I need a dress to wear. It is going to be super posh do, groomsmen in top hats and tails etc.
Did have a top and skirt combo to wear but just tried it on and it is too big and not dressy enough really.
I am a size 8/10 will need to do 2 feeds so easy access not necessary but would prefer not to get completely undressed to feed.
Is it possible????

Yes, I breastfed in my wedding dress!
Admittedly it was not quite what I had in mind but it was a little like this this witha deep V and one side crossed over the other slightly.
And a large square silk scarf type thing.

that is a lovely dress.
i guess my dilema is i don't want to feel underdressed and self concious so am tending to right off anything to flowing etc.
feel i should wear something quite tailored and cos we are there all day can't where something which is too evening unless i got a jacket asuppose.
Anyone else any ideas.

How about a strapless dress - but one that's not too structured/boned. Plus jacket and/or silky pashmina/scarf. It's fairly easy to pull the dress down and cover up from above, if you're size 8/10 ish. I've managed this before...

interesting smeraldina might hit the changing rooms and see what is possible.
