Dear Lord no! People would have thought MrMini was marrying a boy!
I didn't have a strapless dress so wore a normal bra- all my friends that have had the strapless type dresses didn't need one as they were corseted in.
I did, I would have been mega uncomfortable in a bra I think. I had an internal corset too.
My dress was strapless though and I used tit tape in the evening. I really wish I'd remembered to use it in the day too. The tape didn't hold my boobs up exactly, just held the dress to my boobs so there was less cleavage on show. I got it from La Senza and it was fantastic, really strong but came off easily at night and didn't hurt (was worried it'd feel like ripping off a plaster! but was fine).
No, although I probably could have done. It just didn't feel right without. I had a nice set from Debenhams (I think they were CK but I'm not totally sure), but I will admit that when I took the bra off I had blisters round the sides of my chest from where my dress had been rubbing it.
No, but the dress shop did take my strapless bra off me at the secoind to last fitting so they could sew it into my dress for me, so as it didn't ride up. I wore an M&S one that I loved so much Ive bought it 4 more in all available colours. I'm wearing one now! (They have detatchable straps!)
I had cups sewn into my dress. A bra was not an option as it would have shown through the sheer back of my dress. No bra was not an option as my dress didn't have any corsetting or boning and I *am* 35!
I tried one with my dress but as it has a corset it was uncomfortable and you could see it at the sides. I don't want to be fiddling all day hiding it so am going braless. I am only a D cup though with implants so they stand up anyway.

I am a G cup and my dress had a sweetheart neck line. My boobs didnt hang out so JoJo i disagree with you. So there!
Yes, and it was the most comfortable option as I had an internal corset. Was great until the evening when I popped out (I'm an e) during some drunken energetic dancing - but I think that would have happened even if I was wearing a strapless bra
Thanks for all the comments so far. In relation to the questions asked, I'm a 32D, have a straight neckline on my dress which is quite high, and the internal corset fastens with lots of little clips like a basque does, as opposed to being lace up.
Not much use to you but I didn't wear one because my bodice was a steel boned corset - there wouldn't have been room in there for a bra as well (there was barely room for me and my dinner, mum had to let out my laces a bit before the evening do!?) I think it depends how comfy you'd be going without - in the absence of of some serious scaffolding there's no way I'd consider going without but that's down to my own hang ups about how my boobs sit. I think most people my size (38C, probably a 38D at the time of the wedding) would consider it.
Yes - my dress was pretty well structured and I had cups sewn in for comfort. If you go down this route make sure you move lots at your fittings to ensure they're in the right place. Jump around, sit down, stand up, give your chums a hug - all sorts to mimic the movements of the day.
I wear a 34E bra, however, in strapless i am a 32dd - I wore strapless bra simple because i didnt want to run the risk of my boobies either falling out, or drooping as the day went on. The bra i bought was from Leia but i cant remeber the make. It was amazing. I could put it on and jump around and nothing would move, and it was beautiful too.
I probably didnt need one, but I felt better in it. Oh and H loved it too ?
My dress didn't have a built in corset so I couldn't really go bra-less. I bought the strapless Wonderbra (the one with the 'hands' inside the cup) and it was brilliant, if slightly terrifying! Not the most comfortable piece of underwear I've ever worn, but it didn't budge all day and my boobs looked pretty good.
Well, my dress was fitted to me so there wasn't a whole load of space spare. When I leant forward, it didn't gape. The cups added shape, I think. I didn't fall out of the bottom of them, if that's what you mean?
Probs no help as I only have little boobs but I don't think I'll be wearing a bra with my dress as it has an internal corset... I do like the idea of being able to have beautiful matching underwear for H2B to see when I take my dress of though ?
I take my bra off at any opportunity though as I find them really uncomfortable and as I am small chested they don't really need supporting ☹️
