I want to go try on wedding dresses with my fiancée...HELP!

Just do what you want if you don't care that he sees!

If you two don't mind then it's no one else's problem if he goes with you. I'd suggest not taking a big group anyway. After you narrow it down to a few you like maybe take your mom/MOH for the final choice?

The whole "can't see wedding dress before wedding" thing is stupid and archaic. Unless you want it to be a surprise (doesn't sound like it) then go for it.

Think of how many couples before you have followed the "groom not seeing wedding dress" tradition before you and had bad marriages. A couple is what makes the marriage work, not traditions.

I think that if both of you are down, then go for it. You'll look completely different on your wedding day after your hair and makeup are all done up. The wow factor will still be there.

He could go with you and give you feedback and you can go back by yourself and order it because by the time your wedding comes he would probably have forgotten what it looks like, at least the details of it

If you want to have him there, then go for it. If you want to maintain some element of surprise, you can have him give you feedback on different dresses that he likes and then you can go back another time without him to make the final choice. This way you can have his opinion, but he won't know exactly which dress you chose. Plus, when you are all done up with hair, makeup and accessories on your wedding day, you will look different than how you looked just trying on dresses in the store. So he will still be surprised.

DF went with me. He helped me try it on after it got here (David's Bridal online order). I don't see a problem if you're okay with it.

Why do other people's opinions matter to you so much? It's not their relationship/marriage/dress. If this were a guest experience issue, it would be one thing, but about the dress? Nah, do what you want.

If he doesn't mind, then take him!

You do you. I personally find that superstition pretty silly. I had FH help me zip my dress the other day. We're doing a first look, so he'll definitely see it before the ceremony. If you and your fiancee both prefer shopping together, go for it.

You could always have him leave when you pick out accessories if you want to save a tiny bit of surprise, or follow MzRosaLu's suggestion.

If it's what you want, go for it.

I don't see any issue with you two going dress shopping together. It does take away the "surprise" from the wedding day, but if you're both cool with that, have fun.

I do find it suspect that you do "EVERYTHING" together though.

It's totally fine for him to go with you if that's what you want!

When you get a chance, please change your avatar (profile picture). Right now we're just seeing the default double rings picture (or other default avatar), and that makes it hard for us to tell you apart from everyone else and start getting to know you. You can choose a picture of yourself or just about anything that you like...it's up to you! I'm posting instructions below, but if you have any trouble, just email a picture to community@weddingwire.com, and we'll be happy to update it for you!

Go for it! It takes some of the suprise away from the wedding day but if you two are both comfortable definately take the person you want to take!

Take him with you if that's what you want. I took FH with me to my first appointment and my SIL told me, 'well, now you can't use any of those dresses!' I just let her words role off. I'm not superstitious. If seeing my dress before the wedding ruins our marriage then maybe we need to be looking into not getting married. As it is, he hasn't seen the dress I did pick out because I love surprising him.

Also, my supervisor said her husband went with her to the dress shop and they've been married for 27 years now!

I wanted to go with my fiancé but he wants to be surprised. I'm doing my best not to spoil it lol.

If that is what makes you comfortable, then like the others say, go for it. You will not be the first bride to be that her FH saw the dress or help pick it out. Watching "Say yes to the dress," there are many grooms that accompany their bride to be.

Thank you guys sooo much for your help!! I think I'm gunna just take him with me because he means to much to me for it not to be an "US" thing.

I think bringing your fiancé is a personal decision that has the potential to be just as special as if it happened on your wedding day. And I'm sure he'll be just as ecstatic to see you in your dress then.

I personally considered doing this too but my FH wanted to do it traditionally and be surprised. He hates surprises 99% of the time so I find it really adorable that he wanted to go this route.

My fiance wanting to see my dress and I wanted him to see it so he could get the picture of how I want the theme of the wedding to be but everyone tells me not too...I don't see a problem with it.

I say go ahead and take him... I took him to 2 different boutiques with me to get his sense of style. I ended up going with something he didn't see me try on, but we didn't care if he saw me in it... I still think he will be surprised when that day comes
