Hi ya.
When you say how long should you wait i take it you mean to actually marry.?
Well that's something only you know for yourself in your heart. Having the money is a good start, i agree, however you can have all the money in the world but if your not ready, then your not ready. However saying that weddings don't have to be thousands and take months to plan. again it depends on what you want from a wedding and marriage.
Are you getting married for the show of it all?
Are you getting married to be with the one you love?
You can get married for the price of a holiday abroad, nowadays. Or you can have a registry office, ask the family to all chip In with the other arrangements, food, drink, flowers etc, then have a big party in a hall. I
There again if the big fairy tale is what you want then have that.
All I'm saying is this
1. Only you can know in your heart when the time is right
2. A wedding can cost what ever you want it to.
Good luck

The waiting time is up to you all! There is no time set of when you can or should get married. Keep in mind that if you are planning a wedding, you need time to organize everything! I would say from 6,9, or 12 months. It's really up to you all and also the availability of venues, church, and all the services you will need! You could get married today but would you have everything you want in your dream wedding? Take that into consideration and give yourself ample time, plus think of finances also! Good Luck!

It really depends what kind of wedding you want. If you desperatly want to do it now and not wait at all then 2 weeks is the notice you have to give by law. The registry office who do the civil ceremony be it in the town hall or a hotel require the notice to be pubicly on display for 2 weeks.
But if this is the quickie you want then looks like town hall it will be cos you wont be able to pull much more together in that time.
Loads of luck whatever you decide!

6 months to a year because that's about how long it will take you to get everything together. Finding a preacher, finding a church/other place to hold the ceremony, getting wedding license, inventations, cake, reception. and much much more. Trust me you want to make the wedding as far away as possible. The best thing would be not to set a date till you are ready to get inventations made cause by then everything else is pretty well planned out and you will have a better idea about how much longer you and your fiancee will need to get all the final things together.

It depends on what type of wedding you want? If you don't want one you can marry in 1-3 days depending on where you live and the marriage license restrictions or you can take a year or two to plan something big.

Love is an impulsive thing. There are no rules. Use the engagement period to plan your marriage, and when you both feel ready for it, that's when you'll get married.

There is no set time you have to wait after getting engaged.

How ever long it takes one you apply for a marrige liscence to the time you recieve it. And if you have to have any medical tests done before hand you will need the results back first...but really thats all you need to wait for.

Took us 6 months from me asking to the wedding day. I guess it really depends on the pair of you. If your really sure that you want to get married then get on with it!
