An active duty Army Soldier's Wedding!!!

Hey Friends, I am a US Army Soldier who is madly in love with his fiance. I am continuously sent away from her and it is destroying all of our plans we had for our wedding. We had all the money for our wedding saved up but due to being sent away 2 month before our wedding date all of our funds were used for the travels. We are continuously thrown into situations and we continuously overcome them with our love. I am about to head out on my second deployment after serving for 9 years and would love to give her our dream wedding that she deserves. She was stuck with planning the entirety of the wedding while i was forced to be away from her and would love to surprise her with everything she deserves! It has gotten to the point where just paying the rent, cars, and electricity is getting difficult. She works full time and models to bring in as much as she can and I get payed (well military wages), but we need that extra help to get over the hump and have our dream come true. Our date is July 7 but we have so many things to pay off before this. I would love to give this to here before going back over seas. She is the love of my life and I give her my entirety and soul. We are grateful for any help we get but we would love to raise our $5,000 back that we lost. I've also been robbed twice and have to repay all of the stuff that was stolen, we are in dire need of some assistance. She is the strongest woman I know for being an army wife and I truly would love to give her this dream wedding she has worked so hard to create. This is our wish.

Fantastic news! (Not really...) After only being back home for just under two weeks with my fiance, they're sending me away again for another few weeks. I'll be home just a few weeks before our wedding...I guess that's just enough time to HOPE everything is set and taking care of...grrr!
