And was it earlier or later than when you thought you would have gotten married?
I was a month into 27 when we got married. Growing up, I didn't think/want to get married before 30!

28... It was later than I thought I'd be married mainly because I thought I was going to marry someone else.

I was 25 (almost 26). It was around the time I thought I would've gotten married (I always assumed I'd get married between 25-28).

Growing up I was very vocal about never wanting to get married...BUT, then I met my now DH and something just clicked. I was 33 when we got married.
(I also was firm on not wanting kids but I am due Aug 23 so obviously I changed my mind there too )

21, but I never had a number in mind when I would get married. It was more like, "I wonder if I'll ever find anyone crazy enough to marry me..."

Got married when I was 24, almost 25. It was about when I thought I'd get married.

26! Growing up, I thought 24 would've been the ideal age to get married, but I'm really glad we got married when we did.

29 - later than I thought. I wasted 3 years on the wrong guy but oh well. I always thought I'd be married by 25 but I'm glad it was later

I was 24.
I had unrealistic expectations as a child. Thinking that 25 was old and I should be married with children by the time I was 21 so I could be a "cool" mom.
I'd like to think, according to my past self, that even though I'm old balls now, I'm still a "cool" mom.

I was 23 when I was married. Soooo much younger than I ever expected I would be when I got married!

28! I always thought I wanted to get married young (22-24), but God make all things work together for my good! There is no way I was "ready" back in my early twenties, and no way I could have met DH then anyway!

I was definitely younger than I expected. I met my husband at 20, too, so it was much quicker than I would have ever imagined. I was planning a VERY different life than what I have at that point.

@snowjewelz: My thoughts exactly!
I thought I would be married by 22 (when I had my life figured out-haha) and have kids by 24. I met DH at 27, we married a couple weeks after turning 29 and I will be 30 when our first LO arrives. There were years in my mid 20's when I was sad that I hadn't met someone, but I think they were really good for me as I learned a lot about myself and had a chance to be independent.

I was 26, and it was roughly when I thought I would get married. I never had a plan for it, but 27 always seemed like a "grown up" age to me.

@simplyfelicity: Yes yes yes! I can't imagine how I would've gotten married in my early 20's looking back. At 22 I had just broken up w/ my college bf. I agree that around like 24-25 I start to wonder when/if I'd meet someone, but those years of singlehood was so good for me!
