I think when you are both able to financially provide for your kids efficiently and when you both are done having fun with each alone! When kids come around, don;t get me wrong they are a beautiful addition to a very loving and stable relationship but your time is so consumed by them that sometimes you both get lost in the "family" life style and end up missing each other! Enjoy each others company, go out on dinner dates, movies, vacations to beautiful places (where it would be hard to take kids!) and learn to love each other more than life it self, then have kids. Getting married shouldn't really have a time set other than when you are both ready, but kids are a very BIG decision. So many people think that it will automatically bond you closer when in fact sometimes it actually is the cause of a divorce (you get lost in the caring for them that you forget about the love you had for each other) not for all but for some! Children are very expensive especially when they learn to speak! "Daddy I WANT that! LOL! Good luck in your decision what ever you decide! and congrats

At least until they are out of college, and have jobs which pay enough to support them and their potential family. But why do the whole kids thing so soon? Enjoy each other for a while, and make sure that the two of you are really solid enough to start a family. Then your family will be on a firm foundation. Good luck!

Wait until you've graduated, gotten post grad degrees, if that's what you want. Make sure you've got some money saved, a good paying job and good credit. If your love is true, then you'll appreciate waiting and offering each other something of more value. Love is a beautiful thing, but it takes a heck of alot more than love to make marriage work. Don't be hasty...it'll be worth the wait. Best wishes.

If you're still in college, and you have jobs, then you need to consider how to budget your income when it comes to paying off your student loans, what you want to save for a house or apartment, and so on. You'll have to assume some personal responsibility for yourself first before you can assume responsibility for a potential spouse and children.

Oh, not long... only till they are about age 35 or so....
If they are typical college age... late teens, early 20's... they are absolutely nuts to get married that young. No one understands what life, love, or marriage is about at that age. They haven't even developed into adults who know themselves yet.

they should get married and start their family whenever they feel the time is right and that they can handle all the responsibilities.
