Cups sewn into dress..yay or nay?

I *hate* when there is a big gap at the top of a strapless dress..which is better..to have cups sewn in or to wear an undergarment of some sort? My dress is slightly princess cut and my boobs are not huge or anything. Going for a fitting next month so trying to figure this out!
Also I want to be comfortable!

To me comfort = cups, not undergarment.

Good question. I had the cups sewn in for other occasions and they were comfortable. I am kind of torn for my wedding dress too.

If I wasn't so busty, I would get cups but I have no choice but I have to were a undergarment.

I had cups sewn into mine because of the back of my dress. Here are pics from my first fitting (mind you I have no boobs to begin with which is why you see major pinning under my bust line):

I vote for cups if you want comfort-I'm getting cups sewn in too

hmm..they look really natural, one of the things I was concerned about. Goldi, thanks for posting those pics!
The lady at Burton's said I don't have to decide right away (she was telling me what to bring to my first fitting) b/c I'm small so she's not concerned!

So I guess the whole gaping at the top thing is a matter of fit not necessarily your undergarments?
I agree cups seem like they would be more comfortable than some of the get-ups I've seen!

My dress is also quite thin. There really is no undergarment that would not show through. Using cups was the best way to avoid lines.

my dress is being made for me and im having them sew in cups- IMHO its the best way to go

I'm on the fence about this too....they told me to bring a bra, but they can also let me try it with the cups pinned in so I can see how it is
