I am 2 mos. pregnant. I will be im my friend's wedding in 4 1/2 mos. I'm getting my dress on Friday & wondering if anyone has been in this situation. I don't want a maternity dress in case I miscarry. I'm still early. Should I get my dress a size or two bigger? I was all belly when I was pregnant with my son. Huge belly that is.....don't know what to do

A popular style that looks good on everyone is a high (empire) waist just under the bustline and the skirt flows from there, maybe with a layer of sheer material on top of the skirt. Just wait to have it hemmed because the length will shrink up as your belly grows. Maybe you could get the same colour of dress in a different style than the other bridesmaids. Depending on the style, you don't want to get the dress too big or it may throw off the whole design and also cost a fortune in alterations.

Don't fret. The consultants at the bridal salon will know what is best for you to do. Most salons are quite familiar with this situation. Usually, attendants at this stage do purchase dresses specifically designed for maternity (not a larger size), but discuss all your concerns with the salon before making a final decision. Also you and the bride-to-be should also be prepared to consider selecting a different style (if needed) which would be more flattering and easier for alterations.

If you're worried about the pregnancy, you could always wait until later to get your dress. Wait until you're over 12 weeks then go shopping. Also shop for something with a higher waist. Ask the bridal store as well, they will know how to best handle this & what kind of dress could work best for you.

If you were previously large with your last pregnancy then most likely you will be with this one as well. You may want to opt for a maternity style otehrwise it wont fit right and there may not be time to alter it.
Its easier to take a dress in then to take it out, bigger is better!

The bridesmaids do no longer ought to positioned on a similar outfits anymore. they do no longer even must be a similar shade! in simple terms verify that each and all of the outfits look ok mutually. check out David's Bridal. they have plus sizes.

Get a dress when it is closer to the wedding and then you can decide how big your getting and how fast it it happening. When men get sized for a tux it is usaullay they go for a fitting a month before. don't get a dress too early unless you can get it alterations done to it.

don't get a big size or else it will be *** everywhere. uless you plan on gaining weight get your normal size and see if alterations can be made.
Is it possible to wait on the dress? If so, then wait as long as you can. if it's like everybody has to select thier dress by next week thing then good luck!!!!!
