Getting married to a man in the army?

Me and my fiance are engaged. He's in the army. Because he's only allowed to visit certain times and for short periods, do you think it will be difficult to plan the wedding? Do they get some kind of special leave? Any information would be greatly appreciated. 10 points best info!

    The planning mostly like will only be you... if you want him involved in it , plan everything for his leave, that's what my best friend is doing. Her fiance is an active duty marine, he has been deployed at least once during there engagement , so think about that deployment WILL come before your wedding. Most military people I know have a very small 1st ceremony, then have a bigger vow renewal when the military member of the relationship is not facing deployment, idk if that is your situation or not.

    ANyway , he should get like a week of wedding leave and a week of honeymoon leave but that's all the Special leave he'll get for getting married , no planning leave what so ever

    Well first you have to know that the Army changes people. So he may not be the man he was before leaving for the Army. i would wait until he comes home. Sit down and have a serious talk with him. Second of all. You both need to have all input in this. His ideals are just as important as yours. So yes by all means do get married, Just make sure its what you want and make sure he want the same of everything. i wish you and him all and ps. Make sure that you and him are grounded with the Lord and following the laws of God!!

  • I think it will be hard to plan, but if you guys truly love each other, you'll be able to plan it. My fiance is in the Navy, but we have our wedding already planned out. He hasn't had his basic training yet, so that makes it a little easier. He is leaving for basics in December, and our wedding is in October. Good luck! I know it will be hard, but you will figure everything out.

  • i understand that you want to make your wedding special but as long as your husband is there that's special in it own way. but you should see when he can come see you and then you can plan around that.
