do not take this as a personal insult aimed at either yourself or your fiance as it is not meant as such. rather, since you asked for an honest opinion i am going to give just that.
you are still a baby barely out of diapers. she is still a baby still out of diapers. neither of you is anywhere near actually being a fully grown adult ready for a lifetime commitment to one person come hell or high water. the people you are today are not the people you will be in ten or even five years from now. i am not saying you do not care about each other but you but you most certainly are not 100% completely and totally in love with each other due to your very very young ages. mind you i do not mean in love like what people today say to each other because it is expected, rather i mean you would gladly swim across shark infested waters to bring her a glass of lemonade in love with each other. i'm talkin about hanging gardens of babylon and taj mahal in love with each other. set the wedding day a few years off and give yourselves a little time to grow first. marriage is costly but divorce is even more so.

lol... it varies for each couple. my brother and his wife have dated since they were 15, and got married when they were 19 or 20, and they are as happy as can be. me, i'm 31, had four different fiancees' and finally got married last fall. do what feels right. my advice is to make sure this person is your best friend. i know it sounds sappy, but you're spending the rest of your life with her. you sure as hell had better enjoy hanging out with her and doing nothing. good luck, and congrats!

and you would know this how? from reading an online post? get a clue. there are tons and tons of people who get married young and it has worked out wonderfully, just as there are lots of older people who get married and it doesn't.
19 isn't "very very young" anymore.

No insult taken.
But I disagree with, well, basically everything you said. Still getting married. And yes, I would gladly swim across shark infested waters to bring her a glass of lemonade. Maybe I'd do it for you too, hmm?
