Modest Maternity Wedding Dresses
Today, more bridal wear designers and clothing manufacturers focus on providing pregnant brides with wonderful selections of gorgeous maternity wedding dresses. Gone are the days of generic-looking and loose wedding dress mumus; they have been replaced by chic and fashionable maternity wedding garments. You no longer have to compromise your dream wedding dress style simply because you're expecting.
Most maternity wedding dresses use stretch fabrics designed to accommodate your ever-changing body. A number of maternity wedding dresses have empire waistlines with softly flowing fabric designed to fit loosely around the midsection to fit your growing belly. There are also some maternity wedding dresses made from stretchy materials like spandex, but if you're looking for something a little more elegant, you may opt for silk, satin or stretchy lace maternity wedding dresses.
Finding the Perfect Maternity Wedding Dress
The following are some tips designed to help you find the perfect maternity wedding dress.
Tip 1: As much as possible, try to purchase your maternity wedding dress close to your actual wedding date.
If you purchase your maternity wedding dress months ahead of your actual wedding, your body is still going to experience numerous changes. Aside from a swelling belly, you may add on some extra pounds in other places. To avoid having to spend a lot in alterations, buy your dress just a month or two before you actually tie the knot.
Tip 2: If you're purchasing your gown ahead of time, try to estimate how far along you'll be by the day of your wedding to help you find the right dress size.
When picking out your maternity wedding dress, finding the right dress size is a must! To make sure you're getting the right dress size, base your choice on your pre-pregnancy size. In most cases your normal dress size is just the same as your maternity dress size, except you have fabric allowance in the belly region.
Tip 3:
If you're in between sizes, always go for the bigger size
Let's be honest, until you actually give birth, you're just going to keep getting bigger, that's why it's crucial that you find a maternity wedding dress that accommodates your growing size.
Tip 4: Keep a handy seamstress available for last minute alterations.
While it's always safer to go for a size bigger when picking out your maternity wedding dress, it's equally important that your dress fits you well on your actual wedding day. A seamstress or a dressmaker can help you make sure your gown is a perfect fit.
Tip 5: Know where to look.
Maternity wedding dresses are a little harder to find compared to beach wedding dresses, formal and informal wedding gowns. You may not be able to find an excellent maternity dress collection at your nearest bridal boutique.
