First of all, "Bride-to-be and I" is how you should be phrasing things, Joellg! She comes first - always!

Is there some reason why you couldn't extend the trip and leave on Monday, or Sunday?
You mentioned that the trip is booked for Tuesday thru Tuesday, which I presume is because the only way you were able to get the ticket for 200k skypesos was to fly on Tuesdays. (There was probably no award availability on the other days.)
Going earlier would require paying for an extra night or two of accommodations, but if your lovely bride and you are the only ones that need to be at the Courthouse for the paperwork, why the heck not get there earlier and enjoy St. Thomas?
