Members of the royalty and high nobility often married young for reasons of diplomacy or dynastic considerations. Marriages happened at the age of six or eight sometimes.

Among peasants, most people wanted to know their potential partners could provide well for a household before a marriage took place. Women saved up a hope chest, often working at jobs such as spinning to save money. Young men proved their skills at labor. The average age seems to have been about twenty-five. After the Black Death, people tended to marry a bit younger.

What is common law marriage in Utah and how does it differ from traditional marriage?

Common law marriage in Utah is a legal recognition of a relationship where a couple lives together and presents themselves as married without a formal ceremony. In Utah, common law marriage requires both parties to be of legal age, have the mental capacity to consent, and openly declare themselves as married. This differs from traditional marriage in that common law marriage does not require a marriage license or ceremony, but still grants similar legal rights and responsibilities as a formal marriage.
