It is forbidden for a suitor to openly declare his love to his fiancée due to the potential for fitna (strife/temptation) that this may cause, as he is a stranger to her before the legal marriage contract. However, after marriage, it is permissible to express it, as long as it does not contradict custom and traditions.
