I agree with Ustwo: ELOPE.

Xepherys proposed March 18, '04, and we got married May 28, '04.

The planning included his flight arrangements (I was in training and he had to meet me in San Antonio), hotel arrangements (my dad put us up at the Marriot Courtyard as a wedding present), confirming our appointment at the courthouse that day (no waiting period for military people... hooah!), and making sure my drill sergeants would release me and my two battles/witnesses on time to get to my own wedding. Thankfully, all went as planned and it was amazing! *wipes tear* The 'rents got to hear it over our cell phones, heh.

And I got out of a fun morning of shaving berets

It saved an extraordinary amount of money and the headache of coordinating such a huge event.
