Reply to comment by iPod3G in TIL that for weddings, it is customary for the groom not to see his bride in her dress until the day of, since seeing it before is considered "bad luck". This goes back to the days of arranged marriages, where both parties didn't even meet each other until the day of the wedding. by HagridsLeftShoe

This is actually the reason though. There was a fear that if the groom saw the bride before he might run, but if he sees her at the alter there was no way out.
