I have been lurking for a while and really wanted to post but haven't had the chance until now...
So I have now been married for almost 2 years - we live abroad and got married here. My hubby is not a Brit, but has been over to visit the family with me numerous times. I was only 20 when we got married, and as we couldn't afford a 'real' wedding we just did it at the Registry Office and told no one, planning to have a wedding ceremony at home soon after.
Time has passed, and we have not managed to have the ceremony yet - it's getting really tough as I am close to my fam, especially my sisters. I feel dispicable for lying to them, but it feels like too much time has passed now. I just want it to be out in the open, but I'm scared it will cause a rift between me and my mother.
Should I just hang in there until we can have a ceremony? But we will be lying for the rest of our lives...we will be celebrating a different anniversary than everyone thinks.
...am I a horrible person? We are very happy together, so that is not an issue, but every time we go home it gets harder not to say something.
Panicking a bit as I am going home this weekend without DH!
