my fiance and i are both ad af.. hes stationed in florida and im in nebraska. we're getting married june 14 2012. we havent announced it yet because we wanted to wait until we go home in june to see both our families (hes from new york and im from vermont, we're taking 3 weeks of leave and this is when our engagement will become "official")
we have a little bit of a situation. his twin sister got engaged a couple months before us and chose to have her wedding in july 2012. obviously because her engagement was announced before ours we dont want to upstage her big day at all but we also dont want to change our date. she will be having a huge wedding paid for by my fiances parents. we came to the conclusion that we should elope and then on our 1 year anniversary have a wedding celebration.
we have no idea where to go from that decision though..
how do we go about eloping? should just our family know or should we announce it to everyone and how? should we get married say in florida and then a couple days later go on our honeymoon? can we get married on our honeymoon? what paperwork do we fill out for the military? + plenty more questions from the both of us.. as you can see we really have no idea what we should do. any comments/opinions/suggestions/ideas are greatly appreciated
