Who can see/ i talk to about my wedding dress? (about ideas)

Sfam, on July 28, 2019 at 9:52 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 14
I don’t want to talk to fiancé about my wedding dress and all that, because he can’t see you in any of the wedding stuff until the wedding day. I know that Smiley smile but I know I can talk to my mom, and sister, but can I also talk to my future mother in law about it too ? About ideas of my dress ? Or is it just suppose to be a secret until the day of ? I haven’t shown her any specific dress, just talking about veils, and shoes/heels and ideas! Lol she and his grandma are excited about our upcoming wedding ❤️

    You can tell and show whoever you want, even your FH if you choose. You could show the whole world or not a single person. It’s your choice.

    I had my mother in law come with me to dress shop. And she also helped pick out the veil and jewelry. I haven’t showed my fiancé and some family and friends. It doesn’t matter to me if people see it before the wedding because I know I will look different with my hair and makeup done. I just really don’t want my fiancé to see me until I walk down the aisle.

    My FMIL has seen my dress. There is nothing wrong with that. You can talk to whoever you’d like to about it.

    I've shown my dress to my bridal party, parents, and a few of my mom's close friends. FHs mom and step mom have also both seen it. I kinda want it to be a surprise, but it mostly just matters that FH doesn't see it. I'm also only keeping the dress a secret. Not my shoes, hair, accessories, etc.

    I invited my MIL & SIL to go with me dress shopping but they couldnt make the trip out here. But I sent them photos of the dress after I bought it! They knew not to tell H what the dress looked like.
    You can talk to anybody that you want to about your dress!

    All of the females in my family and family to be have seen my dress. I think that’s totally okay! But it’s personal preference, do what makes you comfortable!

    You can talk to them. There is no rule that says the FMIL can’t know what the dress is. If you want it to be a surprise than do be it, but you Can share the dress ideas.

    Plus we all love the dresses and accessories! Feel free to talk and share here!

    The only people who know what my dress looks like are the moms and my bridesmaids. They were with me when I picked it out.
    I did have a couple people ask but I joke and say “it will ruin the surprise”, etc.

    My mom was with me when I picked out my dress and my FMIL was there with me and my mom at my first appointment (she couldn’t make it to the 2nd a week later) I then proceeded to show the picture of me in my dress to pretty much anyone and everyone I could in the week following. The only person who hasn’t seen it (pretty much) is my FH and that’s because my mom is VERY into the superstition about seeing the dress before the wedding and banned him from seeing it and even though she lives 3,000 miles away, he’s playing along xD.

    I talk to my FH about my dress. I've even showed him pictures of styles similar to what I want. It was a good thing I did since both our dream attire happens to be from the same era. Our theme is 1930s. I won't let him see the actual dress or me in any dress until day of. But it was important for us to discuss attire since our styles were so very specific. I think as long as you don't give too much away you're ok and can talk to whoever you want. I talk to some friends about the wedding but leave out specific details to not give too much away.

    I think I've told everyone BUT FH about the dress. I have pictures on my phone and if people ask, I just whip it out!

    I've worked at the same restaurant for 6 years, so many of my regulars are checking in on me as we get closer. I've even shown the dress to them!


    It's your dress, you show who you want!

    You can talk to her about it if you trust she wont go around telling other people about it.
