Ditto with Mrs. Poochie and me. I was gonna get married at 26, but then I lost my job and had to wait another year - and a paid gig - to pop the question.
We'll be married 12 years in December.

okay, the truth comes out, it was actually two years to the date we met, in the middle of a blizzard at the NYC clerks office.

I was at my oldest niece's wedding, and at age 25, she was the first of her immediate peer group to be married. From the looks and actions of her friends, they don't plan to be married anytime soon.
My wife and I married at 22. Too young for sure - but we're still married 21 years later. When you marry that young, you're really just starting round 1 of many marriages as both grow and change.
As my oldest goes thru his teenage years, I really doubt he'll be hitched before 30 unless he truly finds someone special before.

We dated for 7 years before we got married. In that time, I went to school. Then she went back to school. We got married after she graduated. I was 30, she was 27.
We've been married for 15 years.
We've had great times and some tough times.
