I'm the same way - my eyes would give it away. If I were forced to speak of my "happiness" face to face, I'm sure my voice would expose the sadness from deep within. 
Build up those walls around your heart. Don't give him (and especially HER) the satisfaction of seeing you unhappy. Stub your toe hard, then go to the mirror and practice your happy smiling face.  Think back to a beautiful and happy moment in your life that did NOT include him, and take it with you to the meeting. Be cordial, but don't be too happy because that could give it away - it's too unnatural, given the circumstances.
The man you knew no longer exists. The man you will see at the meeting will only look like someone you once knew, and he'll be with a woman you don't care to know. Treat them accordingly. It will most likely really bother your ex to see he never mattered to you. It might even make his fiance question why she has taken your garbage. 
It's just one meeting. You can do this.
