I asked our consulate whether a church wedding ceremony would be viewed as a "legal" marriage prior to entering the US on a K-1 visa, and in our case, it would not be considered a "legal" marriage. Therefore, we are free to have a church wedding ceremony before my fiancée enters the US on her K-1 visa. Just throwing that out there for those who haven't considered contacting the consulate with specific questions.

E-mail or call your embassy and mention to them your plans. You may just get lucky and get all the answers you need. Here, you'll be told not to jeopardize your case with a ceremonial wedding, but that isn't your only option. Find out from your embassy what can be done. It may not be an issue at all.
I have a similar case where we plan on having a ceremonial wedding first, and in one e-mail I was given all the answers I needed. Easiest e-mail I ever sent. Hopefully yours will be the same. Good luck!

Perhaps not directly, but are you aware of your implication? Another life lesson I've taken, is to not worry about things that are outside of your control. And certainly how someone else wants to express themselves, about the process, would be one of those things, no?
