(Here's an example from Target: <a href="http://www.target.com/p/maternity-sleeveless-v-neck-dress-merona/-/A-15137518#prodSlot=_1_23" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/maternity-sleeveless-v-neck-dress-merona/-/A-15137518#prodSlot=_1_23</a> )</p> <p>I'd try not to use the peach / champagne dress for the other weddings. It might be too close to wearing white to someone else's wedding, especially with champagne being such a popular wedding dress color now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-did-you-buy-your-maternity-formal-wear#post-2018572 Sat, 10 Jan 2015 18:22:26 +0000 autumnlove 2018572@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anagram: I really like it!!

You'd be able to pick the style and have many color options and just get it tailored to fit. </p> <p>When I was 7 months pregnant and MOH in a wedding, we picked a maternity friendly gown (think empire waisted) and I normally wear a 12/14 so we ordered an 18 which was the largest size with out being charged an additional fee. Once we were about 3 weeks from the wedding the seamstress at the shop did the alterations for me. It was mainly adjusting the lining since the dress itself had a lot of room, and making the bust smaller and fit properly </p> [attach=132/15/nhxi3m.600x600.17586_10101557436506809_799830765_n.jpg] [attach=132/15/nhxi3n.600x600.1003996_10101557437015789_1600814383_n.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-did-you-buy-your-maternity-formal-wear#post-2017317 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 16:19:13 +0000 sapphire 2017317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DH bought me a lovely silk gown from Seraphine for our anniversary.
