Some of them had to scrap their wedding plans and get married in court within 2 weeks for the same reasons. Were they a little bummed out that they didn't get to have a big shindig? Yes. Are they still just as married as anyone else? Yes. That's really the important thing in the end, you're married, and you're happy.
