    He has, but he doesn't know it. We went wedding dress shopping right after getting engaged and I tried on a bunch of dresses. I ended up picking one of those six months later when I went shopping for real!

    Nope! I literally called him that night after I got it, told him the whole story, and told him it was "pretty and a dress." Haha! He isn't allowed to know anything beforehand, and if I can keep from telling him it's ivory instead of pure white, I'll keep that a secret, too! We aren't even doing a first look. I just really want to surprise him.

    He has seen it, but doesn't know it! He also doesn't know that it isn't white or ivory, so the color of it will be a surprise in itself because it's platinum! We do plan on doing a first look because he didn't want me to be superstitious about seeing it before the wedding.

    No I don't want him to see it until I'm walking down the aisle

    My husband didn't see mine until the morning of our wedding day. We got ready at home together.

    No, he will not see it until our first look. He has seen some that I tried on and hated but has not seen my dress.

    Always go shopping with FH, he has great fashion sense! I really wanted to show him mine, and he saw a bunch of the ones I was going to look at (I'd printed pictures). The one I bought was actually in that bunch of images, so he's technically "seen" it, but doesn't know it. When I spoke to him before I went shopping, I asked him if he'd want to go because I didn't mind if he did, and he said as much as he'd love to go, he'd rather be surprised! So I haven't shown him, even though I'm dying to tell him what I got

    Nope, but by his choice. And he won’t let me keep it at home because he doesn’t want to be tempted. I wouldn’t care at all if he saw it!

    My fiancé helped me pick my dress out. I knew it was the dress when I walked out and his face was in awe and studdering words I then turned to the mirror and fell in love with the dress too. I know they say the first look is supposed to have that awe moment but I’m sure on our wedding day with my hair and makeup and everything it’ll be even more magical and my groom will still have that awe struck look if not more.

    Yep, same here! I asked if he had any specific wishes for it and he said he kind of preferred white to off-white. But the shop I went to looked like everything was white until I came across a “purple” dress. Then she told us that was white and everything else was ivory. I didn’t even try on the white! I don’t think he’ll even realize it’s not pure white. Haha!

    Nope. I even had to try it on the other night with new undergarments. I asked him to bring me the dress in its bag and then kicked him out. Lol

    My fiance has technically seen my dress dozens of times, because it was his mother's wedding gown. So he grew up looking at it in pictures and when she'd pull it out of the preservation box to show it to him and his sisters when they were children. However, he's never seen it on me at all, and it definitely looks different with the alterations I've had done.

    Dress he's seen (at my gorgeous MIL's wedding in '88:

    Although it is very tempting he hasn't seen it. He won't see it until I walk down the aisle.
