Plus Size Brides

Brides come in many different shapes and sizes and we honor all of them. Plus size brides may sometime have difficulties finding the perfect dress, the dress that makes you feel that glow everyone talks about. Don’t despair, here are a few tips to make it easier for you.

Tailored bodices and full skirts. Your skirts can make a big difference in making you look the way you want to. A-line dress looks great, it also gives that tailored look so does dresses with organza lace.

Plus size brides look their best when your gown is couture, it helps to give the look you want. Some brides struggle to make a particular dress fit and in the end it’s not worth it. Try not to stress out yourself trying to find a dress that fits well. Take time to start early, at least 6-9 months prior to your wedding date. This is a time consuming process and should never be rushed. Do research find out which designers have dresses in your size (also note that most wedding gowns are generally sized smaller than regular clothing) it’s a pleasure to take this journey. The final result will be worth it. 

It is always fitting to get measured so you will have tailored gown let me also suggest to have your bust measured for the right size bra.

It’s very important also to get a spanks undergarment, it holds very nicely and contours your shape.

Choose a dress with straps or sleeves Strapless gowns may be trendy, but most plus-size brides should beware of this style, which tends to accentuate and widen shoulders and arms. When selecting sleeves or straps, make sure the material doesn't squeeze or bind your arms, shoulder or back. Avoid sleeves that start puffy and end smooth or fitted, as they have tendency to make arms look bigger. Instead, choose short capped or lacy sleeves.

Don’t be bullied. This is your wedding, your dress and, regardless of your size, you should never have to settle. Salesclerks may try to convince you to select a gown that's less than flattering because it fits and they have it in stock, but you should hold out until you find something you really want. Take a few friends with you to get some honest feedback and opinions.
