Maternity wedding guest dress ideas that work across three months

I have two family weddings and a friend wedding this Summer/Autumn (I will be 24, 29, and 34 weeks pregnant at them all). I would love to find a dress which will accommodate the stretch so i can wear it to all three. I am a true summer so I usually wear dusky pinks/navy colours and I like classic styles. The problem is a lot of maternity dresses look like toilet roll holders.

My sister had this issue some years ago and went down the hiring route, which got her lovely outfits including hats and bags.

I wouldn't buy a maternity dress, I'd find something with an elasticated waistband and size up if needed! Totally agree with you on maternity dresses!

It depends if you are fussy about materials I suppose, but I think AX Paris (despite the awful looking models on the website, as in they look edited) and Blue Vanilla offer some nice wedding options to incorporate a growing bump. They're reasonably priced too, so you can save a bit of money.
