There's no "right age" to get married. The right moment is when both are ready to do it, mature enough, and have the money to live by themselves.

I think it's different for everyone, although I do think a person needs some time after they get out of high school to be an adult and to figure some things out on their own. I think when you find the right person for you, and assuming that you're financially able to support yourself and a spouse, and emotionally ready for the challenges of marriage, then you're ready.
I was 21 when I got married, and hadn't planned on getting married for quite some time, however, my husband had different ideas, he was ready to settle down. He was willing to allow me to live me life, but told me point blank if I wasn't willing to settle down with him then, he'd keep looking. I then realized I wasn't willing to take a chance on losing him, and that he was the one I had been looking for. I wouldn't have wanted to do it a minute sooner than I did though, but we've been married for over 18 years.

i dont think it has anything to do with age, but instead the maturity level of the couple.
You could be 30 or 40 years old, and be sooo imature, compared to a couple who is 20 and have a great marturity level. That isnt to say that those who are not ready dont do it anyways...

Whenever you are both ready...My mom and dad have been happily married for 30 years and they got married at 17! I would say when you are past the "lusting" period and you both know who eachother REALLY are! Good Luck : )
p.s. I am engaged and 22...I think the average for a US female is 26

i think when you are emotionally and financially ready. also, the most omportant thing is how well u know your partner. 2 yrs, (my opinion) is the least. by the 4th year, you should have the wedding date set. i wanna be married by 24. i am 20 and have been w/ my b/f for 4 yrs. i cant wait for what the future holds for us, even though im young, i think i would be emotionally ready now, but bot financially till i am outta school.

I'd say not any younger than 21. You need some time after high school to be an adult and have adult fun before you settle in with just one partner for the rest of your life.

Any age is right as long as you are ready to take up the challanges in your life after marriage!!.. Marriage is no game...! So think before you act ! .Dont worry about the age factor.

ok, i'd wait untill your about 25...but i would'nt marry a guy till he hits 30, because most guys are very immature before that age.

I'd say late 20's early 30's because you know who you are, and what you want.

when you both have decent jobs that will allow you to support yourselves without asking your parents for help.
