Are you sharing your elopement date?

Hi there! My fiance and I recently decided to "elope." I have elope in quotes because everyone on our previous guest list already knows we're eloping, they just don't know the date. So technically it's not a by the definition elopement. We're having a "celebration of marriage" party 2 weeks after we elope to celebrate with close family/friends, but have cut off about 20 people from the original guest list (yes we have sent them cancellations and explained). My question is: did anyone share their elopement date counting down to the elopement? I still want to be able to post pictures with our countdowns, but I guess I don't want that to seem weird since nobody is invited to the actual "elopement." Or maybe it doesn't matter since everyone already knows. What are your thoughts?

I mean, it's impolite to talk about an upcoming event to people who are not invited, even on social media. A continuous countdown is even more in your face. But, to be real, no one will be as into your wedding as you and your FS. Save your pics for your memory book.

I think it's totally fine to share the elopement date with those who directly ask about it, but I personally probably wouldn't share it on social media. It might cause some confusion especially among those who are invited to the celebration of marriage party (they may think the party date got moved to the elopement date, or they may feel like they're being left out of an event).
