If I understand you correctly, you're concerned about where or how you could get have the wedding. Depending on where you live, that's the easy part. You could have a civil marriage, perhaps being married by a judge. (If you're not a Witness, you can NOT be married at the Kingdom Hall.)
What you really need to worry about, though, is what your life will be like AFTER you're married. That's the really hard part if you marry a Witness.

If she believes what the Witnesses teach, she will believe that you are going to be killed at Armageddon. If she is active in the congregation, she may be angry at you because you're not "serving Jehovah and taking care of the family the way husbands should," (going to the meetings, out in service, etc.). Or she may be very sad because of it, or she may feel she's better than you because you're in "the world." Or maybe all three. None of these will make your marriage happy.
You may think she would never feel this way, but these are the feelings of many Witness women who have "unbelieving mates"--and an "unbelieving mate" is what you will be in Witness eyes.

this question came out frequently from a situation known to some of us who knew of 2 cases.... if a single or married sister gets rapped by stranger or incest, a pregnancy results, she is not allowed to have an abortion but neither is she allowed to give it up for adoption?...i always question why not up for adoption?...
no you will be blood guilty because the child won't be raised in the "truth"... hmmmmm does anyone heard of that?
is it a matter of consciousness?
pioneer hour change is legit.
