    My OH helped choose mine !

    He wanted a corset back and fitted to show off my curves !

    He has put me in it twice already to make sure it fits LOL!

    We have been living together for 10 years though and are getting married abroad.
  • my OH has seen all the pictures of my dress, and we are both really excited about it arriving and of course he will see it then,
    but he wont see me actually in it til the big day

    My OH doesn't know anything about my dress - so I keep telling him mine is just like the pink one with the moving butterflies and the lights off big fat gypsy weddings :rotfl:

    I went shopping separately for the bridesmaids dresses with the girls, but we decided colour and style together before hand and I showed him pics afterwards. He's been involved in everything except my outfit :j

    I really don't want my h2b to see it at all. I think its like Christmas and getting a surprise. It would spoil the surprise if he knew as much as me. My h2b trusts me to get something good. When we were first engaged we did have a quick look at dresses online. Since then i changed my mind totally so should be a good surprise for him.

    Mine knows it's ivory and lack back with sweetheart neckline but that's all - we watched loads of wedding shows and thankfully that's the style we both liked.

    He helped me with the bridesmaid dresses and colour theme - he's even doing the invites with my MOH - I love that it's an "Us" project

    I am keeping my dress a secret. He has helped me pick my shoes though. He has seen the style the BM dress is designed from and knows the colour. It is very light pink but he keeps thinking pink like gypsy weddings. We had only been engaged a couple of weeks when this series started, he had nightmares after :rotfl:

    I haven't told my OH anything, even getting rid of the pics I tore from magazines for ideas! I don't know how I'm going to resist doing a twirl for him when I get to him on the day?!
