Pregnant and wedding in 3 months! Dress help please

Hi guys

I'm 14 weeks pregnant, which I'm absolutely stoked about. We are eloping for our wedding to Florida, and will be just the 2 of us and a set of parents.
I'd love a proper bridal dress with lots of tulle. I find all the maternity dresses to just be maxi dresses with empire lines. I really don't want this, but I'm clueless as to what to go for size wise. Do I go 2 sizes up? Has anyone else had this experience of being nearly 7 months pregnant and marrying in a non maternity gown? Any advise?! I feel so stuck.
Thanks so much everyone x

At this stage, you're going to have to go for either a mail order/high street dress or a second hand/sample sale one. Your best bet is probably going to be to contact a local supplier that either has a big sample sale on or that specialises in second hand - that way, you can get to try on a number of different styles, plus they should also know what will work for your baby bump.
I know some stores have fake bumps that you can strap on so that you can see what a dress will look like when you are x months pregnant, so you could ask.
If you're not happy with empire line, then you probably need to look at corset style so that it doesn't matter if you expand a bit more than expected - you don't want to get anything that needs to fit exactly!
