Last week, we shared the stories of how our parents met. From Ami's parents—who met at summer camp—to Kate's mom and dad—who bonded over Shakespeare in the Park—you guys immediately connected and shared your own parents adorable stories. We noticed a couple of startling similarities in so many of the tales shared—for one, that people used to get married at a much younger age. That's not entirely surprising—but it is rather shocking that so many stories involved couples getting engaged after only six weeks, and married after only six months. It seems the courting and engagement period was typically much, much shorter than it is now. And what's more, from your stories anyway, most of those couples seem to still be happily married today. Just something to consider.
More than 70 of you told your parents story, and we've selected our 10 favorites for you to read. And if you haven't told your tale already, feel free to share it in the comments!
