Am I obligated to pay Zakat, and how much is it, and how do I calculate it, given that I have not paid Zakat for two years because I believed it was not obligatory for someone who is saving money for marriage?

The money saved for marriage is subject to zakat if a full year has passed since it reached the nisab, which is equivalent to 85 grams of gold or 595 grams of silver.
