go to the bathroom once your gown was on? I am very worried about this - I drink a lot (especially when hot) and have the bladder capacity of a pea!

I'm not a past bride, but I am a past MOH that went to the bathroom with the bride every time to hold her dress up It was crazy

Yup...that is one thing that the bridesmaid will have to help with! I am not a past bride, but I am a past BM and I had to help my friend go potty!! It took 3 of us to hold up her gown so she could pee!

I too have the capacity of a pea. I wore garter stockings and had the girls hold my dress.

OK, this is what I was thinking and it might be a bit easier...
what about sitting facing the wall instead of trying to turn around in the stall, just walk straight in and lift up from the front? Sort of straddle it?
Am I making sense, cuz I am laughing at myself right now!!

I was thinking about this very same thought the other day and I was like 'HEY! I'm just going to walk straight into the stall, lift up and straddle!!'

I had my two bridal attendants at JT help me. We went into the handicapped bathroom and they held up my dress and I peed. My MOH offered to help, but I knew the bridal attendants were pros. They took me right before the ceremony and one other time during the reception.

Some great ideas! I would have never thought of going forwards towards the wall.

Re: All you past Brides...How did you......
My dress was only one layer of silk and I wore nothing but hose underneath. I picked up the dress around my waist and went as usual. Oh and I only had to go once!
what I am really afraid of is not being able to pee with all of those people helping me!! seriously, i am majorily pee shy!!!!

As a past bride and also someone who has been in several bp its not as bad as you think. Luckly I only had to use the bathroom once at my wedding. My MOH helped me, she just held up my dress and looked the other way. I'm like you and drink alot and usually have to go alot too. That day using the bathroom was the last thing on my mind.

I found it easier just to step out of my dress-then I could go without everyone else around me, watching, hearing, etc. My BMs helped me out and then back in.

I had 3 of my girls hold it up over my head
ETA: I had a corset back dress, so there was no getting out of it unless I wanted it to be a 1/3 hour process.
