My husband and I picked everything out together including the dress. We’ve been happily married almost 14 years.

You do you and don’t worry about what others think. Being superstitious is silly.

I don’t think it’s weird, if that’s what you all want then go for it! Every one has their own way of doing things.

If you are comfortable with it I would go for it… it’s an old wise tale for bad luck

I think it’s sweet. He’s your best friend and your working on a project together and want to share this part with him and get his opinion. He’s the only other person you want to make happy with your dress on the big day. I love this 
You do you. I wouldn’t worry about what others think. If you and he are happy that’s all that matters

I picked out my wedding dress and then tried it on for my fiancé before buying. He loved it and been married 27years. You do what makes you both happy
It is your wedding. You do as you guys want. Congratulations and hope you have a happy healthy marriage.
My now husband went with me - we’ve been married over 20 years. Dresses and old wives tales don’t have anything to do with how long your marriage will last.

It is up to you and your future husband how you want to do it. Don’t worry what others are thinking. It’s your day not theirs.
Not at all…it’s unusual but, not weird. Alot of these old wives tales are just silly and unnecessary!
No, my husband came with me as well. Do what YOU want!
Is it weird no, is it unusual yes. Most brides like to keep their dress a surprise till the wedding day.

You do it your way…I proposed to one of mine!
My husband came with me but he waited in front and didn’t want to see my dress til the wedding day
Hell yes leave him ass home
Do what works for you. If you believe in the bad luck thing then I guess don’t though lol
Nothing wrong with that. Maybe take him, pick a top 3, and then surprise him with your choice on wedding day

I wouldn’t want him seeing me in it bc I’d like it to be a surprise, but I don’t think it’s weird. You do you!
I don’t think its weird…i guess it depends on if you buy into all the superstition stuff…
I don’t think its weird at all. Just because it might be different than what some might do, doesn’t mean its weird or you can’t do it. You said right in your post, you and your mom aren’t close. Personally, I would do what I want. Not what others say
This isn’t the 1800s… why won’t these old silly superstitions die???
If that’s what you want go for it
I’m a tad superstitious and agree that the groom seeing the dress before the wedding is bad luck…
But it’s a silly tradition.
I wouldn’t do it, but it ain’t my wedding. It’s yours. You do whatever you want!
Congratulations!
Mine came with me. I tried on several dresses, he told me which ones he liked, then I picked one and still made it a surprise.
There is nothing wrong with it you do what you want.
