HELP! What do I wear to my wedding on Friday?

[Ireallywantsomechips]

Please help!

I’m getting married on Friday, I didn’t get a proper wedding dress but the dress I had has a hole in! Not sure how it happened 😫 I swear it wasn’t there when I tried it on but it must have been. It’s not fixable and not the end of the world I suppose!

I have dresses I can wear but they either look a bit mutton esque or like I’m going on a night out.

Thankfully I live near a lot of cities so I’m not short on places to go but I am on a high street budget!

I’m blonde with a fairish skin tone, 5”10 and a size 18 so places like H&M, Zara & Mango are a no go.

What style should I go for? What colour? What fabrics? I’m so clueless at dressing! I’ve just had a baby and I live in loungewear or jeans and a T-shirt 🙈

Bravissimo? If you look online then call them they should be able to get it to you next day - much more personal service than the big stores (they got me a suit jacket on before 9am next day delivery when I had an interview suit fail!)

As a hugely pregnant size 18 I got married in a Ghost dress. Choose one of the stretchy ones and you can re-wear it for posh occasions (as I have done on multiple occasions)

Congratulations on your wedding.

How about a day trip to London? You can book at slot at these for a fitting.

Schedule first a fitting at to make sure you have great underpinnings

Second slot with these lovely people

Warn the fitter at R&P that you are getting married , about the get a frock. I'm sure they would fit you in after the dress fitting if you need anything special

Then you just need neutral shoes and hold ups. Sounds like a lovely pre wedding day out to me. If that doesn't work, PP's suggestion of a fitting at John Lewis or Selfridges would work too. Enjoy.

Hardly a high st budget 🙄

I’ve bought a load from simply be and ASOS to arrive tomorrow. Had a look at my local outlet but nothing much in my size! Cursing no longer being a 14!

I will pop to John Lewis & Monsoon on Thursday if I have no luck! The Ghost ones are beautiful! But I really love the ASOS dresses! Didn’t know they did bridal! I’ve gone for some wedding & some bridesmaid!

I’m quite excited now! Thank you for coming to my panicked rescue!

Op will you share your dress after your wedding? Be lovey to see what you went with
