Yes. :)
Darcy and I were engaged within 6 days of meeting and married a year later. Still happy together 14 1/2 years later. My parents were married after two months - it's their 41 years' wedding anniversary on Monday. My uncle (my mother's brother) and his wife were married 3 months after meeting, nearly 40 years ago. Their daughters both met their husbands-to-be and never looked at anyone else since. (Esp. romantic for the elder one... their eyes (literally) met across a crowded room. They were 16. Still very much in love.)
It's just a thing in our family...
ETA: I am not advocating getting married age 20 as a particularly SENSIBLE thing. I just know what was right for me. And I have never - not EVER - felt more right about anything than I did on my wedding day. (There is also the fact that marriage is hard work. It's worthwhile, but not easy. Which I guess is why I like complicated couples.)
