No. I got married when I was 22 and I am about to celebrate my seventh wedding anniversary.Keep in mind though, that from a maturity standpoint, 23 is different for everyone and for some people 23 is too young because they are not able to handle the hard work and sacrifice to make a marriage work, and it does take a lot. I think if the 23 year old is mature enough to be realistic about what being married is like then I don't think it is too young at all. But if the person romanticizes it or thinks that it is all about playing house or whatever then they should probably wait because they won't be prepared for the hardships that come with the territory, and believe me even the happiest marriages have their rough spots. A marriage needs a lot more than love to work and being in love does not guarantee a stable marriage. You need to look at the big picture and consider all aspects before you decide to take the plunge. In fact age in itself really has nothing to do with a successful marriage. It is the maturity level that really matters

23 is too young to be married, you'll end up like the 16 year old feeling like you've missed something.
Do absolutely everything you ever thought you wanted before you commit to marriage and a family. After the commitment you have to include your partner in every decision you make, so have all your fun now.
I don't recommend marriage to anyone under 29/30. At this age, you generally have your professional life organized, you've experienced various relationships and have a clear understanding of what you want and don't want for yourself in the future.
You don't have that at 23...If you are both in love and believe it is forever, get engaged to be married in 7 years. If its good now it'll be better then.

god no, if you think about it if you are going to get married and start a family at 23 it may take you a few years to fall pregnant so you could be 25 26 when you have your first baby if you plan on having 2 or 3 kids you could be nearly 30 when you have the 3rd i know if it was me i wouldnt be wanting to have kids after 30 too much complication, id say 23 is the perfect age cause thats how old i was and i am now 27 with 4 beautiful kids

Of course not! I got engaged at 18 and married when I turned 19. I'm still doing the college thing and sharing my life with a special someone.

its not THAT young, i was 19. though i think if u wait that gives you more years to be single and have fun. if this is the guy for you and you dont want to lose him then id go ahead and get marreid.
