I know multiple people who did this, so yes I'd argue that esp in military circles, people do this quite often.
I have no problem with it, but I would definitely make sure that you keep the "real wedding"/vow renewal, (how ever you choose to term it) with in that year time frame, or I people may think it's silly/a grab for gifts, esp if you do the showers and bridesmaids and all of that like a year and a half or more later.
