Living together

Okay so my family are strong believers in Christianity and I was raised on those beliefs. Plus my dad is a minister!  So my boyfriend and I have been dating for three years and marriage is definitely in the picture. But I've just been offered a job where he lives which is 2 hours away from where I currently live. I really love my boyfriend and he wants me to live with him once I move. My parents have already stated that we should do what's right and not live together but I do think that this is what's right. This job pays more and is exactly what I went to school for. We are young, I'm 22 and in graduate school as well. My boyfriend is 24 and is a teacher. So you guys give me your input on my situation.
