Maternity wedding guest dresses

Hoping someone can suggest somewhere I’ve not already looked for a dress to wear to a wedding in a couple of weeks time. I’ll be around 34 weeks but I’m a size 8 and I don’t have a huge bump so the wrap styles and floaty options tend to be quite unflattering and just make me look bigger rather than necessarily pregnant. I’ve tried my usual options without success (silkfred, asos, new look, next, even seraphine though I don’t want to spend a fortune when I’m probably only going to wear it once). Any other ideas?

I had this issue recently, I'm a few weeks behind you pregnancy wise but also a size 8. I found several dresses in Apricot that worked well - not maternity but they're floaty/stretchy enough that they accommodated my bump nicely.

Although I also got a lovely Dorothy Perkins maternity dress from Vinted which I've ended up going for, it fits nicely and isn't oversized or frumpy like a lot of maternity dresses seem to be.

Happy Mama have some nice dresses at great prices. Many are good for nursing once baby has been born too x
