One of my bridesmaids is hoping to get pregnant in April, so she'll be about 5 months pregnant in September for my wedding. This will be her second pregnancy, and for her first, she barely looked pregnant - even at her baby shower! Who knows how she'll pop this time around.
I'm not concerned about the fact that she'll be pregnant, but I am concerned about the BM dress choice I've made. I've decided on Bill Levkoff, Euro Satin, tea length...and letting each girl pick the dress they like in Euro Navy.
The to-be-prego BM seemed to think something with a sheer overlay would be flattering - but that would look too different from the satin that I like, and there aren't enough options in that style for each girl to have something different - which I really want.
Is it bad to put a prego BM in a satin dress? I think any empire waist a-line will work well...is that right?
I want her to be comfortable, that's why I'm letting each girl pick a diff dress - but I also want some uniformity so it doesn't look silly.
If you have any pix of prego BM - slight pop - I'd appreciate.
My fiance's sister is going to be 8 months pregnant for my wedding. I had to change the original bridesmaid dress I liked because it would not flatter a pregnant woman. I had to find her a maternity dress that would match the rest of the girls. I came up with this dress that she loved and would look adorable in. The other girls dresses almost match the style but are non-maternity. I recommend a dress that is empire waist and A-line for a pregnant bridesmaid. I chose a chiffon dress because I thought that material would be most flattering. Here's a pic of the dress I chose for her. I hope this helps!
i dont know if people show that much at 5 months... where satin would look bad... if she were more like 8 then satin might not look so great... what do bridal shops say??

ETA... she will look cute with anything, all prego women do !!!!
My FSIL popped the news that she's hoping to be 3 months pregnant by our wedding. It's a good thing she mentioned it now, but she didn't say it to me. Last pregnancy she was showing by 3 months.
My FSIL just informed us that shes preg...due prob in Sept..our wedding is in august... dont know wahst goin to happen w/this...
My Cousin who was one of my bridesmaids also recently told me she is pregnant. She will be 7 1/2 months by the wedding. She gracefully stepped out of the wedding party since she lives in Florida and wasn't sure if she'd be able to fly etc. A friend from college who actually is almost the same size as my cousin has agreed to be a replacement bridesmaid. The dress which we already have just needs minor adjustments so that worked out well.
im in the same situation - some bridal salons have told me they can cut 'football-like' cuts on either side of the dress.. you order extra material when ordering the dress.. problem is she wont know how big she will be so she is ordering a BBIIIGGGG dress and just taking it in...
im assuming it will be A LOT of money in alterations - so if anyone has any cute pics - that would be appreciated.... Thanks...
One of my BM told me she was pregnant as soon as she found out. We ordered Bill Levkoff dresses a while ago and she'll be about 4 months for the wedding. I dunno what's gonna happen.
