Anyone fancy helping me find an emergency wedding dress?

Long story short... was due to be getting married in mid-May. It clearly wasn't going to happen, but venue wouldn't cancel until Monday, and are now completely closed. Dress is stuck, unaltered, in the dress shop... and the registry office today have called to say that we may be able to go ahead in the registry office on our date instead. They can't guarantee, but they're now willing to book it in...

So, I might need something to wear! If we can't do it in mid-May but can get on our honeymoon later on, we'll get married on a beach, so ideally something I could wear then too. It'll have to be from online, and ideally not to be too expensive. I'm trying to lose weight but it all being cancelled has not helped and I've stress-eaten a bit, so I'm not counting on too much... so I've got okay legs and boobs; but a bit too much around the middle. Anything that clings too much to my stomach will look awful. I'm a 12/14 at the moment; I will try to be a 10/12.

This is my favourite thing that I've found so far, but I'm not sure if it'll look okay on anyone a bit bigger... and I'm not sure which length to go for. I'm 5 foot 3. I've got bright pink shoes currently but could buy more... I'll try and get a supermarket bouquet but I'm not sure that I'll have flowers.

We'll be alone except for the registrar and someone to take photos from 2m away, so I'd like something that looks okay as people will want photos...

Thank you!

Have a look at Monsoon, Lipsy, Chichi London for wedding dresses. ASOS also do a selection I think!
