Bad luck showing the dress to FH??
Can someone explain to me why it's considered bad luck to show the dress to FH before the wedding? I mean, we share everything, there are no secrets between FH and me, so why can't I show him a picture, I want to share my excitment with him.As a side note, I don't really believe in bad luck, if it's ment to be it will be.

Re: Bad luck showing the dress to FH??
I'm torn about this too. I love having FH help me pick out clothes - he has scary good taste
But I also love the idea of him seeing it for the first time at the church. I don't think it's bad luck, I just think it'll be more fun that way for me.

Re: Bad luck showing the dress to FH??
my FH has seen pictures of my dress from online....but he refuses to see pics of ME in it...so that it's the first time on our wedding day...really cute of him.i say show him the pics of the model...then on your wedding day, it's all fresh and new to him..my FH couldn't describe my dress to me now if his life depended on it!

I am always with my FH when i find the best dresses...thats because he is only shopping for me, when my friends go we are shopping for each other and ourselves, he is like my personal shopper!and everything he finds is on sale!

FH helped me pick my dress. I trust his opinion and wanted him with me. I don't believe in bad luck either.

FH usually picks out better clothes for me than I do...but this one thing he is not allowed to see...I'm traditional it wanting him to see me when the church doors open up....I can't wait to see his face!!!I'm not sure if its bad luck per say but I really think its a nice surprise.

Bump for daytime crowd.Also: we're probably going to the church together. Getting parental blessing at my house and then going to the church, so he'll see me before the cerimony anyway.

I'm torn about this too! I have been dying to show him pics of my dress since I decided it was the one! I still may show him an online picture of it from the company's website but I'm trying to hold out

Re: Bad luck showing the dress to FH??
My FH was with me when I bought the dress. I'm not very superscious. We both figured if we are doomed we are doomed with or without him seeing the dress.

Re: Bad luck showing the dress to FH??
I thought it was bad luck if he saw you before the wedding, not necessarily the dress. Me and FH tell each other everything so its killing me to keep everything a secret. But I want it to be a surprise for him, but I dont think showing your FH the picture of your dress is going to give you any bad luck, especially since you dont believe in it.

Its not a matter of it being bad luck...its a matter of it being a surprise...even if you're going to see other before the ceremony...

Same here, I don't believe in the bad luck warning either, but I wanted to surprise him when he saw me for the first time at the ceremony. It was definitely hard keeping it from him though! There were times when I wanted to cave.
