Your wedding, your rules.    If there are people who are important to you, that you want to include in process, then you can show whoever you would like to.

There aren't any rules about who can see your wedding gown before the wedding. This notion is more a superstition in some cultures that it may bring bad luck for the groom to see the gown before the wedding. Some brides come shopping with the groom. Some brides come with all their friends. Some just with the bridal party and some with their mums only.

It is what works for you and is important for you as the bride.

We love the "wow" moment when the bride walks down the isle and all her friends and family see her in the gown for the first time. It is a great moment for all.

Weddings are so personal that you need to do what is best for you.

There are no set rules and is totally your decision! I have seen the full spectrum from grooms involved in choosing the wedding dress, to brides showing absolutely no-one else until the big reveal on the wedding day!

At the end of the day do what blows your hair back and gives you the most JOY and excitement!
