Hello all WPers, old married here dipping my toe back into the planning forums. I never had BMs at my wedding so need to ask a few questions.
I'm due to be BM at end of July, which is also 2 weeks before my second baby is due. Hmm. Hopefully it won't be early! Luckily my friend has told me I don't need to match the other bridesmaid, which would look ridiculous anyway as she is size 0 and titchy, whereas I am a 16 and 6ft tall plus will look huger than ever obviously. Anyway I can choose whatever floor length dress I want as long as it matches his suit or shirt, he and his partner haven't decided yet on their colours and won't be picking until Easter.
I know my dress will probably take longer than their suits, but haven't got time to get into bridal shops just yet so have been looking just online, but info is limited. I can see on Dessy they do some maternity styles with 'extra length' available but does anyone know how much longer that generally is? I remember when ordering my wedding dress some brands said 'extra length' but it was literally 1 or 2 inches which was not enough.
Also how much time do BM dresses take to order in?
Finally my friend has told me my budget is £150 - can I get a decent dress complete with alterations for that do you reckon?
TIA
