I am 19 yrs old and just recently married. We dated round 2 1/2 months and decided we wanted to married since we love each other so much. He is 21 yrs old and in the army so I had to move to where he is stationed and leave my family. Everyone was against us getting married since they said we dated a short while, etc. I had to come where he was stationed at alone to be married. How do I get my family to understand. Did I make a mistake? I really don't think so, I love him so much!

Time will give your family the means to accept the fact that you married and will allow for you two to prove that you can make the marriage work. Once that has been proven and your marriage accepted, then I am sure everyone can move on and will learn to be more supportive of you and your husband.

You need to stop worrying about getting your family's approval. If you try to make everyone else happy you will end up being miserable. If you are happy that is all that matters. You need to be happy with your decisions at the end of the day, regardless if other people agree with them or not. I don't think you married too soon. My husband and I were only together for 4 months when we got married and neither of us rejects the speed in which we did things (we celebrate our second anniversary next month and welcome our first child in April). We both knew we wanted to be together forever and didn't see why we should date a long time before we got married.
u married for love so if ur family cannot be happy for u just ignore them. u r happy yes? so they should be happy for u. tell them that they need to be supportive or else to just shut up. however i can see why they are worried, but its ur life so its ur choice. ask them to back off the issue. 
gd luck and congrats!
