Obviously, he won't be seeing my dress but what about hairstyles, makeup application, BM dresses?
I do not really want to show him the hairstyles that I want but I think he wants to put his 2 cents in....any ideas?
Thanks

Re: How much input does FH have...
None...his one request was to 'go easy on the cleavage' and I ignored him completely...guess what? He loved my dress!

My FH always tells me to go easy on the cleavage and I tell him 'you have to accentuate the positive'

I asked FH to tell me how he wanted to see me wear my hair and I'm going to wear it the way he likes it. He obviously wont see it until the wedding day, but I'm going to do half up and half down.

I kind of wanted to wear my hair half up, but I asked FH what he thought, and he said he loved my hair all up. I don't really like my hair all up, but since he does, I'll probably do that for him.

I don't plan on asking his opinion, I want the way I look to be a complete surprise

Thats funny - his one request with my dress was to show off my cleavage!!! i think he'll be happy with the results
I talk about it all with him - i've shown him pics of the hair trial, he's seen pics of the dress, he's seen me after the makeup trial.. The way i figure it is that he's only seen the various parts of it all and not the whole package, so i'll still wow him when he sees me for the first time that day!

Pics of the dress too?
I'll show him the hairstyles but he ain't seeing that dress until 4/15/06...unless he decides to snoop

Yup, he's seen pics of me in the dress! I'm not worried about it, the dress was a dirty sample and didn't fit right so it hardly looked glamourous. I'm still pretty sure he's going to be very happy with the end result and seeing anything leading up to it wont' make a difference. And once my dress is completely done, its going to be in our house so if he wants to look at it i dont' mind. Like i said, seeing bits and pieces beforehand don't compare to the finished product and the excitement of the day. (did i just call myself a product? )

You're good...my FH and I are the opposite...he wants it to be down, I want to wear it up, but I am not as nice as you...I was going to wear it up anyway, just because it will look better with my dress (he has not seen my dress), plus... I am getting married in june. I don't want to get all hot and sweaty...if I am dancing and my hair is down and it is a hot day...the pictures may not come out so good!

Definitely...like I told DH 'this is my one asset that I can show...nope, not skinny, nope don't have super tight arms...so cleavage it is!'...

Re: How much input does FH have...
I don;t think I'll ask him for his opinion on hair or makeup. Even the style of the BM dresses will probably be all me but he'll get a say on the color. After all- that will effect everything else too.

Re: How much input does FH have...
DEF not the dress, veil, tiara...MAYBE i will show him the makeup and hair, i dont know yet
as far as vendors, yes he does have a say, but he always says whatever will make me happy...he hasnt been real picky about anything
he wonders why we need trumpets and a wedding coordinator, but since i 'NEEDED' them we got them...

Re: How much input does FH have...
I got the dress, veil, and tiara without him. Also plan on doing the shoes without him. But as for MU and hair, I want him to like it too and I'm asking for his honest opinion. It's his big day too!!

Re: How much input does FH have...
FH is really good about everything. He said to me the night we got engaged that the wedding will be whatever I want, but he's been there every step of the way with all the vendors.
Especially with our wedding venue. We met on Jdate and the first picture he ever saw of me was taken at my sisters wedding which was at the Crest Hollow and he said it was only fitting that WE get married there since that's where he first saw me :) Of course that made me cry it was soooo sweet!
I'm no good at keeping surprises and sometimes I just want FH to see my dress, but he is ADAMENT about not seeing it, he wants to have his breath taken away on our wedding day

Re: How much input does FH have...
he helped me pick the HM place- that's about it- I like it his way- at first I was upset- it's not that he doesn't care- he just wants me to be happy
he did reguest 'no bridal hair'- meaning no updo I think
