The 'right' age for getting married is the 'right' age for you. No one can tell you when or when not to except yourself.

There's definitely a 'wrong' age. I wish more people would encourage their children to wait on that one a bit. We're definitely not the same people at 21 than we were 18 (ironically, when most marriages take place... our twenties, that is.) 25 makes the earlier years seem like child's play. 30? Usually by then, our lives and past mistakes have come to fruition like a giant zit, and sometimes there's already a spouse and kids involved by then.
Life is about growing, learning, changing, adapting to change, and moving forward; about learning that happiness is a choice that comes from within us, and not some other person, or spouse. Until you've 'grown into' yourself, it's probably difficult to find a permanent mate (remember, marriage is a legal, binding contract that can be costly to get out of later) who isn't going to possibly 'grow' in a different direction. I don't think we have the life experience when we're younger to even be able to recognize compatibilities in others in all key areas for marital success: emotionally, morally, physically, sexually, financially, etc.. Most of us confuse infatuation with love; so desperately needing to BE loved, that we'll settle for the first joe to come along and profess to 'love us'.
And engagements? To me? Can set the stage for failure. Once 'engaged', people feel obligated to, er, well, 'go through with it'. Women especially have a tendency to plan their 'dream wedding' the minute he pops the question. In the meantime, during the course of the engagement, red flags or skeletons can come up, but out of obligation; out of 'commitment', people go through with marriages that I think they secretly know probably won't work. When you're older? You're wiser, you're more direct, you're more familiar with your own likes and needs.
They should teach a class on this in high school, in my opinion. Kids born into bad marriages suffer the most, and it could be prevented if we taught our youth some life skills, some relationship skills.

Definitely before 6. If you try to arrange it after they've entered public school, they will already be brainwashed to believe in independence and marrying for "love".

I think if I had it to do again I would wait until I was 99 years old.

You're never the right age, but especially under thirty. Live and love a little or a lot, before you make the decision to commit.

I don't think there's a right age group for marriage. Having kids, yes, but if it's solely about having a life partner, then there's no limit. In my parents' day (40 years ago), getting married between 18 and 25 was commonplace. These days, I'd say it's shifted by a decade: between 28 and 35. I got married at 28. The only thing that matters, when getting married, is that both partners are of legal adult age.

i think when you get married it should be with someone you love but, i think both people should be stable with their lives. most of the marriages that ive been around have all ended badly because when they got married it was because they had a kid or thought they were in love and they had no money or career going for them so when they got older they blaimed and resented eachother.

Take your time, you really can be too young, I know!
Give yourself to the opportunity to develop into your own adulthood.

yea, theres a formula for that: take the penis size and multiply by 3, if it's good for the woman it's good enough for me.
