Have to keep it a secret for another week!

My wonderful fiance proposed on the 17th, and I couldn't be happier!! I'm just dying now because I'm in a sorority, and we're supposed to keep it a secret from our sisters until we have this ceremony. The ceremony is every girl's dream, 200 girls in a room screaming with excitement about your engagement, and mine is scheduled for the 26th. I've told my closest sisters, but I can't put it on Facebook yet and I take off my ring if I run into a sister. I just wanted to put it somewhere online that I am finally engaged!!! It doesn't even feel real yet!

    Question for you, so how does it get scheduled then if no one can know about your engagement?

    In our sorority you toldl the president, who schedules it for the end of a meeting.

    I think in some sororities they say that *someone* got engaged, but the sisters don't know who.

    Anyway, CONGRATULATIONS!!! My fiance and I kept it a secret from our parents for a while. We wanted to tell them, but in person, and it didn't happen for MONTHS. It was awful! I feel your pain. But at least the two most important people know and are happy!!

    I just loved mine and you will LOVE yours too! Luckily with the timing of my engagement, we were able to line it up with a meeting the very next day!! :-) There were 3 other girls all at that "almost engaged" point when I had my reveal, so a lot of girls were really unsure which one of us it was!! Enjoy it!!! It becomes real SUPER fast once those 200 girls all ask you if you set a date, who is in your wedding, etc!! :-)

    Congratulations.

    I am happy you like this situation of 200 people fawning over you, but its not for me. Personally I think the engagement is a private afair the wedding is a public declaration. I would not want this fanfare of people so no its not every woman's dream. I also didnt want a camera man at my enagagement, or 500 people surrounding me when it happened. Then again I also think that outside under the sky god created you're closer to god than in a brick building made by man. However that being said that is what makes us as humans wonderful our differences. I am overjoyed your proposal, and announcement will be every thing you've ever dreamed of.


    Many Congratulations and I hope your reveal is everything you want it to be. Enjoy your engagement as well!

    I just got engaged on a vacation with my now fiance :) But I only was allowed to tell 1 person and he was too. We aren't telling our families until the 9th it makes it more exciting though to keep it a secret :D
