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

    I did not want to show him my dress until our first look. He accidentally seen it today when looking at my phone. I have to admit I was so upset with him and was crying. I have kept it hidden and no photos for him for past 10 months now 26 days away and today it was seen. As soon as he saw it he quickly scrolled back and handed the phone back to me. He swears he didn't see anything except a white dress and that it was a back picture. I'm still a bit sad and upset. Then later he says I am really excited to get married now to see the whole dress.

    We're picking it out together, just as we designed our ring together. He wants to make sure we coordinate. We're still doing a first look when I'm all made up.

    Honestly I made my own dress and in a tiny house like ours, there was nowhere really to work on it and store it that wasn't shared space. My FH has seen it and even though I tried to keep it mostly hidden, by the time I was done I was so excited that I couldn't help but show him my favorite parts of it. He is my best friend after all. So, he's seen it on my mannequin, even helped me hold the train straight while I did some pinning, but he hasn't seen it on me! So that will still be all the surprise I need!

    No he told me himself that he doesn’t want to see it until the wedding. He’s superstitious and so I am but I also want him to be surprised when he sees me in it.

    Nope! We live together, but I am keeping my dress at my parents house so that there's no way he sees it.

    My husband didn’t see my dress at all. I had it home for a couple of days before our wedding and he wasn’t curious to see it. We both wanted the surprise element when walking down the aisle.

    No, I'm not superstitious but I love surprises. He won't see me in it until our first look before the wedding.

    He's only seen the stock picture, not what it looks like on me

    Mine wants to — actually he wants to come dress shopping with me too lol but I said no - I want that first look moment when I walk down the aisle — even though if he sees the dress before hand it will still be special on the wedding day
