Hello I need suggestions on where I can find a low cut strapless bra to wear underneath my wedding dress. It needs to give me support as I have a bigger chest. My dress is halter, with low cuts in the front and back. I need to have support and comfort throughout the entire night. I dont want to be pulling on my dress/bra all night. I have tried David's Bridal, what they have doesn't fit me and some local department stores. If anyone can suggest a local store with a big selection or a specific bra that would be great! Also I am not having cups sewn in, I want the support of a bra. Thanks so much ladies!

    Fredericks of Hollywood and Victoria's Secret have specialty brans on their websites.  FOH is expecially good at having a variety of sizes available.

    There is a shop in Penn Hills called Lady Godiva. They have a variety of strapless bras and TONS of sizes. I am also larger chested and will have to go there to get a bra for my wedding dress. I go here for strapless/long line bras. Oddly,  they also sell some clothing as well as "sex shop" kind of stuff, but any awkwardness is worth it to get a well fitting bra.

    I HATE Victoria's Secret, especially for larger sizes. I found that I don't get the support from their bras that I do from others. That said, I really like Lady Godiva. Also try Soma in Ross Park Mall. I just bought a strapless bra there and it's so well made. The cups hold their shape and it's really supportive.

    FYI ladies I went to Lady Godiva and had the worst experience of my life. They sales lady was rude to me from the moment I walked into the door. I asked to get measured and she said that she would not measure me because measuring doesn't work and she insisted that I try the bras on. So she had me try two bras on...I had no idea what size they were as she didn't tell me, she only asked me what size I was currently wearing. When we found one that fit she said "now put your dress on" I said I can tell you right now this bra will not work with my dress....it was too high cut. She said oh well then I am sorry that is all we sell. The store is pretty big how can that be all they sell??? She then told my mother that in order to get the support I needed, I should buy a bathing suit top and have it sewn into my wedding dress. I was horrified that she even suggested that. A bathing suit top will not give me the support I am looking for on my wedding day. What a disaster.....I would not recommend Lady Godiva to anyone and I personally will never go there again....EVER. This sales lady turned me away. Any other thoughts on where to go would be great! Thanks ladies.
