Best way to avoid family finding out me &amp; my fiance are already married? Basically, my fiance and I are planning to have our wedding this September. However, for financial reasons, we've been legally married since November. Nobody in my family knows about this, and tbh we'd prefer to keep it that way. However, I think it'll be pretty obvious that something's not right if we don't hire an actual officiant (we're broke) and don't sign the marriage certificate at the wedding. Any recommendations on ways to get around this? Like "alternative" things we could do so that family wouldn't be suspicious? Good excuses we could give?
