B.I.O.: Stephen Doyle, Ruth McCalmon
Steve, 22, is a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army. Ruth, 25, is an account manager at a PR firm. They will live in Tacoma, Wash.
» The Main Event: A semiformal ceremony at Fort Myer followed by a reception in D.C. on May 10. "My parents were married in the same chapel, and I was baptized there," says Steve.
» How They Met: At the 2006 Army-Navy football game in Philly.
» First Date: Ruth was Steve's date to the West Point 500th Night Ball, which celebrates 500 days until graduation.
» How He Proposed: On the weekend of Ruth's birthday, Steve dropped to one knee in front of a picturesque pond.
» Stupidest Fight: "We got into an argument about the National Guard in the Kent State shootings," says Steve. "We realized after 20 minutes that we were arguing the same point."
» Pet Names: "I call her 'Booger.'"
» Making It Unique: Since "Steve and I both moved around a lot while growing up, we're naming each table at the reception after a place each of us has lived," says Ruth.
» Wedding Jitters: Ruth is worried their "guests will get lost driving from Arlington to downtown D.C. If you miss one exit, you're done!"
