Military & Marriage F/18
Please don't tell me that I'm too young to get married. My fiance and I have been together for almost 4 years. We got engaged when I was 17 and he was 19. He's leaving this August for the Navy and he's going to be training as a SEAL. My question is when would be the best time to get married? It's either before his basic in August or after his first deployment which is 3 years from now. I know there's not very much leave time during each section of training and I don't want to get court house married. I would just like some input from others. Thanks :)

Is he signed up in the Navy already? Get him to ask someone about housing for his wife/family. Sometimes the military will pay for the spouse's housing if you're married before he signs up.
But if that ship has sailed, wait until at least after his basic training. ]
If you don't want to just go to the court house then wait until after the deployment. A nice wedding takes a long time and a lot of money to plan. If you wait you'll have plenty of time to plan the day you've always dreamed of and save money to do it right. Remember, you only get to do it once, so give yourself the time to do it right! ]
