Hope Solo's plans for a top-secret wedding on Tuesday Nov. 13 didn't exactly go as planned.

Unbeknownst to the public, the Olympic soccer goalkeeper, 31, had intended to marry NFL star Jerramy Stevens in Seattle, Wash.; instead, early Monday, the former player for the Seahawks was arrested for allegedly assaulting Solo, the Los Angeles Times reports.

Dating for two months, Solo and Stevens had applied for a marriage license last Thursday Nov. 8, and had planned to wed on Tuesday. According to court documents, they argued over whether to live in Washington or Florida after tying the knot. Solo appeared in court on Tuesday, but did not speak to reporters .

Following Tuesday's court date, charges were dropped against Stevens — who was charged in 2003 for reckless driving and in 2007 for DUI.
