Honestly, I wouldn't worry about it. He will probably forget about how it looked by the time you get married, plus you will be all made up on the wedding day so it will look completely different.
it'll be ok honey if thats all he saw its no big deal. I know what you mean thou mine is at my house until sat (taking it for my first fitting) and i think he has snuck a peek (?) but its totally dif that day bc you will be all done up and whatever pictures he did see will be completely out of his head :)
UGHHHHH This happened to me as well :( Doesn't that make you feel completely sick to your stomach, It did to me :( On the bright side, all he seen was the top of the back. It's not like he got the complete visual. There is still a lot left to the imagination. I wouldn't worry about that much. But I do understand how you feel. Silly Boys!!!
Thanks ladies....I sure hope that he does forget!
yes, Linds, my heart totally sank!
Yea I agree don't worry, he only seen the back anyway and you will look totally different on your big day!!
Don't worry! He only saw the back and briefly at that. And not to over-generalize, but men have the short-term memory of a gnat. He won't even remember what he's seen. You will stock wow him on your wedding day!
Honestly, guys are guys, and I guarantee you he'll forget what it looks like by October. Not to mention, he didn't see you from the front, with your veil and other wedding day attire, so I wouldn't worry about it at all!
Don't worry! This happened to me, and FI had absolutely no memory of the dress approximately two weeks later :) Honestly, it will still be a beautiful surprise to him when you walk down the aisle!
I wouldn't worry much, if he is anything like my FI he will never even remember. Also if he only saw the back then he didn't get a whole visual of the dress. And even if he saw all of the pictures you are going to look completely different once your dress is altered, hair and makeup are done, and you have all of your accesories.
Try not to worry about it. He will probably forget what it looked like. And also, your dress will look different from the quick snapshot on your camera, when he sees you wearing it in person on your wedding day.
I wouldn't worry too much. Plus, it was the back, not the front. My FI has seen the photo of the model in the magazine, but I showed it to him and didn't really care though. Heck, I have the dress hanging from the doorway to the spare bedroom that is directly across from our bedroom and the bag is hanging open to let air circulate. The dress is only peeking out a little but I know he hasn't looked. Besides, on me and on the hanger is totally different.
Try not to fret too much. He'll still be blown away when he sees you the day of. :)
I don't have any pictures of me in my dress in the house. There are a few of the dress - so he might have caught a glimpse, but will have NO idea how it looks on me!
I wouldn't worry about it.. he hasn't see the front & he probably won't remember much about it come wedding time!
Good boy...he stopped after getting to the first pic. It would have been awful if he saw more. Just put it out of your mind, he's a guy afterall and will totally forget by the time your wedding day comes.
That's nothing, just the back. Don't worry about it! Glad he sotpped peeking though =] All he'll remember (he is a guy ya know?) is that it was white.
He'll probably forget what your dress looks like, honestly! Especially since you're wedding is 5 months away. I know it'll bother you for awhile, but try and forget about it! The element of surprise will definitely still be there. :-)
On the bright side atleast he gave you back the camera before he saw anything else. It could be worse, he could've gone on & seen the front. I think it'll be ok, try not to stress too much, you have more than enough on your plate as it is. There's no need to add more to it. I hope you feel better!
Not to worry, since he only saw the back he doesn't really know what is in store. Plus I have seen other threads with pictures of your dress and the front is just stunning, he will be blown away.
He already suspected you are wearing a long white dress, so that was no surprise. He just caught a quick glimpse of you from the back; that won't diminish the impact (or the surprise!) of seeing you full-on, in person on your wedding day. No worries! At least he wasn't a brat -- he could've kept looking at photos once he realized they were on there.
P.S. Your dress looks great from the back, but even I have no idea, based on that, what the front will look like (and I'm not a dude).
I kept mine a secret for MONTHS...then the day before the wedding my FI saw a photo of me in it on my moms fridge. I wanted to kill her. Anyways, I burst into tears, locked myself in teh bathroom, and called my bridal shop and told them I was coming to buy a sample off the floor. FI begged me not to. He admitted later that all guys see is a white dress in photos. totally different than seeing it on you the day of. I promise. He'll forget :)
If that is the only one he saw, its ok, it really doesn't show much. He has no idea what the whole thing looks like or the front or anything. I bet he will forget too. Plus, details on dresses are so much different in person than in the picture. My FI saw pics of mine too, and we are like you guys, no first look, no showing him my dress until I'm coming down the aisle. BUT, I'm not too worried becuase it does look so different in person and guys have short memories! :) So no worries!!!! Its ok! :)
Hes a guy he prob wont even remember what it looks like tomorro! And it was a small part of the back it doesnt really show much of the dress.
I had FI zip me in my dress when it came in and he prob couldnt even tell you what it looks like!
Oh hun I wouldn't worry about !! He's only seen part of the back, and then even on the tiny screen of your camera. That's hardly big enough to see much at all! Plus, he's most likely looked away right the moment he realized what he was looking at to, so he most likely even missed the details and just saw "the back of a white dress" and if he's anything like my guy he'll have a short memory too! He'll have NO IDEA whatsoever what the front and rest of the dress looks like nor how beautiful you'll be when you are all dolled up and pretty on the day itself!! Try and shrug it off and don't worry about it -- it's fine!!
Hugs to all of you ladies....you are THE best!! I feel so much better!! I am also so very happy that he was honest to my wishes (knowing that I didn't want him to see the dress) and not keep looking through the pictures.
Thanks, plantains, on your complement. I absolutely love love LOVE my dress!
Here's the front (for those who have not seen her)
It'll be okay, really! I SHOWED my FI my dress before we got married (I didn't really care) and come the day of the wedding, after the ceremony he asked me if I bought a "different" dress! No, dear, I didn't. :)
Haha that's nothing...FI saw the front of my dress TWICE on my iPhone. Both times were accidents. I think he was more upset about it than i was but I don't think he will remember!
I think you will be ok. Maybe im off base here but I was so frustrated with my mom going with me to look at dresses that for my final pic I took my FI. I had 2 dresses to choose from so he didn't know which I would pic. When I saw his reaction to my true dress it was priceless and they is the one I purchased. Don't get bent out of shape you will be fine, think of it as his "sneek peek".

FI was looking in my camera at pictures of my little sister's 8th grade Graduation on yesterday. I totally forgot that the pictures of me in my dress were right before those. He looked up and handed me the camera saying, "There are 'other' pictures in there." I bucked my eyes and snatched the camera. I already knew what he meant. He said that he only saw the first one of the back of the dress (pic below).
I am so bummed and devastated. He told me not to worry about it, but I am. I have been trying so hard to keep him away from seeing my dress. We're not doing a first look or anything. I feel like I messed everything up now. Sigh....
