So long as the marriage is legit, the military doesn't have a whole lot to say about it. You'll pay less in taxes if you're filing as head of household, and you'll be eligible for either on-post housing or else a housing and cost-of-living allowance for housing off-post (it all depends on availability), as well as separate rations, rather than a meal card.
Fair warning - the military life is tough on relationships.
You can be stationed with the person you get married to.

As it is the "liable state" they will keep being paid to you as long as you comply with their regulations and keep them informed as to your progress and earnings.
There are a few reasons why people may choose to get married before joining the army. One reason is to provide stability and support to their partner while they are away on deployments or training. Additionally, being married can provide certain benefits, such as housing allowances and healthcare coverage, which can be advantageous during military service. Finally, some couples may choose to get married before joining the army to ensure they can be stationed together or have more opportunities to live off-base.
Only at the cost of their careers - any relationship of a personal nature is against regulations (related examples in regulations are dating, shared living accommodations, sexual relations, commercial solicitations, private business partnerships, gambling and borrowing money). The regulations are covered in both the Uniform Code of Military Justice (Article 134), Navy Regulations, and OPNAV Instructions (CNO Policy), which is the preferred guideline. It should be noted that it makes no difference if the members are from separate services. Aside from long-standing tradition, it has always been found to be prejudicial to the rule of maintaining order and discipline, as it underrmines the military rank and authority structure. Having said that, the practice does occur in secret, and quite often couples will wait until one or the other has separated from the service to get married, at which point there's not much the military can do, unless it can (and wants to) prove that those involved were involved during their time in service together. The problem is that it's virtually impossible to keep such a secret while in the military, and the military does not look favorably on such relationships. Marriage between 2 enlisted members or 2 officers is quite common, even between those of different services. My own wife and I were both sailors when we were married almost 33 years ago. There were few regulations concerning in-service married couples then, other than there were no guarantees about being stationed together. We were lucky; we only had to deal with 6 months being stationed apart before my wife was able to transfer to my homeport.
The difference in being married before rather than after is you will have all the benifits of being able to see him and having special visits while a girlfriend doesnt
