I've heard 11 a.m. is perfect. No worry on the part of guests about black tie and from what I understand, wedding lunch menus are a significant savings over dinner menus. Plus, you get the natural lighting for the photos.
It varies. Some get married young, and stay married and compatible.
Others marry young, and then as they finish growing and exploring, they become different people, and now it's no longer the same, and they are not properly matched.
It just depends. My friend and her boyfriend want to get married. But she's stated they are waiting until they finish school and get their careers going before they take that step.
I do think it's best to get married once you have everything together. Then planning a wedding, and dealing with the financial aspect will be a bit easier since you're already at a secure place in life. Gives a nice foundation to start from. Rather than getting married just out of HS, with limited money, and your lives aren't together yet.
You should be 34.4 years old and have been together a minimum of 8.75 years before getting married. I'm not married myself but the above statistics will apply to me at the time I do get officially married so it must be right for everyone.
There is no formula, it all depends on the people involved.
My late husband and I got married when I was about 33. We had already been together for 8 years, I didn't really care about marriage until it had a financial impact.
My current husband and I have been married for 3.5 years (about 46 years old) and dated for about 2 before that.

When is the right time to get married? Should you get married young like teens 16-18 or older in your early to mid or late 20s, or past then in your 30s or 40s or does it not even matter? Should you get married when your life is put together, i.e. have a college degree, job, car, own place like a house or apartment etc. OR should you be married in a certain amount of time, like I've heard if you've been in a relationship thats lasted more than 1 year, then you should get married, or the guy should already have purposed to you. What do you think? How many of you are married? When did you get married? Are you happy in your marriage, are you happy you got married in the first place? Thoughts and comments below!
WAY over-thinking, OP! Don't worry about the "shoulds". Just live your life, look for a good partner, and take it from there. But yes, generally, it's helpful to have a job and a degree, though not absolutely necessary. You don't need to own your own place, but it helps to be self-supporting and responsible.
If you're asking "when should you get married?"...... you shouldn't be getting married.

I want to get married someday its always been a dream of mine and when I will have sexual intercourse.
I don't think the ability to have intercourse should be a factor in deciding whether or not to get married.
