Bringing Fiance wedding dress shopping!

How do you all feel about this? Why is it such a taboo thing? My fiancé is obviously my best friend and he wants to go and I think it's a good idea to include him on this special day, at least for the first time trying on dresses. I get you want that surprise but either way your FH will be blown...

How do you all feel about this? Why is it such a taboo thing? My fiancé is obviously my best friend and he wants to go and I think it's a good idea to include him on this special day, at least for the first time trying on dresses. I get you want that surprise but either way your FH will be blown away when you are all done up for your wedding day. At first my mom didn't want it but she knows I'm not really traditional and understands it's our wedding.

What ya think??

    My FH didn't go shopping with me. But he was dying to see what I chose and I was dying to show him. So I caved and showed him the dress online. It's just how we are. We are terrible at keeping secrets and surprises. So I say do what works for you!

    Neither of us are superstitious about him seeing me in the dress beforehand and neither of us have any close friends here. It would have been easier if I had just taken him to begin with. The friend that I brought and I just ended up bickering and mad at each other.

    I ended up texting him pics of the final choice dresses. He knew which one I fell in love with by the look on my face and of the 3 it was his top choice as well.

    If that is what makes you two happy, bring him along! My FH however wants nothing to do with the dress until the big day and we want to keep the surprise factor so I went with my mom and MOH.

    I am in the same dilemma. My sister and I went Bridal shopping and I tried on a couple of dresses. My FH wanted to see me in the dresses thst I tried on and i said, "why would i fo that, its a surprise?". He said its only fair, i had you try on a couple on engagement rings to see what your taste was like and you never knew what i was really going to get you, until I proposed. (Which happened to be none of the rings I picked, but I loved it) sooo, he says, "show me your best 3 and then surprise me on that day"

    Do* that * sorry, haven't had my coffee yet!...lol So my sister and I will go and try on more dresses, since the first two I didn't like. But when I left, this one did catch my eye. It's like a pretty pink/blush color
