Question

What age do you have to be to get married?

Answer 1

To be able to get married without your parents consent and permission you have to be 18 years old to get married.

However if you get your parents consent and written permission you can sometimes get married as early as age 15 to 16 years old.

The actual age at which you can get married with parents consent depends on your states laws.

If your state does not allow you to get married then either wait or move to a new state that will allow it if possible.

However be aware that marriage is a big and huge commitment that should not be taken lightly.

Make sure you know the person you're wanting to marry and make sure it's what you want because marriage is a huge thing.

I've married before when I was younger and it turned out he was not the man for me like I thought.

But after I waited a few more years and got to know another guy I found that he really was the man for me and now we've been married for 15 years and have 3 wonderful kids who I also love.

Answer 2

Actually it depends on a country, as legal age can differ.

However I really would not like my son to bet married even at 18, let alone 15 or 16.

That would really be a nightmare. I

guess such early weddings are sheer lack of education from parents. So I want my son to go there and start dating different girls first. And he must learn how to use barrier contraceptives to avoid not only getting married at 15, but getting AIDS at this age too.
