Tradition vs text While I know it’s meant to be bad luck to see the groom on the morning of the wedding, is it OK to text him? I know it’s silly, but what do people do? I’ve also been thinking of sending him a card via the best man, which says how excited I am, and a present. Anna Y&YW says: You’re right; traditionally, it has always been considered bad luck for a couple to see each other on the morning of the wedding, but it’s 2017, and we say do whatever you want! If you want to text each other, don’t let superstition stop you. You’re getting married to the man you love – texting on the morning of your wedding won’t change that. We like the idea…

“FOR SOME COUPLES, GUESTS WEARING WHITE IS A NO-NO” One of the best things about your wedding? This is a rare day when you’ll be solely surrounded by the people you care about.

They’re there to celebrate with you, showing their love and support. That doesn’t mean, however, that their behaviour will be entirely perfect. It’s unintentional on your loved ones’ part, but there are some typical wedding-guest behaviours that could end up raising your stress levels. But fear not!
