    Just wondering how long you and your FI were together before getting engaged, and how long your engagement is (or was)?

    We dated for 10 months, and our engagement is 10 months.

    Let's see...three months before we got engaged, and we'll have been together just under two years when we get married so that would make it a 20 month engagment.

    We're renewing our vows and having the ceremony we wanted then but went ahead with the marriage for other reasons that were needed.

    We were together 8 months before we were engaged. Married after 3 years and a month and we'll have been together for 5 years in August.

    We were together for about 3 months before he asked me to marry him. Yep but for some reason I never took him seriously  . . .  well flash forward he's asked me pretty much everday for the past 6 years by the time we get married we'll have been together just under 7 years! (I guess I should have taken him seriously a little earlier)
