Maternity Wedding Dresses - Getting Married Pregnant is in Fashion

There was a time when having a baby before getting married was a little taboo! Not any more however, and the number of brides that walk up the aisle while pregnant has grown to 1 in 5. That's 20% of brides today carrying a little one up to the altar.

Today's views on getting married while pregnant have changed and it's no longer as taboo as it used to be. It's true that our more liberal community has now embraced the fact that citizen don't even get married at all but there is a traditionalist in the back of everyone's mind that says "I'm pregnant and I want to be married before baby arrives".

Dresses Contemporary

This new outlook on things has led to a bungalow commerce of small clubs gift maternity wedding dresses to expectant brides to be. The former style of wedding dresses do not ordinarily cater for a growing bump and there are key problems with tying to buy a general wedding dress when you are expecting.

  1. You ordinarily have to order 3-6 months in advance. You have no idea what size you will be when you want to wear the dress!
  2. Many dresses have corsets and they just are not comfortable to wear while pregnant. They also constrict your tummy and that's not good for baby either.
  3. You may not even know your pregnant when shopping for your dress so where do you go from there?

This is where the maternity wedding dress shops come into their own gift a unique aid for this small but needy group of brides.

Maternity wedding dresses are commonly empire line dresses so they are fitted around your bust and under the bust which means you have abundance of room to grow. It doesn't matter either you are 12 or 40 weeks pregnant as the dress itself will just enlarge as your tummy requires more room.

The dresses tend to be more "off the shelf" than fitted but there are some gorgeous grecian and more contemporary "A line" styles out there and with 4 or 5 devotee designers now in the market there is abundance of option for everyones taste.

If you have a little one on the way and are heading up the aisle soon then you're now catered for. Some of the larger stockists sell online which means you can order and try the dress you like on at home as there are not too many shops around to choose from.

Don't hide your bump - flaunt it!
