fine. I think once you reach your twenties you should be mature enough to get married.
