I'd advise her to live with him for a very long time before doing that LOL.

That's good advice! You know, before I wrote Leila's story (and I'm pretty sure Lucy and Dallas were engaged before I got to most of Leila's story), I would have told her to go for it. But man, now, let's just say, I'm writing her mother's point of view very easily, lol! I think Leila would tell her to run for the hills!

I'm not sure. I think Lucy and Leila are very different. I actually feel that Lucy and Dallas would do a much better job of growing together than Matt and Leila did.

They are different people, and if they did, they'd be getting married for different (and maybe better) reasons.

Laura, I read an interview with U2 once where one of them mentioned that people tell them all the time that they used "One" at their weddings and that it always confused him! I have always loved that song though.
As for Lucy, I can't think of a circumstance where I'd tell an 18 year-old to get married, even one as adorably in love as she is. Live together first, or even just have a very long engagement would probably be what I'd advise her, if I was April. I don't know that she'd listen but I guess I'd feel like I had to try!
I do agree with Nicole about the differences between Leila and Lucy though. Lucy and Dallas just seem like a good fit, whereas Matt and Leila probably never were. But I don't know...we're all looking at that with the benefit of hindsight now, so it's hard to say.

OMG "One" as a wedding song, lol! Sure, it's a beautiful and inspiring song, but it's also about people to do terrible hurtful, things to each other, lol! SO not a wedding song! We'll see what we can talk Lucy into (or out of?) - she's a very sure and headstrong girl! She's a lot like Leila in some ways, but completely different in other ways.
