Can I put rank on the invitation if it's not a military wedding?

He's a Captain in the Army but he's not wearing his uniform in the wedding. Nor are the other bridal party members who are also in the military. We're not getting married in a military location, we're not planning any military activities, and we're not inviting any of his commanders. It's an ordinary civilian wedding in every sense except he and some of his groomsmen aren't civilians.

    Does an MD have to wear a lab coat to his wedding to have his title? I will say that sometimes people think that adding rank means you're going to have a mil wedding. That wouldn't matter to me. But ultimately, the person who earned the title choose if it's used.

    I always defer to Stan on things like this, and she is wise. 

    Also, hello fellow Mississippian!

    It's his title.  It's one that he earned.  If he were a doctor, that would be included. The title doesn't mean you have to have a mil wedding.  If some one were addressing an invitation to him, they should include it.  It's part of his name. He's no longer Mr John Smith.
