Have you been to a military wedding? Were you in one? Did you have one? What was the most unique military wedding you've attended? Maybe it was just a unique element in the wedding ceremony. What about a unique location? Can you share a photo?

A Squad Leader (E-6) married his German bride in Berlin. Following the ceremony, his rifle squad held M-14s, with fixed bayonets (instead of sabers), for the happy couple to walk under.

I'd have to say it's one of these two, both of which I was the officiant for.
The one with me in uniform was my first ceremony, and I had to get permission to honor the bride's wishes for me to be in uniform because she, a Sergeant, would be in her dress instead (permission was because while this was a military wedding on post, I am not Chaplain Corps).
The other one had no uniforms, but almost everyone there was military, including the two brides, who are active-duty Navy Chief Petty Officers.
