“Do not show anyone your dress before the wedding day,” Pellegrino began. “I was showing mine to literally anybody who asked. I’m not kidding. Whether it was a friend, a distant relative, a co-worker, I was doling photos of that dress out like hotcakes, and I regret it. People are bad liars and no matter how hard they try. If they don’t like your dress, when you show them that photo, it will show on their face.” 

“So, even if you truly love your dress and feel great in it, those little opinions will subconsciously start to taint your perspective of your own dress,” she continued. “Instead, grab two to three people that you really trust, and you want their opinions on the dress, take them shopping with you, have them support you throughout the way. Only show them. That way, on the wedding day, it’s a big surprise for everybody, all your bridesmaids see it for the first time, it’s really special, and you don’t have to deal with people’s opinions.”
