Help with a bra for my wedding in 2 weeks plus hair ideas please

Firstly I'm 23 weeks pregnant :o getting married in 2 weeks. I'm wearing this dress and have got shoes, bag etc sorted. What I need (and cannot seem to find) is a bra that will be suitable for that dress.

I'm a size 8 but 32F bra (bravissmo sized 34F as they gave me room to grow but rigby and peller said 32F for a one off). I need something low (the bra adjuster wasn't bringing the bra low enough) and the front is also low and a little wide, the back is wide too.

I thought of the stick on ones but nothing in my size. What can I do?

Also, any hair tips? I plan on doing it myself, hair is past shoulder length, dark and I've bought a clip with a flower on that's the same colour as the dress. I thought about a few curls and have tongs but have never used them! I think they're tongs anyway.

Doing my own make up too but I'll try that out beforehand, what colour eye shadow should I use with green eyes? Or none? Thanks.

no advice but that dress is STUNNING. it will look amazing with dark hair and pale flower. have you got some friends who might help with hair and make up? have you got time for an evening with a couple of bottles of wine, couple of stylish friends and your curling tongs...? I defintely think, with the dress, you want the hair loose-ish and natural looking, possibly loosely pinned up with some soft curls round your face - but if that's too hard just stick with normal. make-up I'd also keep quite natural. you'll be glowing anyway. have a lovely day.

I wore something like this for mine, any good?

doh, sorry didn't check the back of your dress Blush

Thanks. I was thinking more natural, nothing over the top.

Makes me sound sad but I don't have that many close friends here tbh, I'm close to a few women now finally but it's took me a long time and not really comfortable putting on people, iyswim.

I'll definitely try out the tongs though and see what I can manage. What with all the stress we've all had lately the wedding will be a welcome event for us all to relax and enjoy some good company.
