I wouldn't worry about it too much!! The key word is 'planning.'
Lol, I just posted a dress that I ordered for a friend's wedding for sale because of this issue. When I ordered the dress I was planning on losing weight. I actually did lose 60 pounds and then had to order another dress because they couldn't take it in that much for me. I did go down like 5 sizes though and it was a mermaid style dress.
Were you able to order another dress in enough time? I am also worried that we wont have enough time to order another dress if that happens.
I ordered the original dress a year before her wedding. They came in about 6 months before her wedding and at that point I had lost all the weight. I ordered another dress immediately and it came in 1 1/2 before the wedding. Honestly, if your friend is the type that really does diet when she says she is going to and loses weight she might want to order it a size or two down. Or ask the place you are ordering the dress from. They will be able to help you too! When I ordered that dress they told me how many sizes down they could tailor the dress, I just wasn't expecting to get all the weight off that quickly so I got screwed.
There's no need to order a dress a year in advance!! My wedding is in May and my BMs haven't all ordered their dresses yet! They have until December. I think it's best to wait it out a bit!!
I would suggest that she just get sized and ask them to call her when the dress comes in, before you even start fitting. Some places get them in on time that they can return the order and get a new dress quickly with the sizes. I planned on loosing weight for some weddings and it just never happened. IF she wanted she could ask them to order 1 size smaller then she was. A little motivation but my SIL did that and she ended up gaining weight and was off by 2 dress sizes.
