I Need a Plus Size Wedding Dress
But What Will Look Good on Me?

In looking at plus size bridal gowns, I had a lot to consider besides the size. First, I'm short. 5'1.5" to be exact, much shorter than what designers consider the average bride.

I also wanted a dress that would look just as stunning in an ivory color as it would in white. Being an already married, mature bride, ivory was my perfect choice.

Next, I'm sort of on the large side and when I'd look at the size charts for several different styles of wedding gowns in the larger sizes, it made me even more frustrated.

My body shape doesn't fit into any particular size category; it sort of wanders all over, so when I buy clothes, in order for them to fit around the middle comfortably, I have to tolerate them being too large and much too roomy everywhere else.

Trying a gown off the rack was certainly not turning out to be a feasible option for me, but I persevered. And then I turned to a professional online for some much needed advice.

The tips and advice that I got from Desiree at The Perfect Wedding Dress Finder helped put me right into a gown that I was actually able to try on at a local salon!

All this time I thought I'd never be able to find a gown to fit my shape without spending hundreds of dollars in alteration fees on top of hundreds for a plus size wedding dress.

But by consulting a professional who knows exactly what to look for based on her experience with fitting plus size brides, I was able to find my ideal gown that fits perfectly on my more than imperfect body and is absolutely gorgeous in a soft ivory shade.
