Hi all! So...we have to postpone the wedding. I was notified today that our venue is closed (because of the virus) and won't reopen until a week and half after our original date. We have notified our families (who are basically our only guests). Oh I should mention- this is for our Destination Wedding in Key West, original date May 9th, 20 guests total.
So to the point -> My Fiance and I were mulling over what we are going to do now and how to go about it. We started talking about new wedding dates and we settled for a date next year (only reason we don't want to keep the original date is that it falls on a sunday and we found out that is actually the same date that his divorced parents got married on, lol).. My question is that we were considering getting legally married, just the two of us at a courthouse, this April 3 (new date), but having the celebration next year. What is your opinion on that? We wouldn't tell either of our families, it would just be our secret. Is that a bad idea? We've just been together for 8 years and with this spread, what if something happens - I'd at least like to be able to say that he is legally my spouse. So, is this a smart idea?
Something to consider is that my dad has a trust for me, is it realistic to keep this legality a secret, or do you think through documents from that, he would find out?
