Wedding attire- preggo style! HELP!

Hi ladies, our friends wedding is creeping closer and closer and I have NOTHING to wear

Someone on here posted a website where you can rent a maternity evening dress... but I was thinking and I think it would be better if I find a non-maternity dress that I can pull off (ex. empire waist, trapeze style dress) that way I can reuse it after pregnancy.

Have you ladies attended any weddings preggo? Anyone wear a non-maternity dress? Please help me find something... im desperate! (pics would be great)

P.S. I'll be 25 weeks.

Thank you SOOO much!!

I have been to my fair share of weddings preggo (3 kids) and I've always worn non-maternity gowns/dresses.

Don't stress.. you can get a nice dress and jazz it up with accessories.. you'll look great!

Re: Wedding attire- preggo style! HELP!

i went to a fundraiser at 24 weeks and a wedding at 33 weeks and wore non-maternity both times. I just went with a dress with give!

I wore an empire waist black dress to the fundraiser, and a long black dress with stretch to the wedding. In fact, I lent the long one to a preggo friend and she loved it, too!

I went to a wedding when I was about 30 weeks pregnant. I just wore a non-maternity dress with an empire waist. I bought it at Kohls on the day of the wedding Chat Icon Chat Icon
