Cupid’s Advice:
You’ve said ‘yes’! Now what? There are many ways to celebrate your engagement, and keeping a secret is just one of them:
1. Avoid the Q&A: The engagement period is meant to be a special time between you and your fiancée. Keeping it a secret can help keep both of you relaxed while avoiding never-ending questions from friends and family.
2. Keep family peace: Unfortunately, your family won’t love just anyone you bring home. If you’re certain that your current mate is “the one,” keeping your engagement a secret will keep the peace.
3. Easily elope: While it’s been said that every girl dreams of the day she walks down the aisle, most people forget about the months of chaotic planning. An alternative choice is to remain mum and elope! Just be sure to send out a beautiful photo to friends and family who missed out.
