I've been noticing that too. I give these girls credit because there is no way I could ever have been engaged that long (no offense to anyone who was, that's just not me) my engagement was 8 months and that was long enough

I totally agree. My engagement was 9 months and I planned from OOT.

Ditto. But then again it makes the planning process a little easier. Gives you some more time and flexibility in deciding your vendors, the reception, etc. I know I'm so impatient, so I would go crazy waiting 2 to 3 years.

My engagement was 6 months and that was plenty of time -- would have done it sooner if I could have. I guess $$ is an issue and people have to save up....although our families did not contribute one dime.

I see the first poster (USUK) on here is expecting quadruplets?? Is that right???

I was engaged for three years. It helped tremendously because we paid for our own wedding and hubby's business was just taking off when we got engaged. It made the last year of our engagment so much better because we could actually RELAX and focus on us w/o the last minute stresses. Plus if you book early, you get a discount, etc.

i don't know...with all that time, i would second guess every single one of my decisions! i planned in 8 months and it was still a bit too long. i guess it is good for financial reasons, but i needed a swift kick in the behind and a short period of time will do that. as for what usuk said...i feel the same way about by that time, i could be a mom!

Re: OMG!!! Some girls are getting married in 2006 or 07!!

well, my date is 2006, and that is because my FH is a United States Marine currently serving in Iraq. Also, some of the other girls with dates far away are younger and paying themselves.

My FH and I are paying ourselves and with a military and graduate student *future educator* salary, it is hard.

We've booked our hall and made some plans but we are kind of just enjoying being engaged at the moment or at least we were until he got shipped over seas now I have bigger things to worry about then my wedding. All plans have come to a halt until his safe return.

LOL I kinda figured but I thought it was funny to see so many baby faces!!

The wedding -- was great! Julie did a fantastic job -- excellent food as to be expected. It was a beautiful day so we got some great pics. of the vineyard and the building (the ones our photographer didn't think of getting). I love that place, I really do.....

We were the opposite we had a short engagement just long enough to have a Catholic Mass followed by a great reception, since my husband is Active Duty. Then we had a problem with the date and rescheduled. But in total our engagement was 7 months and even though we were young 22 engaged, 23 married the short notice gave us some amazing deals since if the dates were available the vendors wanted to book!

Re: OMG!!! Some girls are getting married in 2006 or 07!!

I would have gone nuts if i had that much time to plan. As it was i had six months and i felt like it took for ever for the day to finally come around.. I would loose my mind if i had that much time.
