I do not believe that there is a problem for young people to get married, as long as they are rooted and grounded in the Word of God, complete w/ Jesus Christ, financially stable, independent, emotionally stable, and ready to carry on the responsibility that marriage entails. Marriage is a ministry and requires work on both halfs. It involves communication on another level, that is more complex than a boyfriend/girlfriend type relationship. If they feel they can handle this then more power to them.
Yes I do believe that the formalities are necessary depending upon your the relationship you have with your parents, etc. I want to receive my parents blessing on my upcoming union. We haven't had the best of relationship while I was growing up, but I want them to know that I took the time out to ask for their blessing.
I have my eyes set out on the type of ring that I want, but I'm definitely not limited. My future husband will know what I like and I'm not worried.
