Are there any brides letting their grooms see the dress before the wedding day?

    Nope! He wont see my dress until I come up behind him for a first look. Not for superstition reasons or anything like that, but more because he just wants to have that "OMG" moment when he sees me all dressed up like that. I hope he gets it 🤣

    He’s not seeing my dress. I don’t really like where the tradition comes from but i just wanted it to be a surprise and i know what he would like and wouldn’t so i feel like i made the right choice and i can’t wait for him to see it the day i walk down the aisle!

    He knows the style of dress I want, but I don’t want him to see the actual dress. I want it to be a surprise 🙂

    My FH wants to see mine. But Nope I’ll see it when I’m walking down the aisle.
    We’re not doing a first look but a first touch yes.

    He was there when I picked it out. He is truly my best friend. I could not imagine not sharing this moment without him:-)

    He doesn’t want to see it nor do I want him to! I want him to be completely surprised on the big day!

    Yes my partner and I are planning to go shopping together. Her sister, brother-in-law, and nephew are the only ones invited to the wedding so we decided we would go together to pick out our wedding outfits since it wouldn't be the typical girls event to help pick out her dress. She was also worried that I would not like her pick for a dress (even though I love her in everything) and I was worried I would end up not matching any of my clothes right (colour blind). So we are planning to find her a nice green dress and a dark charcoal grey suit with a blue undershirt for me together.

    Nope! He’s waiting until the day of and gets cranky if I accidentally mention any details (it has pockets and I’m honestly beyond excited for that and I have to try so hard not to say anything!).

    I've been showing him the progress of my dress. I'm getting mine custom made and he's seen the base of what my dream dress looks like. I'm going through Anomalie and I've received a few things from them so I've had my FH help me pick out my lace and fabric options. He also knows what the sketch of my dress looks like but once I receive my actual dress and get any alterations I need done, he's not allowed to see it. He actually told me he doesn't want to do a first look because he wants to be surprised to see what it looks like once it's all finished.

    We’re waiting until the wedding day. He saw some dresses I was looking at but I ended up with something completely different so it will be a big surprise

    Yup. My FH has seen my dress. I was so excited that I showed him. He hasn't seen me in it though.
