Is living together before marriage illegal?

It is a matter of opinion and no ones business, but the couple involved. For convenience sakes many young people (even some older individuals) will live together without getting married or live together until they do get married. It is only wrong is eyes of the couple. The downside of living together before marriage is the couple has been living like a married couple so it takes the excitement and joy out of any upcoming wedding because what is left? The couple has lived together for 1 or more years; done the same things a married couple does and by getting married they have lost the part of the excitement of not living together and waiting for the day of their wedding and then having their wedding night whether they have had a sexual relationship before or not. Then they get to live together and experience the joys and some downsides and make a future for themselves.
