I wanted to make this thread for the Plus Size bride that starts feeling hopeless when dress shopping. I am plus size and it was difficult to find a dress that fit, and even more a dress that I loved. I always saw the posts with pics of the dresses of future brides, and I always thought, "I will never look like that (a bride)". I want you to know you are beautiful! Embrace what you have. Be patient. Call around to find stores with curvalicuous sizes, and love yourself! You found your man, you will find your dress! Smiley smile I am a bride size 20-22.

    20 and DDD chest. I can't believe how comfortable and confident I feel in my dress.

    I was always afraid...my butt is usually one of a couple problems when it comes to clothes. But I found a dress that I loved. My dress size (that fits my hips) was a 24

    I'm a street size 18-20 but my dress is a 14! I dreaded dress shopping but found the perfect one for me! (We are having a very intimate casual wedding)

    I'm a bridal 24. I dreaded dress shopping but I'm so happy I found something I love. I am super self conscious of my arms so I'm having sleeves added.

    My dress is a 20. I was worried I would not feel pretty in any dress. I feel so beautiful in my dress.

    I'm loving this thread!!! I was too self conscious to let anyone take a pic of me when I got mine. This is helping to give the confidence to maybe take a pic before I get it altered
