Default Grinding/ popping sound

So this just started last night, when I come to a stop at a red light and start out from a light there is this grinding/ popping sound coming from under the jeep. Once the jeep has started moving from a stop the noise goes away. This is my first 4x4 vehicle so I don't know much about the drive train or if it's something else. I'm getting married in 29 days and I don't have alot of extra money to throw at the jeep. If you have any suggestions pleas help!!

Check all the u-joints in the axles and drive shafts, also check the front hub units for play!
