Been with my wife for 11 years (married for 7 of them) and I like being married. We still have a very healthy sex life and honestly enjoy spending time with each other.
From what I've seen of good and bad marriages, being ready is the biggest key to success. Don't expect major changes in yourself or your partner. Make sure you have compatible goals and such. Things that I've seen that have wrecked marriages are things like a couple with a husband that enjoyed being a gypsy, moving a lot with a wife that expected to buy a home and start a family right after they got married. Or my favorite that sadly I've seen more than once, a partner looking forward to being married so they wouldn't have to have sex as often.
