It is not a position anyone wants to find themselves in, but if it happens you will need to make previsions for it. What am I talking about? Finding out that you are pregnant before your wedding day. It seems as if this is happening more and more today, so bridal planners are taking this into consideration when making some of their wedding dresses. In fact about 20% of brides are expectant mothers on the day of their weddings. The bridal experts are making dresses these days that can be more easily altered than ever before. They have the bride in mind and the future children of the bride as well.
You should look for wedding dresses that will accommodate your baby bump in a fashionable way. Make sure the dress you choose will be comfortable for you as well. Since you are already going to be exhausted due to your pregnancy, you should find a dress that is going to be most comfortable to counteract that fact a bit. If you are not very far along you may be able to get away with wearing a traditional wedding dress and not even have to have it altered. If however, you are towards the end of your pregnancy you are going to have to make a few provisions and modifications to your wedding dress. Remember that a wedding dress is easier to take in than it is to have it let out. Just keep that in mind when you are shopping for your gown.
You should also look for a gown that is going to be a good fit for the time of year you plan to wed. If you are getting married in the summer for example you will not want to have a dress that is too warm, especially if you are pregnant. No one wants to have a bride pass out, and if you are pregnant you will want to remain up right for sure!
Also keep in mind whether your wedding is going to be formal or informal. If you are interested in being as comfortable as possible as a pregnant bride you may want to go with an informal wedding and an informal dress. This will help to alleviate a lot of the hassle associated with finding the right dress. A long flowing gown that is not form fitting may be best for you if you are far along in your pregnancy. Just be practical. You shouldn’t try to do the wedding until after the birth if you want a particular dress that is not going to fit you while you are pregnant. Weigh the pros and cons of doing it both ways and you will soon come to the best decision for you and your baby.
