  • We got engaged on my 19th birthday - my ring was 19 diamonds.
    We got married a week before DH was 21, and I was 20 yrs and 6 months.

    In January next year, we celebrate 25 wonderful years.

    I got engaged at 19 in Paris and we have been engaged nearly 2 years.

    Talking about sorting a date for 2 years time - 2009

    Is this rushing? Any advice you can give?

    LOVE being married...was listening to Jeremy Vine earlier and can't believe people would rather wait until their birth certificate was a certain age rather than marry their soul mate.
