Nothing wrong with it but as far as the pedicure goes, lol, you have to ask him if he would mind :) Good luck!

lol true... but since we are gonna keep it simple he should... plus he does alot of work and sport AND REALLY NEEDS IT!!

I think you should do whatever you want. I personally did the usual, you can't see your groom until you are walking down the aisle. But there are no set rules any more.

Me and FH will be spending our wedding mornings together. The big wedding in Feb is starting at 5pm so we plan on spending the night together having a relaxing breakfast in bed and a spa and then he'll go off to get himself and the groomsmen ready while I have the girls in my room getting our hair and make up done. I dont think its bad luck to spend the morning together and because I stress so much itll be good to have him there to keep me calm.

my thoughts: dont do it.
i think on your wedding day, you shouldnt see your FH untill you walk out to marry him. but maybe thats just me.

Do what you want. There are no rules you have to follow. As for the pedicure, convince him that it is not about pretty feet but relaxation.

we spent the night before the wedding together and therefore saw each other that morning. We split up to get ready and didn't see each other until the moment I walked down the aisle. Each couple is different and you should do what would make you 2 the happiest on your wedding day. Sounds like a good plan to me since you will spend some time together but he won't get to see you as a "bride" until you walk out....but I'm not superstitious either. It depends how much build up you want

I think on the day of the wedding you should not see each other until. You should get together the night before and exchange gifts and a little lone time than. And the next thing you know when you see him during the wedding it will be a different feeling.

Well, I ain't spending money at a one of the crappy hotels in town to spend the night and neither would my FH, and our parents houses will be full of guests (and his live 45 mins out of town) I know for a fact I won't sleep a wink because I never do when I'm not at home in bed with him..It's up to you my dear!

I personally want to spend the entire day with him - after all, that's what the wedding is all about, right? His parents are big on tradition though and may put up a fight, but I think we'll end up spending the morning with each other, getting ready seperate, and then having pictures done before the ceremony. If I had it my way we would just spend the entire day together.

Thanks for the comments ladies. I haven't slept with any man so I didnt mean that I would go over to his place (just to clear up) and I was thinking a bit like wowjunkie that I want to spend all my wedding day with him. Afterall we are planning to do the pictures together early to do the pictures while we are fresh and our smiles are strong. Having the pedicure togetehr would be to relax and he wouldnt see me all fixed up so it'll still be a surprise. Our wedding will be till 4 so it would be a LONG TIME TO NOT SEE HIM!!! it would also help me relax.... overall..

also, my FH gets busy sometimes that he forgets to have breakfast and on such an important day I want to double check he atleast gets his breakfast so while the ceremony is going on he wont have his stomach growling lol

It's your day. Celebrate how you want it. :)

Thanks Felecia! I will do it I think.... now I gotta see that I dont get busy and would cancel on him :o(

You hit the nail on the head, spend the time with him, with your photographer. You will get FAR, FAR, FAR better pictures if you don't try and squeeze everything into 45 minutes between the ceremony and reception. You will ALL be much better relaxed then.


The whole "Bad luck" seeing each other before the wedding comes from arranged/forced marriages. I highly doubt that many people here are in an arranged marriage. In most cases these couples didn't even know/meet each other until they walked down the aisle. I always find it kind of interesting when people buy into the superstition and they don't even know the background to the legend!

I THINK DO WHATEVER FITS U BEST. PERSONALLY WE LIVE TOGETHER SO IM GONNA HAVE MY HAIR DONE AT HOME, AND OUR PICTURES DONE WHILE GETTING READY AND THINGS LIKE THAT. SO WE WILL BE TOGETHER THE WHOLE TIME. WERE ALSO GOING TO BE TAKING OUR PIC AT THE PARK PRIOR TO THE CEREMONY AND RECEPTION. I DNT THINK ITS BAD LUCK IT ONLY IF YOU BELIEVE IT WILL. HIS MOM KINDA FREAKED AND SAID IT WAS BAD LUCK SO I TOLD HIM IF HE WANTED HE CAN STAY AT HER HOUSE BUT HE SAID NO THAT HE WANTED TO BE WITH ME. GOOD LUCK ITS UR DAY DO WHAT MAKES U HAPPY!!!

If we had an evening wedding I'd probably end up hanging out with him and our families for breakfast in the morning. With our schedule we'll part ways after the rehearsal, he'll probably be frantically packing for the honeymoon that night knowing him while I'm finishing with flowers/cake/decorations or what not, then sleep in tiny bit before getting ready and meeting at the church for photos at 11am then split up while the guests arrive (eat a little something with our BMs and GMs) and meet back up at the alter then never leave each others side the rest of the day (or night)!

my wedding was at 5pm we spent all day together he watched me get my makeup done but wasnt allowed to see me get into my dress and the feeling was great walking down the aisle he knew what I looked like with the make up but didnt know how i looked all together with the dress jewlery and all. he still told me I looked beautiful when my dad gave me to him.

I think just the fact that I'm gonna be his Bride will make him all curious. and I wouldn't want him to see me all dressed up before the church to give him the full surprise but then again... if he sees me all fixed up before going up the altar he can be able to show his true emotions and words rather than to be quiet and nervous while receiving me.... Cuz I can already imagine him saying "DANG BABE.." now imagine how that would sound at a church ir with all the people seeing us? lol

Definately get him to get a pedicure. You can get some nice footsie shots and it would look nicer if his feet were fixed up. As for not seeing him that day, I'm leaning towards not.
