what would you say to them

If you are 20 years old do what you want to by moving. You are of a legal age to so do it as they cannot stop you. Too early for this kind of question my dear.

review all options first-
If you have your parents approval for your intended marriage then why move out now? Why not wait until after marriage, do it the right way?
If you don't have your parents approval, then the way you tell them will not matter.
When I moved out, I dropped little hints over a period of a few weeks to feel out the situation, like looking for an apartment and the rate of rental is high, etc.
When I found the place (which you obviously already have), I told them that I was grateful for all they did for me, I will still need them in the future (you always need them), but it is time I try to make it on my own. The virtues instilled during my upbringing and the independence they taught me needs to be put to the test.
I moved out at 18. I am 28 now and my mother and I are a lot closer now than when I lived in the same house and as compared to her relationship with my other sisters.

I'm confused. Are you married now? Or soon-to-be married? Chances are, your parents expect you to move out and start your own life with your husband .. it's completely natural and normal. Just be honest with them.

So you are moving in with your fiance's parents? Why not just stay where you are until you guys can get a place of your own. I mean, to me, that would come first, especially before you get married.

Go to your parents as the adult you are and let them know that you are making a move that you think is best for you

I would say - for some reason, I cannot wait until I am married to form a household with my future husband, so I"m going to go be his live in now.
I'm sure your parents will be proud and thrilled.

Just be honest with them, hide nothing. While they may not approve of the idea, it is your decision. In time, they'll adjust to your choice. Good luck!

You're married? Why can't you just tell them you're moving out? You're over 18, married and can do what you want.

Is their any way you can revise your question so that we can understand it? Not trying to be insulting, just want to help.
