Wedding experts and hosts of The Unfiltered Bride podcast Georgia Mitchell and Beth Smith have named the best age to get married. The pair appeared on the Talk Twenties podcast to chat about all things wedding planning, marriage and relationships.
Georgia told founder and host of Talk Twenties, Gaby Mendes, the perfect age to get married is 30. Georgia said: “Married at 30, to me that was like the perfect time.”
Gaby asked: “What’s the average, would you say?” Beth replied: “28 to 32.” Georgia, who married her husband Brian at the end of 2022, said she was glad she didn’t get married at a young age.
“I’m so thankful that we didn’t get married at 22 or 24. So we had a child when I was 21, and I was like we should be getting married now ‘cause we’ve done that," she said.
“And I’m so glad we didn’t. If I was recommending it for my daughter, I would say thirty.” The video has been viewed over 51,500 times.
Many people shared their thoughts and own experiences with getting engaged and married in the comment section. Athomewithlauren said: “Love your podcasts. But okay to have children at 21, marriage at 30? Surely bringing a child into this world is a bigger responsibility?”
