Wedding experts have revealed what they believe the best age is to get married.

Georgia Mitchell and Beth Smith, hosts of The Unfiltered Bride podcast, shared their thoughts on the Talk Twenties podcast, discussing all things related to weddings, marriage, and relationships. Georgia told founder and host Gaby Mendes that she believes 30 is the perfect age to tie the knot. She said: "Married at 30, to me that was like the perfect time."

When Gaby asked about the average age for marriage, Beth responded: "28 to 32." Georgia, who wed her husband Brian in late 2022, expressed relief that she didn't marry young. "I'm so thankful that we didn't get married at 22 or 24. So we had a child when I was 21, and I was like we should be getting married now 'cause we've done that," she explained, reports Bristol Live. "And I'm so glad we didn't. If I was recommending it for my daughter, I would say thirty."

Their video has been watched over 51,500 times. Many viewers shared their own experiences and opinions about getting engaged and married in the comments section. One user, Athomewithlauren, commented: "Love your podcasts. But okay to have children at 21, marriage at 30? Surely bringing a child into this world is a bigger responsibility?"

SophL wrote: "Right so best time to get married is 30....right. Okay. Pass me the vodka please." Amy replied: "Got engaged at 22. Getting married next March just after my 24th birthday. Been with my fiance since 2020. I feel like when you know, you know." BellaandByron replied: "Married at 21 and this year we are celebrating our silver wedding anniversary. had a blast and looking forward to planning this celebration."
