When you are in your last year of college. Why rush it? You love each other right? Start saving your money so you can not only have a very special wedding but also a honeymoon too. These affairs cost alot and why put it on a charge card? Then you will have money issues and that is a major cause of divorce. Have the money in the bank to pay for everything and start your marriage on a good note. Here is something to look into the both of you. Sit down and make a list of who Will be invited. When you know roughly how many will be there start to call around to get prices on the food, the hall,the limo, the dress.the flowers.the photographer, the church, the table arrangements,the invitations, and the many other things that goes with the wedding. Then find out where you want to go for a honeymoon. Call around for all the pricing and start to save. Good luck and don't rush a good thing.

My fiance and I have been engaged since October 15, 2005. We are paying for most of our wedding and so we wanted to make sure that we could save the money before we jumped into it.
Also we have been dateing for almost 5 years and we have been talking about getting married for at least 3 of those 5 years. We just wanted to make sure that it was the right time for the both of us finanical. Before we get married I wanted to be finishing with my next 2 degrees (total after graduation I will have 3) just so I had that all behind me.
I would say that you should wait and do it when you are both finaical ready. If you both love each other, take your time.

i know that your excited, but you are too young.
i've been engaged since Aug 25th 06, I am 27 and have been with my fiance for 7 years, we are getting married next September and let me tell you the wait is well worth it. We completed college and we both have very good jobs.
Keep dating and don't rush into anything, you both love each other and there is no reason why you would have to rush into marriage.

You can start planning your wedding anytime, but I don't think you should actually get married until you've at least graduated from college. Unless you aren't going to go to college, in which case I would say wait until you're 21 so that you can legally participate in the champagne toast at your wedding ;)
If you are in love, and know you'll be together, there really should be no rush to the altar. Enjoy your youth, travel the world!

A junior in high school? Honey, you are far to young to be married. Get out of high school first, then maybe you can start planning. If you love each other dont rush it, just wait.

If you think this is right then just wait til you have finished school.Its ok to plan and decide on the thing that you want, then as soon as you have finished school do it!!
Talk to your fiancee and find out when he plans to do it.

You should both be worried about your futures before worrying about each other. Get a degree...get a job...get settled in life before thinking about a wedding. You have better things to worry about now...save that stress for later.

Untill when you both decide a date and start planning a year before.

I know this is not the answer you'll want but you should wait till at least 30. You don't know who you are or what you want out of life till your older. You will change so much between know and then.

Wait until you are out of college and have a steady job.
5ish years.
