Dress for a wedding when 12 weeks pregnant (am 9 weeks now and showing already!)

[GColdtimer]

I thought I would be able to wear a dress I already have but everything I own is too tight. I have put on half a stone already (on my bum and thighs I think!) with this pregnancy and have got a bump already.

Added complication is that I am short - 5ft - normally size 10 at the top and 12 at the bottom. I have dark hair and can carry off quite bold colours.

Should I just get a maternity dress? the wedding is in 3 weeks.

Any advice before I resign myself to going in my jeans ?

The dress style that 'falls' from just under the boobs is an Empire waist dress and I wore one to a do when I was about four months. Best thing is the rest of you where all the weight is packing on gets hidden. They come in all sorts of lengths. Regular, not maternity sometimes means less expensive too, and nicer colour choices.
The one you got sounds fab especially with the shoes. Just 25 did you say???
