Just like the title says.
I will be 35 weeks in October and am attending a fairly nice wedding (not black tie but not a cotton maxi dress type affair).
WHERE do I find an acceptable dress online? Virtually no stores in my area carry maternity dresses for me to try on, so online it is.
What have you worn in a similar situation? I am desperate for any and all suggestions.
Thanks in advance!

@buttermilk: Ok, thanks! I have never bought anything from there - you can return, right?

@wrkbrk: Asos! Free shipping and returns! Just account for international shipping time. And FYI they run small so I would order a size up from whatever you think your maternity size will be.

I'm in a wedding at 38 week so my I ordered my dress from Tiffany Rose. It's a UK company that specializes in maternity dresses. they had very reasonable and super quick shipping. They had so many nice maternity dresses!

I went to a wedding at 38 weeks and wore this ASOS dress, I loved it and it was very comfortable.

@buttermilk: @ScarletBegonia: @regberadaisy: ASOS is sounding like the winning bet! Yay! I am excited to look.

Yup!! Asos maternity! I got a black dress that was off the shoulder and I loved it. Sad I only got to wear it once.

Another vote for ASOS! You will definitely find something there. I got two dresses to wear to my showers and they were so nice. And the free returns are so helpful so you can try a few and just keep one.

I had three formal events during my third trimester and wore this dress to each. It's very comfortable and flattering. Also a great deal.

I wore this to three formal events in my third trimester. Was very flattering and comfortable. Also a good price for something I won't wear again.

Sorry for the double post. It gave me an error the first time so I posted a second time.

I went to a wedding at 36 weeks and just borrowed an empire waist non maternity dress a few sizes bigger than I normally wear. It was a lace dress pretty similar to that first picture.

@wrkbrk: great minds think alike 
I also have 2 events on the same weekend in mid November, and I think I will be scouring asos until then to find a dress (or 2)

@wrkbrk: If that doesn't work, try Mine for Nine. It's like Rent the Runway for maternity clothes. I rented from there several times during my last pregnancy.
