Not even close. That it is a widespread thing is fifty years old or less and there is no real mekor for it. I know that the Chofetz Chaim's daughters saw their husbands less that a week before.

Seems like Gemorah Yevamos :לז?

והאמר רבא תבעוה לינשא ונתפייסה צריכה לישב שבעה נקיים

רש״י: שבעה נקיים: שמא מחמת חימוד פרסה נדה בשעה שנתפייסה

I know its not exactly the same but the concept of חימוד causing נדה is there.

the problem is only when they didn't know beforehand not when they know for a year that they will be getting married

I agree there is a difference, just saying it could be thats the Mekor? My minhag was not to be noheig so I never looked into it.

Is the idea of the Kala not seeing the Chosson for 7 days before the wedding not a universal one?
no
I was at a Syrian wedding.  The Choson and Kallah sat together before the chupa with their parents and Rabbi to do the usual kabolas ponim paperwork.
My Iranian friend worked on seating cards with her chosson in person on the day before their wedding.
My favorite cause: cssy.org

No idea about a makor, but it is a fantastic minhag IMHO. Wedding prep can be extremely stressful for some, and not being able to let that stress out on your chosson/kallah is a wonderful thing. Pre-wedding fights between bride and groom are a common trope in comedies and whatnot.

+10000! Not to mention the extra joy it brings you, seeing them for the first time in a week, at the badeken.

Yea I was wondering the same. The actual tweet is fine, it's just the alerts.

Is there some type of digital signature I can get so individuals know they are dealing with the Real McCoy?
