Quickie wedding or wait until after the baby?

[LittlePebble]

My Fiancee and I were planning to get married in October/ November this year. After coming off the pill in October (my sister was having trouble conceiving and we were told it could take up to a year to get the pill out of my system) I am now 7+3 and DF and I cannot decide what to do.

the facts:
I already have a beautiful dress (size 12 and fitted)
We both want to get married in a church
We cannot get married over the summer (busy season for our business)

Do we opt for a small wedding with only family? Do I sell the dress? Do I wait until the baby is born and try and slim into it? How much of a difference does it make being Mrs XXX when you are having the baby?
I can't seem to make my mind up as have pg hormones raging...Help!

Wow thank you everyone

We've decided to meet the vicar and see when he can fit us in - I think if he can in May then we might squeeze me into the dress if we find a nice dressmaker with a magic needle but if not then I'll have to sell it and find another one (more dress shopping )

Reading through all your posts has really helped and the one thing I want at our wedding is for the day to be about the two of us.

Thank you again - going to google maternity wedding dresses now! xx

oh good decision Littlepebble! I think your reason is a very good one :-)
It would honestly be a right old faff with baby in tow, and tbh once baby comes you will be so excited about the baby that a wedding might not seem so important. This way you get to concentrate on one thing at a time and enjoy both independently.

congratulations!

I agree, good decision!
If you can't find a dressmaker easily, try asking at your local dry-cleaners re. seamstress, they often have a contact for one because of clothes needing repair or re-fitting.

Also, depending on where you bought the dress from, you might be able to return it and get a size bigger (unless it was custom made of course) - always worth a phone call!

Good luck with getting your date in May :)
