maternity wedding dress help needed!!

jennlovesmurf

I'm a modern / indie type girl who will be hopefully having a small shotgun wedding while 4 - 5 months pregnant    The few maternity dresses I've seen online are hideous.  Any ideas for full length gowns that can handle my bump?

Here are a few sites I found:

Look for dresses with an empire waist.

at 4-5 months pregnant, you will probably just be beginning to show. you could just look at regular dresses in a larger size, or as the previous poster suggested, an empire waist.

I agree that an empire waist could look really great. If you're looking for something casual or simple and sleek, I'm a big fan of J. Crew's wedding gowns, but really there are tons of options out there.

Something like this will work.

You don't HAVE to have a dress that is labeled as "maternity"... Just look for a dress that is fairly flowy (think chiffon, ruffles, lace, or something with texture) and DEFINITELY look into an empire waist. With the waistline right under your bustline and a flowy material, people wont notice if there is a bump under it. Try something like this:  http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_Beaded-Tank-Soft-Chiffon-A-Line-Gown-WG3079_Bridal-Gowns-Features-All-Gowns

There are a lot of beautiful gowns out there, you just might not be able to get one that is fitted too tightly to your midsection.

Good luck to you!

Actually my friend had the same issue....she ended up ordering Paloma Blanca 4004, its empire and has TONS of room in the front so it can totally be a maternity dress! good luck!
