What are some...?
Plus, what's the one about not seeing each other the day of the wedding? Or is that the day before?
Answer
Your not suppose to see each other the day of the wedding supposedly it will bring the marriage bad luck.
Proposing and Engagement:
A woman should only propose to a man during a leap year, otherwise it endangers the marriage.
Engagement and wedding rings are worn on the fourth finger of the left hand because it was once thought that a vein in that finger led directly to the heart.
It is bad luck for the bride to remove her engagement ring before the day of her wedding.
It is unlucky for a woman to marry a man whose surname begins with the same letter as hers: To change the name and not the letter, Is to change for the worst and not the better.
The Bridal Shower:
The first gift the bride opens should be the first gift she uses.
The person who gives the third gift to be opened will soon have a baby.
The Wedding Day:
It brings more luck if the groom arrives at the church before the bride.
It's bad luck for the bride to start down the aisle on time but good luck to step into the church with her right food first.
Saying your vows when the hour hand on the clock is going upwards, makes you work together in your married life. If you say your wedding vows when the hand is going down, it is bad luck.
If the bride cries on her wedding day, those shall be the last tears she ever sheds over her marriage.
If the groom drops the wedding band during the ceremony, the marriage is doomed.
It is considered bad luck for the bride to see a pig, hare or lizard running across the road, an open grave or to meet a nun or monk on her wedding day.
Flower girls drop petals as they walk down the aisle is to ensure the new couple will have many chances to have children.
Carrying a horseshoe or a bouquet in the shape of one is considered lucky for the bride, but only if the horseshoe is carried with the open end up so the luck does not âfall outâ.
An old wives' tale is that if the younger of two sisters marries first, the older sister must dance barefoot at the wedding or risk never landing a husband.
Certain days are better than others for a wedding. The Victorians believed that it was lucky to marry on a day during the week that the groom was born. The luckiest day to marry was on the groomâs actual birthday. And, oddly enough, Saturday was the unluckiest day of all for a wedding!
You should have something old something borrowed, something new and something blue.
Something Old represents the link with the bride's family and the past.
Something New represents good fortune and success in the bride's new life.
Something Borrowed is to remind the bride that friends and family will be there for her when help is needed.
Something Blue is the symbol of faithfulness and loyalty.
Groom throwing the brides guarder which is said to bring the person who catches it good luck.
Bride throwing the bouquet which is said whom ever catches it will be the next to marry.
Time and place: Monday for health, Tuesday for wealth, Wednesday best of all, Thursday for losses, Friday for crosses, Saturday for no luck at all.
Wedding Attire:
The loan of a wedding dress means good luck to the borrower and bad luck for the lender.
A veil disguises the bride from evil spirits.
Dressing the bridesmaids is to fool the evil spirits, so they will not know who is the bride.
If the bride helps to make her own wedding dress, it will bring her bad luck. If she rips her wedding dress on the day, it means that the marriage will end in death.
It is considered good luck if the bride finds a spider in her wedding gown.
Wearing a pearl on the wedding day will bring bad luck and tears throughout the marriage.
The Wedding Cake:
The bride and groom cut the first slice of cake together to ensure that they will conceive.
The chief bridesmaid should keep a piece of cake in her pocket for the duration of the couple's honeymoon, if she hopes to marry soon.
Single female guests should take home a piece of wedding cake and place it under the pillow to dream of the man they will marry.
After the Wedding:
Throwing rice (or birdseed or confetti) as the couple leaves the church dates back to ancient times and is meant to bestow fertility on the couple.
The new bride must enter her home by the main door, and must not trip or fall, as it is a bad omen if the bride should stumble. Hence the custom of the groom carrying the bride over the threshold.
The spouse who goes to sleep first on the wedding day will be the first to die.

But as you can see from the first link, they are super expensive. If I were you, I would just go to Davids Bridal and buy an inexpensive wedding dress (under $1000) and have an experienced seamstress hack off the bodice and finish off the skirt with a waistband and zipper. Plus then that gives you a MUCH wider selection of skirt styles to choose from. Like here's a few possibilities...
http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_Satin-Beaded-Halter-with-Tulle-Skirt-and-no-Train-6280_Bridal-Gowns-Features-All-Gowns - tulle skirt $350
http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_Satin-Beaded-Neckline-and-Beaded-Tulle-Skirt-NT8017_Bridal-Gowns-Features-All-Gowns - tulle skirt with curly edge $450
