It’s all personal choice. Do what feels best for you and your partner and your relationship. Research shows people who didn’t live together until after marriage had a slightly lower divorce rate than those who moved in prior, but correlation doesn’t equal causation and all that. So again. Just do what the two of you decide is best. Don’t make anyone pressure you into a decision either way
