Until you've actually put a deposit on a venue, you really can't guarantee your wedding date.  Even if you guys move forward with wedding plans and definitely decide to get married next fall, you can't be sure of your date.

But it probably won't be. . .  and if you take any of our advice to heart it definitely won't be because it is too soon.

Very true. I didn't think about that. I don't want to deal with creating a new account. Oh well.

I might be a millionaire some day... but I'm not going to max out my credit cards just yet!  ;)

Oh, and I never imagined my BFF not being in my life either. We were 'sisters'. Now, we don't even talk... I'm not saying it's going to happen to you but, keep it in mind before you notify your entire wedding party before you're actually engaged.

Oh definitely. No more drunk bridesmaid talks with anyone. I think I've got some serious thinking to do about the whole thing.

You seem very sweet. I have a feeling you & your boyfriend had a few talks about marriage & you got REALLY excited. There is nothing necessarily wrong with that. But, you could be rushing things. Everyone (usually) has tons & tons of talks about marriage before they get engaged. Sometimes these people end up getting married, some don't. I'm not trying to be Debbie downer, but you may be rushing everything. I understand it was out of excitement/ good intentions, but you need to relax before your excitement turns into something else.

OMG...this post reeks of insanity.

I'm 22...so, younger than you, and it'd be a cold day in hell before my parents "let" me do anything.

You've only been together for 6 months!  FFS, SLOW THE HELL DOWN!  You need to get to know your BF longer before you can rationally make the decision of whether or not you want to get married.  The ONLY way to be sure that you're right for each other is to have your relationship weather all storms.  You need to have at least one SERIOUS fight.  You need to spend a LOT of time together and see how he reacts to different family, social, life issues that arise.  THEN and ONLY then, can you maturely evaluate if he's right for you.

At 6 months, I was still in the honeymoon, never got off my back stage of my relationship.  SLOW DOWN!

Also, don't settle.  If you call your BF immature, is that really what you want?  Do you love him or the idea of him?  Be honest with yourself here.

No man is worth settling over.  That is why God invented the vibrator.

wedding91011bride

Thanks ladies. I think you guys are right. I'm going to back off from the high of marriage talk.

Okay. Off to lurking I go. Maybe I'll be back when I have more concrete plans. Thanks for the advice. You guys really helped me put some things into perspective. My parents aren't overly involved, so it's nice to have some unbiased advice. I really appreciate it.

You don't necessarily  have to wait before concrete plans are made.  Any time you feel like your'e getting close to that gottagetmarriednow ledge, then come back and we'll talk you down.  Ladies here have great advice about lots of things.

But, then again, even if she is a troll, at least she didn't go off the deep end on us. Always a plus.

It's all become SO clear why some marriages don't work out. Sweetheart, seriously, I mean this with the absolute best of intentions- DO NOT get married. If we all can tell these things about you without ever meeting you in person, there HAS to be something wrong.
