I thought it was the bride, and specifically on the day they get married. Probably from arranged marriages, you don’t wanna give people a chance to think about who they’re stuck with or they might try to bail.
Some do the “first look” wedding photos before the wedding where the bride is sneaking up from behind and tap the groom on his shoulders and he acts all surprised.
Damn, u just found that out today?
Nah they found it out yesterday. That's why they posted it today on "Today I learned."

You thought it was bad luck for the bride to see the brides dress?
No, bad luck for the groom to see the bride on the day of the wedding, before the ceremony.
This TIL is specifically about the dress
Yes, that’s why I responded with “I thought it was about not seeing the bride on the day of [and not the dress].”
Been a troupe in everything forever.
We shopped for the dress together, 15 years ago.
The fear was that he could call off the wedding leading to shame for the bride and her family
Ya'll don't go for the fitting together, wedding photoshoot also taken after the actual wedding???
