the best age for marriage depends on the person, I don't think anyone should get married until they are at a place in life that they can support themselves. in other words after your done with school and have a career, so many people get married early and never get to achieve what they really wanted to in life, you always think you will, but then reality steps in, it is so much harder to get an education once your married and or have kids. And most marriages end in divorce because of financial problems, and if both people in the relationship already have careers and are self supportive then money won't be a problem in the relationship as long as you both keep working. If you enter into a marriage before your single life is together, then your just compounding the problems and very likely your marriage won't work out.

It doesn't exist.
The most appropriate time for marriage would be when the individual reaches emotional and social maturity. Attain Confidence with an ability to reason, navigate difficulties and have the resolution to overcome diversity. Can accept responsibility is more important than 'self'.
When two people meet with this level of development and an ability to communicate with only an expectation of openness and honesty they're on the right track.
Or, hormones can take over and marry cuz it looks like fun, so age doesn't matter cuz it probably won't last too many birthdays and next time they'll be older.
Oh yeah.... Kids? hmmmmm?

I don't think there really is a best age to get married. In my opinion, what really matters is the maturity of the two people deciding to do so! Age is nothing but a number, as they say. Getting married is a big committment and as long as both parties are confident in their decision to take it all the way, I say go for it.....whether you may be 20 or 40. Also, to me, another key factor is being financially stable. When I say this, I mean to still be independent and making your own money, whether you are married or not. This way, neither party is really depending on one another, but just know that each of them have their stuff straight and you can agree on things 50/50.

There is no best age. I know some people that are more mature and ready for marriage at 18 than some people that are in their 30's. It's all about maturity.

There is no "best age" but you probably want to wait until you are at least 18. I work with a lot of older people and just a few months ago an 88 year old women called in letting us know to change her info on her name cause she was getting married! I say good for her!

hi,i;v read some of the other answers,but'...i dont think you can put a best age for marriage on someone else! because people find there love of life at different times of their life than other people.if you where lucky to find that special person early in your life that means more to you than all the money in the world ; you should get married as soon as possible. it would be a wonderful thing 'to have your parents and grand parents there. i wish you the very best .

The best age for marriage is when you are ready to face a life with a spouse(and possibly children) with all their good and bad ways.

Its a fact that if married between the ages of 18-25 the divorce rate is approx 80%. So Id say anything after 25 where your chances are still 50/50!

I don't think there is a right age. But I belive marriage is a BIG responceablity so I wouldn't JUMP into it. unless your Both ready and know how much work it takes. I was 20 when I got married. and I've been married for 6yrs. My hubby was 21 and I was his sec wife. he had been married and Devorced by the time he was 20.

Not really about age it's about maturity and responsibilty.
I got married at 18 and have been married for 5 years. Best 5 years of my life so far. Still love my husband more than the day I met him.
It is all about finding the right person. Could be 20....30....70 what ever life throws at you.
