Did you take your partners taste into consideration when buying your dress?

No, he doesn't really have opinions on what he would have liked (I guess that it be white?). He doesn't like trumpet "feather duster" dresses but I didn't want that for my dress anyway so no harm, no foul.

I did show him pictures of the dresses I liked to try to get a feel for what he thought, and I ended up showing him some pictures of me trying on the ones I liked because I was having a really difficult and emotional time deciding. I'm not showing him any pictures of my fittings though as I got the dress customized a bit and wanted to surprise him a little. As long as I'm happy, he's happy.

No. I bought the dress I loved. I knew he would like it no matter what I wore

I just took my fiance with me when I went to my first dress appointments. I had an idea of what I wanted and asked him what he did and didn't like about different dresses I picked out. Then I scheduled another appointment without him to make the final decision so there would still be some mystery. In the end the choice was mine but I wanted to include his thoughts in my decision making as that's how we've done all our wedding planning.

I'm lucky because he and I have similar taste. We're not over-the-top, more like simple and relaxed. I'm getting whatever dress I fall in love with, and he's such a sweetie that he has said multiple times that he just wants to see me happy and glowing! I have shown him pictures of different styles and textures just to see what he says because I am curious to know what he really thinks. But like I said, we have the same opinion on dress styles! It's really my mom that I'll have problems with haha!

It was my brother the first time around. He said my dress was plain and not me. So when I told him about this weekend he laughed and said he told me so. The new one I bought my brother loves and said it's "me" so I feel really confident this time around.

That's awesome that you feel confident about the dress, that's so important!

No, I didn’t talk to him about the dress at all. I just bought what I liked. He has though, guessed almost exactly what it is though. He said “I don’t see you in a long formal dress. I bet you got a short, sleeveless dress, more like a cocktail dress.” Which is absolutely right. Of course now I’m trying to convince him I got a floor length ball gown but he’s not buying it.

I kinda asked my FH what he would want to see me in and he said whatever makes me happy. His only request was nothing too revealing in the boob area. I think he will love my dress. It's all about what you feel happy and confident in.

I had my fiance look at wedding dresses online and pick out ones he liked and didn't like so I had a baseline of what to look at. Ultimately I went towards something I felt great in that I knew wasn't on his hate list, because to be quite honest I thought a lot of his choices were ugly lmao. While I obviously want him to like my dress it was very important that I feel beautiful in what I chose. My wedding isn't until August of 2021 so I have a while to go before I see his reaction.

The only thing my fiancé asked was that I didn’t get a “save room for Jesus” dress (ball gown) 😂 I bought a L’amour by Calla Blanche sheath dress, but I like to mess with him and reference all the imaginary poofs and layers of his nightmare.

I did take into consideration what I think he would like on me. He is very honest (in a polite way lol) about what he thinks looks good or flatters me. Of course I wanted a dress that I felt beautiful and comfortable in and that I loved, but his opinion matters to me too. I actually wanted him to go dress shopping with me but he refused. I did show him some pictures of dresses I tried on and asked him what he thought about them and he actually loved the one I ended up getting! (yay!) But that's just me. I think you should get a dress that YOU love and even if its not his taste I think once he sees you all dressed up with the hair and makeup and sees how happy you are then he will think you look beautiful no matter what.

I didn’t ahah because Im the one buying it and wearing jt

Oooff! That’s rough! I think guys often say they do or don’t like something but then seeing it on the woman they love changes everything.
I sorta took his opinion in to consideration but really I found the one that fit our vision/theme and looked best on my body!

Yes and no. I chose the dress for our commitment ceremony which he (and I) ended up not liking as much. We picked out my minimony dress together which we both could agree on. My dress for our vow renewal and celebration is a complete surprise and a risk because it is sparkly and that’s what he didn’t like so much about the first dress 🤷‍♀️

Wow...I can't believe he would say that! It was hard enough for me to find a dress that I liked, let alone one that my fiance may prefer. My FH doesn't really care about appearances so I didn't even take into account his feelings about my dress. I don't even think he knows what he likes lol. Personally i think that it should only matter that YOU like it, if he really loves you he wont care what you are wearing, he will be too happy to marry you to worry about it!

I did think if he'd be crying from joy or crying from laughing so hard at me looking ridiculous in a dress lol. Truth is, it was NOT my deciding factor though, I wanted to make sure whatever i chose I liked. I'm pretty sure he's not gonna like that my dress has a blush/pink undertone to it lol.

I do know he has said certain dresses are ugly when i'm watching wedding shows lol and he actually said to me the other day, i'm so afraid i say that about a dress and it turns out yours looks just like that. So far the ones he's said look silly DON'T look like my dress so that's good!

Sorry , there is only one person that has say about the dress that you are wearing and that person is you.

I didn't take into consideration my FH's opinion. I consider myself to have pretty great style and he thinks I look great in everything, so I'm pretty confident he'll love what my dress looks like. I know he likes fit-and-flare/trumpet style (anything to show the bum off!) but I'm more into a-lines (not that he doesn't like those either, just likes the former more). I want to look classy. If he says, "honey you could wear a potato sack and look beautiful", I know he'll love my dress!
