Congratulations!

By Anonymous - this FML is from back in 2016 but it's good stuff - Ukraine - Kiev

Today, after weeks of being engaged and with the wedding date planned, I finally told my parents. They told me it was my best April Fool's joke ever. I should've waited one more day. FML

Everyone is skeptical about everything today. You need proof to back anything you claim on April 1.

Why shouldn't have the OP waited? Some people want to tell everyone right away and that's cool but; maybe the OP wanted to enjoy the little bubble of happiness with their partner for a little while before bringing other people into it. that doesn't make them bad. Where's your sense of romance?

Some people aren't close to their families, or the family may be overbearing and take over all plans. It's a bit hard to know why they waited.

I agree partly. If you don't want to tell people straight away that's fine. But they've only got themselves to blame when they wait until April fools day to announce it. It's a bit silly

At least they did not tell your loved one in the face as you were introducing her to the family, so count yourself lucky.

Not to raise alarm but my sister's getting married today too and they worried about this happening to them

Don't worry. My parents called all of their friends exactly one week before they got married (on April 8th), and all of their friends and family thought it was an April Fool's Day joke. Imagine having to re-explain to 200 or so people that you're actually getting married and that it's not some great big April Fool's scheme.
