Bilbo wanted to stay with the Elves because they have great healing powers, and as he got older his back got worse and worse, and only the beds in Rivendell were soft enough.
Elrond didn't let Arwen marry Aragorn right away because at the time he proposed, Aragorn (who Arwen affectionately called Gornie) had a rather large spot directly in the middle of his forehead. Since the wedding pictures were to last a very *long* time, and Elrond didn't want others to remember his son in law as 'that guy with the spot on his forehead at his wedding', he made up this fib about Aragorn not being good enough. So Aragorn went off on the quest, and Eowyn started going out with Faramir after she found out about Gornie's spot. In Minas Tirith, Ioreth lent him some Neutrogena, so the spot cleared up and Elrond let Arwen marry him. The end.
