Personally, I think it is best to wait about 2-3 years. You and your partner would need to get adjusted to each other first before you add a new member to your family. I do not think it is wise to wait further than 3 years, though. Because there are more benefits when you have children while you are still both young like you lessen the generation gap, you can still enjoy your kids while you are still young and when we have our children when we are younger, we can be assured of less pregnancy and child birth complications.
Anyways, it is still your choice. Do what you feel is right for you and your partner. :)

There is no right time to have kids. But, it is a good thing that you are waiting until marriage. If you and your partner are ready to have children and you are financially stable then I say go for it. I think yuo may want to ask your parents. After all they have done it before and can give you an experienced answer. Just don't try to have kids to save your marriage.

There is no "right" amount of time to wait. There will probably never be a perfect time to have a baby. Just make sure relationship is really strong, and enjoy spending time with one another.

yeah 2 - 5 yrs depending how old YOU are (mom to be). If you're 30 go ahead and have a kid before the chance for down's syndrome kicks in. If youre only 25 then wait a few years!!

I think a couple of years is a good idea. You need the time to develop as a couple. I know I didn't have that time with my ex boyfriend and we ended up not marrying after the birth of our child.

THAT ALL DEPENDS ON YOU...SOME FACTORS MAY INCLUDE BEING FINANCIALLY AND EMOTIONALLY READY, YOU MAY NOT WANT TO HAVE CHILDREN RIGHT OFF SO YOU CAN HAVE SOME ALONE TIME BEFORE CHILDREN ARE IN THE PICTURE. IN MY OPINION, I WOULDN'T WANT TO HAVE CHILDREN TO LATE IN LIFE, I THINK BETWEEN THE AGES OF 24 AND 29 ARE IDEAL BECAUSE YOUR NEITHER TO YOUNG NOR TOO OLD, I WAS 22 WHEN ME AND MY HUSBAND CONCEIVED AND 23 WHEN I HAD HIM, I THOUGHT I WAS A LITTLE TOO YOUNG BUT NEVERTHELESS, I WAS HAPPY! ....YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND SHOULD DECIDE TOGETHER AND MAKE SURE TO EXPLORE ALL AVENUES WITH REGARDS TO YOUR AGE, FINANCIAL SITUATION, AND EMOTIONS. THE OPINIONS EXPRESSED ON HERE ARE NOT AS EFFICIENT AS YOURS AND YOUR HUSBANDS OWN GOOD JUDGMENT. GOOD LUCK!

That all depends on your age, preference, and financial stability. Generally, I'd say 2-5 years.

There isnt really a time limit but you should consider at what point in your life you are in. If your ready for a family then go for it.
