    Mayra....are you having a flower girl or ring bearer? If you are (and they're old enough to be very responsible), have them walk with a little sealed note up the aisle to give to your FH to read before you head up. I saw on pinterest the FG or RB bringing him a note that says "i can't wait to kiss you" but the concept might just work for this as well (if they're old enough). could say "here comes your bride....and baby! Shhh....no telling yet ;" make sure you seal it. Could still be just yours and his secret!

    Congrats!! TOTALLY tell him at the wedding if you haven't already.

    I think if you are doing a garter toss you should get a Garter and put a pin on it that says "Mommy to Be" so when he pulls it out from under your dress he sees that and freaks Smiley smile But only do that (as someone else mentioned) if you are ready for EVERYONE else to know.

    I also like Lisa V's idea!!

    If you can hold out til 1st dance do it!! that would be so awesome! Then you could announce to everyone later at the reception. Or maybe even right after you tell him. Especially if he gets super excited or starts crying, people will wanna know whats goin on! Smiley winking

    Congratulations!!

    With my ex, i found out and marked on my tummy in pink "am i a girl" then in blue "or am I a boy", got all sexy and started being intimate, when he undressed me, he read it and we 'practiced' making our next one...... was super emotional for us both and not just excitement, but ended in making love and it was perfect.

    Yaayy!! Congratulations!! Can you get him a card "to daddy" and tell him you couldn't wait to give him the card you got him for the wedding? Or even wrap the test and tell him its your gift to him for the wedding?

    Oh I love Dana's idea! You could wrap the test and give it like a gift, attach a tag that says to you from little me.

    Congrats! That's so exciting. Personally I think it would be cute to go with the card from Ariel's link or Dana's pinterest idea. Smiley smile

    Congratulations!!! So happy for you! It has been said before but I would put a little shirt on your little one with future brother/sister or get him a t-shirt with future dad on it. I like the first dance idea but if you do that it will be difficult to keep the news and you don't wanna tell anyone that early. Usually you wait three months just to be sure. It will be difficult enough to explain why you are not drinking at your own wedding. Smiley winking

    Are you giving each other gifts on your wedding day?

    If you are comfortable having the news shared with all on your wedding day, what about buying a onesie that says "I love my Daddy" or a pair of baby shoes, wrapping them, and giving them to him at the reception, so he opens them in front of all your guests?

    Oh, CONGRATULATIONS!!!
