Just finished reading the wedding cost survey and the stats on how long marriages are lasting and wondered how long people here have been married. My wife and I will be at 24 years in May, how about the rest of you?

21 years in March.

My mom and dad were married for 40 years before my dad died... my MIL & FIL were married for just shy of 60 years before my MIL died. All grandparents for me and for hubby were all married until "death do us part"... so we see longevity in a marriage as normal.

6 and a half years, and we both come from broken homes. :lol: But our parents are all happily remarried to spouses that are better suited for them, so there is a lesson in that.

It'll be 6 years for us and we too both come from divorced parents. We dated for a year, got engaged and were married 9 months later in Las Vegas. And if I may add -- the 9 months we were engaged included NO wedding planning. I was sitting at my desk one afternoon and received a text from now hubby that said "Let's go to Las Vegas and get married." Three weeks later we were leaving BWI for LV. :cheers:

Was married 9 years in the same house and 12 years on paper. No hurry to divorce. :shrug:

How modern - texting a marriage proposal. :lol:

I said in the other thread - 9 years first time around, 13 years the second. So I'm getting better at this marriage thing. Next time around I'm shooting for 15 years. :yay:

6 months. We've been together for years and years and hadn't planned on ever getting married. We didn't think getting married would be any different from living together.............but it is! :bann:

I hope being married stays like this forever!
