    My OH knows pretty much all the details- except my dress. He has seen my accessories and shoes, helped pick the bridesmaid dress and other things like that. I don't mind, as he won't see it all until it's together. :)

    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 have done the same, all the way through BFGW I was sitting there saying mine is so much bigger and better than that, but when the lit up butterfly dress came out I had to admit it was bigger and better than mine ;)

    All I get in reply is rolled eyes and a "whatever" :rotfl::p:p:rotfl:

    My h2b knows my dress is white, and he's seen my shoes and the BM dress (although not on her). I've told him I want a circlet not a tiara but that's about it.
    I'm getting silk flowers so not sure whether to show him or keep it secret til the day :)

    I accidentally let slip the colour of my sister's dress to her OH about a week before her wedding... and tried to backtrack as well which made it all the more worse. I felt pretty bad about it, but I think someone else had let slip too before me...

    My oh doesn't know what mine's like - except that it's "wild" as the florist called it! So he's no idea what to expect - although i let slip that i was worried about my arms - so he knows it's strapless, and also that I'll have trouble walking - so he knows it's long. What else is there?

    Turns out I'm pretty bad at keeping secrets! :rotfl:

    H2b was making such a fuss when I was dress shopping about how my dress had better be white, that I snapped and told him it was red. The look of disappointment on his face was priceless. He still believes it, so it'll be a nice surprise for him on the day.

    For those of you who haven't seen it - my dress is not red. My bridesmaids are in burgundy and that would clash. :rotfl:

    My OH knows my dress is pink (doesn't know what kind of pink) and he knows it can be strapless or can have straps. He also knows it's just below the knee. As long as he doesn't see me in it before the big day, I don't mind if he knows what it's like. I know what his suit is like but i'm not seeing him in it til the day either. :) I don't really believe in the superstition of him not seeing the dress, I just want him to see me with my hair/make up/accessories etc.

    My VBF told my OH the colour of my dress on her wedding day by accident! I was raging as its a proper coloured dress ie not just her saying it was 'white' or 'ivory'.
    Surprise totally ruined :(

    My mum blurted out details of my dress in front of my MIL2B, FIL2B and OH several weeks back. It was only the fact it had straps but I really wanted to keep that fact a secret!
