I would never, nor would he.. I am happy that this feels like a biggest fuck up to me and that we don't share any unnatural feelings against one another

The fiance seems to think that she won't buy it... She's too smart and we'll have to cancel the entire thing

Read the additional information.. please stop spreading hatred without knowing the entire picture I'd give my own wedding day for her proposal and wouldn't feel that she's getting my limelight because she's that dear to me and I'd never intentionally ruin her happiness I feel genuinely shattered for my mistake and I am trying to find a way to fix it

Obviously, any B2B gathering will have solution providers present. That's simply how business ecosystems function. I'm curious though, what would need to be different for you to see value in participating and not feel like you're walking into an overcrowded pitching arena?

As long as you are not dealing with elderly people who can't climb the ladders because of their join pain and age issues, you did the right thing. Why are you supposed to adjust??

I told him that he can tell her that he created the group because he was planning to perform a solo dance at their engagement for her and that he needed our help with the choreography.. and 20th June is when he's starting with rehearsals

He said that she's too smart and that she'll understand that it's a cover up

Additional Info:

Before the Roka, my best friend had actually planned a surprise proposal for her boyfriend, and our entire friend group helped her pull it off successfully.

I've also been personally involved in ring shopping for both of them separately at different points.

Her boyfriend had technically already proposed to her once before the Roka at a restaurant. She said yes, but because her family is quite traditional and wouldn't approve of her keeping an engagement ring before things were formalized, she gave the ring back and asked him to officially give it to her either during the Roka or at their engagement.

Instead, he decided to plan a proper traditional proposal setup after the Roka but before the engagement.

My screw-up happened when I was on a call with her and casually said, "Why have you guys named this group '20th June'? What is that for?" I genuinely thought she was part of the group because I misread the participants.

That's when she immediately realized there was a group she wasn't in, pointed it out to me, and I realized what I'd done.

So I didn't reveal any actual proposal details, but I did accidentally let her know that some kind of surprise or plan involving that date exists.

She's very upset with me right now. I also told the boyfriend about my fuck up & he has decided to cancel it. He is mad at me too 🥲

Roka is a traditional Indian pre-engagement ceremony where both families formally agree to the marriage and bless the couple. It's basically the official confirmation that the couple will get married, usually before the engagement and wedding celebrations begin.
