I lost my green card for a year now, and as what I know it will takea couple months or year to get a new one. The problem is, we're planning to get married with my military boyfriend who will be assigned overseas. Is it possible for me to come with him after our marriage where in fact I don't have my "green card" with me?

Listen take this advice and bank on it. If you leave this country without your green card that will not let you back in when you go through customs at the port of entry. You should have a document that has your information on it where you can request a replacement card, because yours is either lost or damagedl. Also go to www.uscis.gov and there is a link to request a replacement card. Go there fill out the information and be sure you have a valid credit card. If the credit card is not valid they will not even take their time with you. Whatever you do, do not and I mean do not leave without your green card. Also on the www.uscis.gov site you can go and make an appointment at your nearest bcis processing center and they may can help you get a replacement card because of your circumstances. Go to that site and make an appointment and go talk to a bcis represenative and they will adise you. Do not listen to other people on this posts, they do not know what in the world they are talking about.

A Permanent Resident Card, commonly known as a Green Card, is evidence of your status as a lawful permanent resident with a right to live and work permanently in the United States. It also is evidence of your registration in accordance with United States immigration laws. You are supposed to carry it with you at all times. If lost, you should have reported it immediately.
Refer to the following government website about replacing a lost green card (don't go to non-government websites that charge you higher fees for the service). It will cost you $260.00.
http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=763fad861a41e010VgnVCM1000000ecd190aRCRD&vgnextchannel=4f719c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1RCRD
If you haven't done so already, I would re-apply for a replacement green card as soon as possible. The United States keeps good records in their computers at each boarder crossing but they are very strict with identification.

I think a better question should be.....Can I get married without my green card? or How come I haven't been deported yet? If it meant anything to you in the first place....you would have had it in a safer place where you wouldn't have "lost it"

the golf green Card is purely needed for entering into usa lower back while coming lower back. that is no longer needed while leaving usa and no person would even ask for it. all your dad desires is his valid passport.

Yes its possible!! make an infopass appointment at your local immigration office here http://infopass.uscis.gov/ and have them put a stamp in your passport. The stamp work as a substitute of your greencard.
Congratulations!!
