Marriage is legally valid in every respect. It is only that marriage when either of spouses are below the specified age is punishable, such marriages are neither void nor voidable. Moreover, it happened more than 11 years back and from the facts stated, you are well settled with kids.

For a valid marriage the groom should have a minimum age of 21 years.nevertheless long standing relationship as partners give rise to a presumption of marriage for the purpose of maintenance ,inheritance ,matrimonial offences except bigamy

Your marriage is legally valid.It is true both of you entered into the marriage very early age. Your marriage was solemnized and two children born in the wedlock. However your marriage is legally enforceable
