Default Holiday outside the US

How soon after getting married can you leave the US for a holiday ? We are planning to marry in Dec & go for a cruise in June. Will 6 months be enough time to sort out all the paperwork ?

We've been waiting just over a year, and expect around another year yet! :|

Still, as much as we'd love to go on a cruise, to Jamaica, the British West Indies or Mexico for a vacation, there's plenty of lush places in the US to visit domesticaly at least.

Up here in Baltimore, after I had sent in my AOS of status, I simply went to the local INS office, applied for Advanced Parole, and recieved the papers in about 1/2 hour.

But it very much depends on your local office. I should give em ring...

I hasten to add that the cruise is so we can be at the wedding of Mary Ann's son.
