I need some help....

With what you can actually show the groom before the wedding.

I know he can't see the dress, but what about shoes, bridemaids dresses etc ? I have got my shoes and wanted to check that the height would be ok but didn't know if I could show him and plus I'm going to order the bridemaids dresses but wanted his opinon on them.

Please advise Smiley smile

    Its personal choice really. My H is seeing everything except the dress. I want him to feel involved.

    I agree, OH preety much saw everything including shoes. Only thing he didn't see was wedding dress. No hard and fast rules though.

    I don't see the harm in him seeing anything tbh. I would have shown my H the dress if he had let me but he didn't want to see anything.

    Call me untraditional, but we shared everything. We went shopping together for dresses!

    My H2B has seen everything, including the dress. I'm not superstitious and he wanted to see, so why not!

    My OH is not going to see dress, veil or tiara. Tbh he doesn't want to see any of it anyway but I think the surprise of his face seeing me all dolled up in my dress in church is going to be lovely! But it is each to their own.

    Good idea to try the heel height in advance, may also help you plan photo scenarios. TBH I bet he completely forgets what they look like afterwards anyway - I know mine would!

    My H didn't see my dress or want to know if I was having a veil or not but as we both got ready at home he did see my hair and make-up which with hindsight I would probably rather have kept more private.

    I'm happy to show my OH most things. the only things I'm going to keep to myself are my dress, veil and accessories. Everything else I think he SHOULD see and be involved in.

    Its a totally personal choice though.

    Thanks everyone for the advice ?

    I have shown OH a pic of the bridemaid's dresses and to be honest, he wasn't really that interested but I think he liked the fact that he felt involved. As for the shoes, I have yet to show him those but just really wanted to check the heel height.

    I'm only keeping the dress secret (and what's going under it ? )
