The hubs and I got married via JOP. We will celebrate our 5 year anniversary in just 2 months and we have still not had the "real" wedding (we never really had plans to). At first I had regrets of not having an actual wedding...5 years later though, I have NO regrets at all. Weddings are crap expensive! We were going to have to pay for the wedding ourselves and why waste that money on something that lasts a day (at least these are my thoughts). We do plan to do something big on our 10th anniversary (a huge party with a renewal of the vows), but until then...we are perfectly happy with the JOP.
We got married before the Navy, so no advice there. I will say though that while the hubby was in training, most people who got married during flight school did so in a 3 day weekend. Seems to be the "safest" time period.
Good luck and I hope everything works out!
