Help! Military Wedding

Jessica, on June 27, 2019 at 8:28 AM Posted in Planning 0 4
Hi everyone! My wedding is 9/15/2019 in Poughkeepsie, NY. I’m marrying a US Marine Corps veteran, and I am currently a Lieutenant in the US Navy. We weren’t planning on doing any military traditions (aside from him wearing his uniform), however, we have decided we’d like to do the Arch of Swords. With that being said, unfortunately, I am the only naval officer in/at the wedding. I’ve contacted the local American Legion several times to see if they have any suggestions, but I haven’t heard back. I was wondering if any of you would know who I could contact to have officers come to the ceremony to perform the Arch of Swords? Any suggestions or recommendations would be super helpful!

    Are either of you part of any military family groups on Facebook? That might be a good way to reach out.
