    We did!  We woke up together like any other day.  We did all of our pictures before the ceremony.  It just wasn't a big deal to us!

    I'm somewhat undecided. I don't want him to see me in any part of my outfit before the ceremony, but I'm not really sure I care if he sees me in regular clothes before the ceremony. I've got time to figure that out though.

    We did not see each other before the ceremony.  I was entertaining the idea of it, Fi said absolutely not.  So, we didn't... and it ended up being a really great decision for us.  We still had time to get enough pics and all of that, too.

    He will be staying with his dad that night before the wedding :) We will do our photo's before the ceremony just because as a guest i'm sooo tired of waiting 1 to 2 hours for the bride and groom to show up. I once waited 4 hours for a bride and groom while they played on golf carts and took pictures. We were soo hungry we thought about eating the ice scuplture lol. I want things to go fast, ceremony, then straight to reception, then straight to food :)

    We are not going to.  We were possibly going to have to to get our reception decorations done, but my Fiance didn't want us to see each other before the wedding, so he tried to do everything possible to get the decorating done by anyone but us.  We now have that figured out, so we won't be seeing each other now before the wedding.

    We didn't, but I wish we had.   If I had it to do over again, we'd do a 'reveal' and some photos pre-ceremony. 
    I was soooo nervous walking down the aisle and I hardly even looked at him.  :-\

    I have wanted to see my fiance before the ceremony since the beginning.  He wasn't so sure (wanting to preserve tradition).  I convinced him too, but he wasn't too thrilled with it.  We went to his friends wedding in May and after standing up there with the anxious groom, my fiance was convinced that seeing each other beforehand is a great idea.

    I know I am going to be super anxious before the ceremony and who better to calm me than my fiance?  He admits he will probably be jittery too.  I think for us we have seen this as something we both need to do in order to get calmly through the ceremony!
