This is the best night of my life.” In addition, the 32-year-old tweeted, “I flew to Dallas and asked her if she would spend the rest of her life with me. I love you @laurenscruggs.” The proposal was held in Scrugg’s hometown in Texas. A small number of relatives and friends were in attendance.

Cupid’s Advice:
You are more than happy at the idea of spending the rest of your life with that special person and want to shout it at the top of your lungs. In the meantime, you would rather show your enthusiasm in other ways, but not exactly sure how to. Here are a few of Cupid’s tips:
1. Speak highly of your partner: This will become second nature if you are completely over the moon with your significant other. You will find yourself talking about their greatest traits that make you blush or have butterflies. For example, if they are selfless, you may find yourself telling others about this characteristic.
2. Inform others: Share with everyone that you are soon to be happily married. Tell family, friends, whoever is in sight! Broadcast it if you feel the need, unless you both have agreed to keep it a secret). If the highest mountain top were accessible, you would do it.
3. Wear your engagement jewelry: Whether that be a ring, necklace, what ever symbolizes the engagement, be sure to rock it every chance you get. This let’s everyone know, including your partner, that you are looking forward to the day when you exchange vows.

What are some advantages of keeping your wedding under wraps?
Cupid’s Advice:
Planning to get married is an exciting time in any couple’s relationship, but it also can be stressful. Marriage is a big decision and commitment, so it can be nice to be able to share news of your engagement to people, however there’s nothing wrong with not saying anything about it until you’re ready. Cupid has some advice on some advantages of keeping your wedding under wraps:
1. It will make it more special: There’s something exciting about having something known just between you and your special someone. Holding onto information until you are ready, is not a bad thing, it can be a good thing in fact because it can help strengthen your relationship. Marriage is between you and your partner, no one else, sure you’re both becoming a part of each other’s families as well, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have things on your own.
2. You can make it your way: There’s a lot of time, energy and effort that goes into wedding planning, but also in other new life changing things like deciding living arrangements. So, it can be nice to get advice from others, such as friends and family sometimes, but not on everything, especially the big decisions. Just think the less people who know, the better chance you have at not getting influenced by other’s and actually making your dream wedding, not anyone else’s.
3. Less pressure: One big up sides of keeping your wedding under wraps is you won’t feel the pressure of others, which will in turn make things less difficult for you. Sometimes wedding planning can get stressful, especially when you’re worrying about other people’s expectations, when really you should just be focusing on yours and your better half. Don’t worry about what other people will think, about the wedding, your partner, your union, whatever, instead remember why you want to get married.
