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.

    @stephkajewski I'm also really self conscious about my arms and I've been looking into some different shawl/ jacket ideas. Also, your dress is beautiful!!

    The bow is from a belt that I ended up not getting, but I saw the dress online and fell in love and had to get it! Dress is a size 20. Included are photos of the dress from the David's website.

    I'm a size 22. I bought the size 18 on clearance and still need to have it altered. Awful angle!
