“Should I keep my elopement a secret? I don’t want my guests to decline the invite for the wedding next year because we are already married”?
…lean in Sis.
SHOUT IT FROM THE *insert expletive here* ROOFTOP! Let everyone know you are blissfully, unequivocally and happily married. They must now refer to you as “MRS. His Queen”, “MRS. I am married now”, “MRS. He put a ring on it” or ” MRS. He said I do and will say I do again next year”…any of those will do. But you you get my point, SAY IT
If you plan it they will come
Friends, family and colleagues will go wherever they intend to go to celebrate the union of two people they love and value. Whether it is the first, second or ninth marriage. Don’t hold out on your joy because you think they won’t want to come (unless of course that is what YOU want to do). Besides, who is going to miss an opportunity for free booze, food and cake anyway? Listen, if they are anything like the people I know dying to break free post Covid, for years to come we will be front and center for any and every celebration. Just to be amongst people displaying love and feel normal again. So go on, shout it from the roof top. You know you want to.
don’t let a secret rendevous stop you

By the way, CONGRATULATIONS on a happy and blissful marriage. May your incoming celebration be the cherry on top of a four tiered blinged out vanilla bean with raspberry filling and whipped cream frosting cake.
