If you are not married because you did not have all the documents needed, then you are not married.

If you tell them you are married, then you are not eligible for the K-1 anymore. Married people need to apply for a CR-1 visa instead. You would lose all the time and money spent and needed to start over again.

Do NOT get married before you arrive in the United States!

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

I hope you still not file any petition to USCIS. I suggested you to get married in Indonesia officially so you could file for CR1. According to the fee, it is cheaper than K1 in future. If you already file K1, you better not mentioning about your religious ceremony in interview letter.
