It's just 24 hours until the big day, and you say goodbye to your spouse-to-be, knowing you won't see each other again until you're at the altar. You set off for an evening of fun with the ladies while he's off with the guys, taking in one last night of single life.
The man's not allowed to see the bride the day before the wedding, it's bad luck they say. It's tradition. For that matter, you've carefully hidden your dress from his view since you first bought it (showing everyone except him). In this way, the wedding becomes an extremely secret affair that seems to find joy in hiding things from the groom.
One of the first mistakes that many brides make while planning for their wedding day is over spending on the dress. And while some brides are of the mentality that over spending on the dress is one of those perks of getting married, it will be their wedding dress after all.
For that matter, why is it so important to hide your dress from the one person you want to see it most? Is it really a matter of bad luck, or do these traditions have deeper meaning lost to the history books?
It was rumored in older time that getting a piece of the bride's undergarments represented good luck for the future. Some would obtain it in hopes of good fortune throughout the year.
While a trendy dress may cost mega bucks, a bride will want to weight the need for the most expensive dress with the need to adorn herself beyond simply the dress.
Fathers would give away their daughters. The arrangement was made and the date was set, but the groom-to-be was not allowed to see his future bride until the day of the wedding.
The bride's parents feared that if he were to do so, he might find her unattractive and call off the deal altogether. As an insurance policy, part of the deal came with going completely blind into the marriage. The bride's veil was even designed to keep her features hidden until the last possible second. It was all a ploy to increase the odds that the groom would go through with the wedding.
The next major planning mistake that brides and grooms often make is getting set on a specific flower before they know the exact date of their wedding day.
He could have backed out at any time should he have seen his bride before the day of marriage if she proved to be unattractive. Therefore it was bad luck for the bride's family to have it any other way.
This is what legend and pop culture tell us of the origins of the garter toss. The truth of the origin may be found in it, or it may be lost to time.
The occasional special request, like for the bride's bouquet, on flowers is acceptable, but if a bride and groom really wish to spend less on flowers they will plan according to the seasons to find the best deals.
Veils are still worn and dresses are still kept secret. Even though he's not going to reject her on the wedding day, it's still a fun tradition to upkeep.
