yeah, I was in your spot not too long ago. I was dating this hot, blonde gymnast girl from my English Comp class and I didn't realize how much of a raging pothead she was. We got along great, but her habits really bothered me and she knew it. I could have stayed with her and helped her out on her habits, but I went with my gut of cutting the ties and moving on. I don't know if I made the right choice to be the stubborn asshole instead of the accepting and guiding boyFRIEND. Fate made it all work out the way it was going to, so I can't have regrets now.

As far as your situation... I would consider what's more there for each other before considering anything else. Afterall, it's a matter of "do you want to live the rest of your life with this person?". Some people change and some don't. If she doesn't adhere to the straight edge lifestyle, it's not something to hold against her. It's very well possible that if you choose to have kids, her cessation of drinking during pregnancy will carry on after (perhaps permanently). Just listen to all the signs and ask outside advice before making a definite decision.

The grass might be greener on the other side of the fence, but you can always water your yard.
