Keep in mind all of your goals when thinking of the "right" age to get married. Women do better when getting pregnant and having children if they are younger, so I would say for that instance you should get married before your late 30s.

In general, I think there shouldn't be a set age that you plan to get married. If you just set a deadline age, then you are just settling for whoever you find at the time. That person might not be the best catch.

I plan to get married whenever it is I find a woman worth it. Sooner the better, if we have children, I'd like to see them grow up and do well for themselves.

The later you wait the better off you'll be. People change a LOT in their 20s nowadays and if I had to choose a perfect age to get married, I'd say 30 would be it. Personally though, I think marriage is an antiquated custom and its time has come and gone. It may be right for some, but if divorce rates are an indication it's obviously not right for about half of Americans. The fact that people still keep doing it just says there are a lot of hopeless romantics out there. How's that saying go about doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different outcome? That's my take on marriage.

My advice if you think you've found "the one" is to move in together for a few years and see if you can even tolerate being in each others space all the time. After the first year or two is when a lot of younger couples call it quits because they just can't deal with the other person that much of the day.

The second reason to wait and live together a few years is you're probably still renting anyway, so the fiscal benefits of marriage haven't manifested yet (namely the tax write-off of a home mortgage).

I would love to say that you should get married when you feel you have found the right person but some people don't understand relationships enough to know that. I think people should at least try to after 24 at least 24 being the earliest. The main reason I say that is because when you get marrie young you are still in the process of figuring out who you are you're going to be changing constantly and this person you're with is going to have to accept that to and it's a hard transition for a lot of people. So I would say wto wait until you're older and a little more mature before anyone thinks about tying the know for sure.

It's right when the people involved in the relationship feel it's right. For some, it's never right. For my boyfriend and I, as much as we love each other and plan to always be with each other, it will never be right just because neither of us feel the need to prove our love with a party and a piece of paper.

Personally, my preferred age ranges between 26-30. I think that being 18 now... I couldn't even imagine myself getting married and having a family before 26! lol

This being said... the reason I'd get married during this range would be because of my schooling. I am heading off to university pretty soon and my education is the most important thing to me... meaning I don't think that being married now would help me at all! and plus my career later on would be my main focus especially when its medical.

Also.. because of the maturity level and the experience over all with guys is also important. Mr.Right isn't anywhere near me right now and my experience isn't that high level-ed lol so maybe in couple more years. I'll be able to see who I can trust and who I can't!

But that's only my opinion... lots of people get married at 18! so at the end it depends on people's backgrounds, their situation in their love life, their commitment level and the 100% support from family and friends.

My preferred age for marriage (and this is just my opinion) is any age over 25. I feel like when you are under twenty you are still growing and learning about yourself.

If you have a high school sweetheart, I think you never get a chance to learn to be on your own. When you are in college, to me, it seems like some alternate reality of parties and good times, so when you just get out (around 22 or so), you need time to adjust and get back into the real world.

So for me, I say any age over 25. I will actually be 27 when I get married next year. Never thought I would be that old when I got married, but it makes sense and also we have more money to afford the wedding we want.
