I would like nothing more than to get married early, but between two cross country moves in the last 4 years and potentially more in the future, unless my partner wasn't working or tied down, that seems very unlikely to happen. My parents also got married early, but could transition from single to dual income at the time, something harder to do nowadays.

Waiting to marry until you are stable seems like the smart thing to do given that traditional "man works, woman takes care of the house" isn't the way it works anymore.
