Wartime Wedding | comment |
The atmosphere of a lot of war stories is generally saddening and depressing, if not outright horrifying. That said, when a writer thinks that enough is enough and that these poor characters need a bit of happiness in their lives without deviating from the somber war genre, then what better way to show that than to have two characters get married? The Wartime Wedding is a great way to put a Hope Spot in a war story in order to lighten the mood. Among other things, a marriage symbolizes love and unity and can remind the characters that things such as happiness still exist. At the same time, the usual joy of the wedding day is undercut by the tragedy of war. Can also involve a Perilous Marriage Proposal. This can come in three types (but is not limited to them): Weddings right prior to war breaking out or right in the beginning of it: These marriages are usually rushed and can represent calm before the storm. It can be particularly ominous Foreshadowing. Often ends in the fresh husband going off to war and the wife becoming My Girl Back Home. These bridegrooms seem to have a fairly low chance of survival, and if they do come back, they're not the fresh-faced soldiers who got married anymore. Weddings during war: Most commonly used as a Hope Spot, especially when characters are "tired of all the fighting." This can also be done before the Final Battle, as one last "I love you," and to ensure that the now-wife will be compensated if the hero dies in battle. In this case, his odds of survival are about 50/50. Weddings right after war: When the wartime sweethearts have Hooked Up Afterwards, they're very likely to get married to show that, somehow, the characters are moving on with their lives. This type of wartime wedding generally symbolizes the beginning of recovery, especially if there's talk of children. When used as a Wedding Finale, often a Bittersweet Ending. The Star-Crossed Lovers are subject to this a lot of the time in war stories. Expect the couple to Altar the Speed. Compare Married at Sea. Beware the possibly unmarked spoilers! |

A staple in the Fire Emblem games of all continuities and especially important in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War (as it secures the appearance of the second generation characters who lead the second part's plot), Fire Emblem: Awakening (because as soon as the first generation female characters plus Chrom and/or the Avatar of either gender marry, this unlocks the appearance of the Kids From The Bad Future.) and Fire Emblem Fates because when the Avatar of either gender, Azura and the non-Avatarsexual first-generation guys marry, their children who have been raised in other dimensions also show up.) | |

Harry Potter: Bill's and Fleur's wedding in the seventh book. For added bonus, the reception eventually falls in the crossfire, too. While not shown, Lupin and Tonks marry between the sixth and seventh books, more than a year after the Second Wizarding War officially commenced. Molly and Arthur Weasley got married during Voldemort's first reign of terror. This is brought up as Hypocritical Humor after Molly decries the tendency of the young to rush into marriage during his second reign of terror. James and Lily Potter also had both their wedding and the birth of their son during the last stages of the First Wizarding War. The last bit is especially important since Voldemort wouldn't fall (and the War wouldn't end) without Harry being born. |

Buttercup and Ace have one in Pipeline. Kevin the Unreliable Narrator muses that they're too young and desperate. Soon after, Buttercup gets pregnant, and they live happily for a bit. Eventually, Buttercup experiences Death by Childbirth as a result of fusion poisoning, and everyone wishes that "young and desperate" was half of their problems as more and more people die in battle. | |

Worf and Jadzia Dax, evacuating to different ships, get officially engaged at the end of the first battle of the war. And, though they initially planned to marry in an elaborate ceremony after the war is ended, after the costly battle to retake the station from the Dominion, they decide to do it right away while all they can be sure that all their loved ones can be there. Unfortunately she's killed off at the end of the season. |

Kris Longknife: Tom and Penny get married in Defiant. During the reception, word arrives that six battleships have just transited Wardhaven's jump point and are demanding the planet surrender. Tom is killed in the ensuing battle shoving Penny out of the way of their ship's bridge's ceiling as it's caved in by enemy fire. Kris and Jack plan and execute their wedding in the space of about four hours when she's ordered to take command of the war effort against the Planet Looters, so that they can officially tie the knot before revised orders can arrive putting them in the same chain of command and making their relationship illegal. |

Happened a time or two in M*A*S*H. One time it was a couple of Koreans getting married, and Father Mulcahey narrated the wedding for the benefit of those watching who weren't familiar with Korean wedding rites. Most notable would be Margaret's wedding to Donald Penobscott in Season 5, which gets interrupted by incoming wounded, forcing her to attend to victims in her wedding gown. The marriage was always troubled because of the distance between the two, and ultimately ends when she finds out Donald cheated on her (which is ironic considering she was The Mistress in Frank's marriage). | |

