Help me find a registry office wedding dress?

Planning to have a tiny informal registry office wedding later on in the year (covid allowing), then a bigger 'wedding' in 2022 or 2023.

I have no idea what to wear. Am actually tempted by a jumpsuit, possibly. I do want to have a bouquet as I will be giving this to my poorly grandmother. Help!

If you find something that fits well but isn't bridal enough, you could add one of these!

Will defo need a bra of some sort - strapless and backless are going to be really difficult! My boobs are certainly not perky post baby

Have you looked at the whistles wedding options? Lots of very simple bridal choices that are really lovely

HotCupOfNo · 24/01/2021 14:15

@waltzingparrot That first one is right up my street, I love it

Like you, DD had a tiny (10 guests) registry office wedding in October and wanted to save her actual wedding dress for the reception, hopefully sometime this summer!
She wore this dress www.asos.com/asos-edition/asos-edition-embellished-cami-midi-dress/prd/14788662 (actually fitted her better than the model in the pictures) and wore a leather biker jacket over it and it looked lovely.

HotCupOfNo · 24/01/2021 14:17

@Trisolaris I like this one, I'm not sure what bra I would be able to wear with it though

They do different ones, some not so long etc. They aren't that expensive either, add that to a regular ivory dress and you've got yourself a banging wedding dress at a reasonable price.

I think I'd go all out on a registry 'do. Nothing is too much where Brides are concerned.

HotCupOfNo · 24/01/2021 14:19

@RustyBear This is stunning, but I'd never get away with it!

@HotCupOfNo I love that tiered whistles dress (tiered Grin fits with the theme!)

My SIL found her wedding dress here

In these times I don't think any individual dress is too much for a small wedding.
Pick a dress you love and feel fabulous in.

Don't worry about it fitting "normal rules" we are so far from normal times.

Jumpsuit , sorry teensy bit over budget..

Do you like retro-style clothes? Vivian of Holloway have some lovely retro wedding dresses www.vivienofholloway.com/women-c70/wedding-c181

Or if you wanted something you could wear again they do the “Grace” dress and the 50s halter neck in a variety of colours.

Fressia123 · 24/01/2021 16:35

This is the one I bought :)

I got married in a nhs dress that I got secondhand brand new with tags from eBay. It was called Sofia and they did a long and knee length ivory one and mint and a navy in just knee length. There are a few still around on eBay that are brand new and a bargain
