Is it really BAD LUCK to wear your Wedding Dress before your Wedding?  

To wear a wedding dress before marriage it;s a good luck in our culture. Please don't worry about good or bad luck, just wear and see it in front of mirror. best wishes for your marriage.

When I've read the question I thought - where you wanna go with your wedding dress before the wedding? :lol I don't believe in such bad predictions. Of course you have to measure your dress and to feel comfortable in it in the Big day. I wish you a happy marriage life.

hello sexyposh,

wow! congrats for your upcoming wedding, i can feel how excited & happy you are.

well back to your topic, i am not a superstitious person and so i don't believe on it. i remember when i get married, i do wear my wedding gown a day before the wedding for the final fitting..and nothing happens the wedding go on smoothly and peacefully. and you know, upon approaching the church we even come across with 3 funerals...which they said is also bad luck, but so far nothing bad happens.

i guess it will just depend on your faith & belief, and its up to you to believe or not, but sometimes to some its better to be on the safe side.
maybe you can just get your measurement and the measurement of your gown and compare...

Good day! Fitting your wedding dress not on your wedding day brings bad luck, according to the beliefs of our ancestors...It is believed that your wedding will not push through once you did that..It is true that you wouldn't lose anything if you obey this.

But what if your wedding dress doesn't fit to you anymore?! That will be your biggest problem on your wedding day.

Since it is your wedding, you are the one to decide. Just listen to yourself so that if anything happens, you wouldn't have to blame anybody.

Just pray that good things will happen on your wedding day.. Have a wonderful married life ahead of you! Cheers!

I dont think it is. I wore my wedding dress many times before the wedding cause I thought I gained weight so I need to try it on many times so I will know if I still fit. I dont think its ever true that your wedding will not pursue if you try your dress on. Movie stars wore a lot of wedding dresses and they said its going to be bad lick when they marry but I dont think so too cause they have been married many times in their lives. I dont know where people got this superstitious belief.

Well, I have heard about this. In fact it is a common belief in our place to. But, in my case, I really do not believe on such. If you are meant to be, then you are. If not, then it is obvious that even if you have the perfect wedding, you may not be the perfect pair and sooner or later the marriage will not go long. I wish you luck and may you have a great wedding as well as a great family.

Well, I don't believe in that superstitious belief because I've proven that so untrue (sorry to those who believe it). I wore my gown 3 times before my wedding day since it did not fit me right so, the tailor needed to adjust its cut and design he he....I had the most wonderful & unforgettable wedding then!

Well I don't know how to connect a wedding dress to the bad luck part, but hey! what have you got to lose? I say don't risk it. You don't have to wear your gown until your wedding day, especially if you're sure the person who fit the gown knows what they're doing. But then if you're going to risk looking like some part of you is hanging off when it shouldn't be, then go try the gown on. LOL.. Whatever happens, You're still getting married, so I wish the both of you the best of luck!

Hi,

Congrats for your upcoming marriage and it is good to know that you have done wedding dresses already. In our place there are no such beliefs and people do wear the dress just before the marriage day to find out the dresses is fit or not. There is nothing bad on it. If we wear the dress for any other purpose or function then it may not be good but for checking the measurement it is absolutely alright.

If you are a strong believer in this superstition then I won’t suggest you to wear it before wedding. Our mind and believes has its own role in our life and don’t go against your mind. Instead try some other alternatives like measuring the size of the dress and compare it with the dress which fits for you.

Wish you a happy and prosperous marriage Life.

i don't believe that it will be bad luck if you try your dress on before the wedding day. i think it would be a bad luck if you don't try your dress on and you find out that it doesn't fit right and it will be too late to have it altered.