A B-plot in the Gaunt's Ghosts novel Salvation's Reach involves the marriage of Captain Ban Daur and his girlfriend Elodie Dutana. At first, she thinks he is having second thoughts because of a new arrival, an officer from his homeworld of Verghast that he knew once upon a time. When confronted, he explains that he never felt anything for the other officer, aside from reminisces about his old home, but he was hesitant to go through with it because "a Guardsman who gets married before a mission only does it for one reason" (to provide for his wife in case he dies by ensuring she gets his pension) and he didn't want her to think that he wasn't coming back. He realizes he could just explain that, and they are married on the troopship by Gaunt, with the entire regiment as witnesses. During the mission to Salvation's Reach, Daur is seriously wounded, but recovers. | |

In Game of Thrones, there's a war going on pretty much the entire show, so any wedding that happens is a wartime wedding (except maybe Dany and Drogo's, since they're not in Westeros). A notable example is Robb and Talisa getting married after he meets her working as a Battlefield Nurse, which unfortunately means he breaks his marriage alliance promise with the Freys. This directly leads to a second wedding, at which both of them are murdered. | |

In Season 2 of Pennyworth, Thomas Wayne and Martha Kane marry while London is besieged by the Raven Union. Partly because they really love each other, and also because they want to legitimize their child who's not a boy, shockingly. | |

Eliza and Alexander's wedding in Hamilton. They meet when Alexander attends a ball hosted by the Schuylers (presumably near where the Continental Army is encamped), and are married not long after, with Alexander's war buddies serving as his groomsmen and Hercules Mulligan as the flower boy. | |

Bait and Switch (STO): Word of Godnote The story where it takes place has reportedly been in Development Hell for several years. is that Kanril Eleya and Reshek Gaarra got married the night before The Alliance attacked the Herald Sphere, expecting a Suicide Mission that neither of them were going to come back from. They both survived and got to deal with the hilarity that ensued from getting married without having invited either set of relatives. | |

If you count the seven-year Tribulation period in the Left Behind series as being a war, then the few weddings that took place during it of Tribulation Force members Rayford Steele and Amanda White, Buck Williams and Chloe Steele, and Ming Toy and Ree Woo would count. (Judd Thompson Jr. and Vicki Byrnes of the Young Tribulation Force would also count.) Rayford's marriage to Amanda lasts for about three months at the most, as Amanda died in a plane crash during the Wrath Of The Lamb earthquake, and Buck's marriage to Chloe lasts until a year before Jesus Christ's glorious appearing at the Battle of Armageddon, when she is captured and put to death by the Global Community. The only bright spot of Buck and Chloe's wedding is that they have produced a son, Kenny Bruce, during the years they were married. | |

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End: Will and Elizabeth not only get married in the middle of a war, but also in the middle of a battle. On a pirate ship. Played for Laughs when they realize they need a minister, and decide to enlist the help of ship captain Barbossa (who, apparently, can still perform marriages despite being the captain of a pirate ship) - but when they ask him, he rightly protests that he's a little busy at the moment. In spite of this, he still does so. All participants continue to fight throughout the "ceremony". | |

In Horatio Hornblower's third series, most of Horatio's crew seem to believe his hasty wedding to Maria is because they don't want to miss the opportunity with war freshly renewed. Bush alludes to it himself, but he's also more acquainted with the matter—which is that Horatio is only doing it because he can't figure out how to turn her down. At least everyone else enjoys the festivities. | |

Forever: Henry may not have formally proposed until 1955, but he and Abigail became a committed couple and parents to Abraham in the closing months of World War II. They likely would have had to use identities that were officially married in order to adopt and parent Abraham in that era. | |

In Love And War (1958) centers on three Marines in World War II, first on leave, then in battle. One, Nico, uses his leave to propose to and marry his pregnant girlfriend. It isn't a Shotgun Wedding; they're genuinely in love and no one is making him. Perhaps predictably, he's the one of the three who doesn't survive. | |

There are several examples in Downton Abbey, which takes place in part during WWI: Matthew and Lavinia planned to marry once he came home from the war, but after he comes back crippled he decides that he isn't good enough for her anymore. Ultimately, he renews the engagement at her insistence when he is found to be miraculously healed, but she dies of The Spanish Flu just days before the wedding, in what's implied to be a Death by Despair since she has just learned his heart now belongs to Mary. Before William leaves to fight in the trenches, he asks Daisy, whom he has always loved, to marry him. She wants to turn him down because she doesn't love him in the same way (or at least she thinks she doesn't; Mrs Patmore, Mrs Hughes, and later the Dowager Countess are convinced that she didn't know what she felt was real love), but eventually accepts so he won't have to go to war heartbroken, intending to break off the engagement after it becomes appropriate. However, after he is mortally wounded and brought back home, he insists that they marry before he dies so she can have a widow's pension. She concedes, and they are married for a few hours, but it takes her a while to come to terms with the shame she feels in believing she lied to him about her feelings. When Branson proposes to Sibyl, she initially resists due to the fact that he is of a different social class and she would have to give up her lifestyle to be with him. However, she learns during the course of the war that she wants to do something different with her life, and tells him that she'll reconsider, but only after the war is over. They eventually marry. |
