One of the "myths" (and I call it that because I don't particularly believe in it) is that for nothing in the world, the groom can see the bride with her wedding trousseau

I also consider such things as myths. Whay should anything like that have any effect.

About inhereting the wedding dress, I wonder if this a tradition specific to your family or all over the country?

I have been reading about civil or church marriages. I never knew there is a difference in two. I would love to know how the two are different and what's the significance attached to each.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us.

Good luck for your goals of home renovation 👍
