Take this with a pinch of salt.

Obviously, the right time to get married varies and every couple decides what works for them. New research has come up with the 'best' and 'worst' times to tie the knot but again, it's just research and no one but you can decide when you're ready. That said, this study, spotted on Psychology Today, is particularly interesting, provided you don't take it too seriously. The standard way of looking at things is that those who marry later in life are more likely to stay together but this isn't reflective of current statistics. Nicholas Wolfinger, a sociological researcher based in America, looked at data from 2006 to 2010 from the National Survey of Family Growth. He found that getting married after your late thirties showed that more couples are likely to split as opposed to those tying the knot in their late 20s. With that in mind, the 'best' age to get married is believed to be between 28 and 32. After coming to this result, Nicholas then concentrated on statistics from 2011 to 2014 and came to the same conclusion. While getting married later in life is indicative of a higher risk of divorce, so too is getting married at a young age, according to this research anyway. He found that couples who married as teenagers have a 38 percent risk of divorce after five years of marriage while those who wed in their early twenties have a 27 percent chance. To back up his earlier point, he found that there was a much lower rate of divorce for couples who married between 25 and 34. Again, with this date, he concluded that couples who married after the age of 35 or over had "a 17% risk of divorce during their first five years of marriage". I wouldn't go taking this research to heart too much but it's interesting all the same.
