Life is way too exciting to be planning that kind of stuff.
I would like to get married when I am about 27!
No the idea being that there would be no-one there (except witnesses which we'd ask the registry office if they could provide) that we knew except our daughter as it would be too much hassel otherwise Although the major problem would be that my dad works in the same building as the registry office so we'd have to sneak in and out again
b) when I feel ready
Despite this, I'm rather looking forward to having an unconventional wedding. No white/cream/ivory/beige/egg-shell/off-white dress for me
There's a friend of ours who went off to the US one summer and came back married... they'd just gone and got married in a court with just a judge and in t-shirt and jeans. That was the moment when I realised that that sounded like the ideal wedding. I would love just to run off and do it and only tell people afterwards, but sadly I'm my mother's only child and she'd never forgive me. The boyfriend and I have decided that we will try and get as close as that as possible though, only inviting our parents and siblings. None of our friends will know until afterwards I didn't want to get into inviting friends, as I have a number of particularly close friends and I didn't want to get into the whole risk of upsetting anyone debate...
Hmmm... not that I've thought about this a lot or anything
Marriage, next year, run away, small hotel, no people just us. if the missus wants to that quick is another Question
But id like to be in a serious long term forever type relationship by the time im 40, and id like to have lots of pets with the man then too.
i'm 21 now, so i'd say about the 27-33 range for both.
Ideally I'd like to have my first child when I'm around 25. I want to be around for as much of their lives as I can, and if I had children in my early forties, say, I'd be a lot less likely to see them grow up, get married or have their own children.
But also, I'm just desperate to have children, I suppose... healthy. But not so desperate as to plan for a baby when I'm not in the best situation I could be to have one. So I say 25, but realistically, that probably means 35 and counting... Ach well.

Never having kids.
:no:
Got married at 22. Some - holy shit - nearly 15 years ago.
First child about 18 months later...
Didn't happen though. Finally got in the career path properly at 31, married at 36 and chidlren at 40.
oo congrats!
Only ten years till your silver wedding anniversary.
Got married at the age of 19, wouldn't recommend it!
Will get married again in the next few years when we get around to it!
Had my first baby at 19 as well. That bit has been brilliant.
You!? Never thought I'd see the day you'd let someone tie you down like that. Nah, congrats. You proposed I'm guessing? How'd ya do it? Oh, and I assume it's to the girl you've been going on about, and not some mail order bride or something?
b) whenever it happens if ever!
if i was to get married late 20s very early 30's
and for kids it would probs be the same
And children, never. I don't want to have children, I'm the least maternal person in the world. It's as much as I can do, not to be sick just looking at a child.
Kids ... dunno. After I finish my NQT year - maybe 2-3 years time. Got no definite plan, just see what happens.
Marriage - Not something I have ever seriously considered! The thought of being emotionally and legally tied to another adult (that isn't your child) scares me.
1.) Around 30. I don't want children after 36, though. And I generally don't want children. If I do, I'll adopt. For the better cause :] Stop the population going up.
2.) Marriage? Probably after about 2 years of a relationship sounds sensible to me.
