Re: How long.....
Since I'm on my second I think that you and I have a bit in common. We knew each other for about a year and didn't really like each other until she showed up at a surprise 30th b-day party for me, we started dating right after that. We were together for about 4 years before I popped the question, I was pretty gun shy after the first one having gone south. We were engaged for about 9 monts before the wedding, we had it in her folks back yard. All told we've been together just over 20 years now and married 14 and a half. Not too bad for the second go 'round. Good luck no matter what your decision.

court house wedding or the "REAL DEAL?"
Real Deal, it was her first marriage and my second becoming a widower.
We have been happily married for almost 11 years (will be in May) and had my 4th child, her first, in Feb 2007. I couldn't be happier...

Re: How long.....
5 years dating + 1 1/2 engaged.
Court House wedding ALL the way, unless blowing the money for the full-deal will have no effect whatsoever in your finances. In this day and age, taking a $25k loan to throw a freakking party is beyond irresponsible in my opinion.
We got married at City Hall, took pictures around philly (a friend who is a photographer), followed by a very small dinner party for our very closest friends and family.
It was perfect.==============

Re: How long.....
I first met my wife in a drunken stupor on the elevator in our dorm. About two months later I met her at a frat party. We hung out for a few weeks (she had a boyfriend) and when they were done we started dated.
We dated for 11 months before I popped the question (I knew much sooner, but wanted to be sure).
We were engaged for 4 years before we got married.
We've been together for 6 years now and have a 10 month old.
All told it's been more than 11 years that we have been together.
We got married at a winery. If you knew me you would understand that this is pretty much the only place that would make sense.
