That would also mean Robin was only like 18 when he got married, although there is not a lot of evidence on where Heart of Gold falls on the timeline. It implies something to that effect, yes. Remember, this makes sense though, because Robin appears to be the same age as Regina (if not older). Tink took young adult Regina to the tavern, where an adult Robin (at least old enough to be alone or with friends in a tavern and with a tattoo) was drinking. So (even though the actors ages don't reflect this), I believe characters like Regina, Robin, and Zelena are intended to be about 10 years older than characters like Snow, Charming, and Emma. Obviously, only Emma aged for 28 years while everyone else was frozen, which is why she is about the same age as Snow and Charming, her parents.
