I was 23, she was 24 (and the then Miss Deaf Colorado!) 
I wanted to wait a little longer, but, she managed to find the engagement ring hidden in my apartment  We had known each other a little over a year....
Engagement was 11 months.
In December of this year, we will have been married for 12 years

Re: Re: Re: Married GreekChatters...

I was 19, he was 25.

He pseudo-proposed within 3 months, but we dated for a little over 3 years before the question was officially popped. I knew my husband was going to be someone really special by our second date. 
How long was the engagement?
We were engaged for 18 months--had to wait until after I graduated from law school--and we'll be celebrating our 3rd anniversary next month!

32
4 months
10 months
(We figured at our age - both over 30 - we had lived long enough to know what we want out of life, so why put it off forever.)

How long did you know each other before "the question" was popped? We dated for almost FIVE years!
How long was the engagement? The engagement was only seven months, because the Army was sending him to Germany. I never got to wear my dress! Oh Well...

How old were you when you met your husband/wife?
I met my husband when I was 33 years old. He was just 30.
How long did you know each other before "the question" was popped?
3 months... Yepper!
How long was the engagement?
Only 3 weeks, we eloped in May 16, 2003; then had a formal ceremony on July 2, 2003--for the parents. My parents were fine with it and paid. His mother still hates me to this day.

1. Hmm...He was involved with a married friend of mine (I didn't have a clue..he was always there...strange really). But I REMEMBER meeting him for the first time in fall of 1987. We were officially introduced at aNew Year's Eve 1987 party (31 Dec 87) at said married friend's house. We had a cute flirtation for a few months (always around said friend..he was really her puppy dog...LONG story) and had our first official date on 6 June 1988. He fixed me a Prego spaghetti dinner and I never went home. We have been together ever since. (Yes married friend has since divorced and remarried and is a VERY close friend of ours..it is so complicated..but she gave me the greatest gift ) So that makes me 28 and him 32.
2. OFFICIALLY accepted proposal came on Christmas Day 1990. We had already had Sageofages son # 1 and were happily co-habitating. He had asked probably a dozen times before, but I wasn't in a hurry and it was working just fine . I like to remind him I didn't get an engagement ring, I got an engagement baby .
3. Official engagement ended with nuptials on 13 April 1991. So...3 months and 20 days.
Pair bonded and soulmates ever since........

I met my wife when we were both sophomores in college; we were friends, and started dating our junior year, when we were 20.
How long did you know each other before "the question" was popped?
We were dating for a year and 3 months before I asked her to marry me
How long was the engagement?
The engagement was a little over a year; I proposed in mid-May of 2004, and we were married in late June 2005, at our church in Boston.
