Maternity bridesmaids dresses - for comfort and beauty.
You started planning your wedding a year ago. You informed all of your friends who you wanted as bridesmaids to mark the date on the calendars. Then 6 months before the wedding you get the news: one of your bridesmaids is pregnant.
Not to worry. There are several options for maternity bridesmaid dresses. First of all, you could buy the dress fabric and have the dress made at a maternity store or by a tailor. This is probably the most expensive route. Another option would be to let the bridesmaid needing the maternity bridesmaid dress select her own dress in the same color as the other dresses of the bridal party. In our research on the Internet we found one site, www.davidsbridal.com, that sold maternity bridesmaids dresses specifically, but the selection of styles was very limited.
Other options for maternity bridesmaids dresses include selecting a plus size dress. Try a “Princess” silhouette. These come in all sizes and can accommodate the bulging tummy. And finally, choosing a simple pattern and having the dresses handmade may be your best solution. A couple of details to think about – be careful about shoe choice. It’s difficult to walk in high heels when you are carrying an eight-pound watermelon in your stomach. And strapless dresses are not good when you are carrying extra weight in your breasts.
In the final analysis: don’t worry if your pregnant bridesmaid’s dress looks a little different from the others. Make sure that she is comfortable and can enjoy being a part of your special day.
