For anyone you know that’s in this age category.
When it’s right, it’s right.
For every conversation at a wedding when an in-law comes up to you and says ‘so, when will we be at your wedding?’ you’ve our permission to stick their head in the cake.
Ok, that might cause a bit of a family scene but hey, it’s a wedding. These things are to be expected.
You might hate the idea of marriage, you might love it. Each to their own.
However, a recent survey by Bannon Jewellers piqued our interest because 1,000 members of the Irish public were asked a simple question – ‘What age do you think people should get married at?’
Of course, the right answer is whenever they want but nearly 34% of respondents felt that the best age to get married was between 30 and 33.
This was followed closely by 25 to 29, which received 24.5% of the vote.
15% of those surveyed felt that people shouldn’t get married at all. Of this subsection, men responded ‘never’ more than women (19% vs 11%).
Those participants who are aged between 18-24 felt that that the age people should get married at is 18-24, more so than any other age group.
Here’s a graph which indicates how the voting was categorised and a full breakdown of the data can be found here.
