I am at 26 weeks and feeling pretty big, probably because this is my 2nd pregnancy. I'm attending a wedding tomorrow and dreading it a little. There will be a lot of people I haven't seen since college there. Any tips to have a good time and feel cute?

I wore heels to a wedding when I was 29 weeks pregnant and I was miserable! Maybe you can pack flats in your purse?
-
@autumnlove: Yes! I am wearing wedges because the bride told us that the event is on grass and heels would sink in. I don't think I can quite bring myself to wear flats to a wedding. My wedges should be comfy!
-
drink lots of mocktails and pretend there's alcohol in them? aww have tons of fun!
-
@tequiero21: haha, if I could drink, it would be lots of fun!! sad ....

Oh gosh - so I'm early days yet, but if all goes to plan, I'll be 8 months along at my brother's wedding. Scary!

I am attending a wedding tomorrow (37w) and another in 2 weeks (39w!).
After a summer marathon of weddings (two at 27w, one at 28w, one at 30w, two at 31w) see if you can get yourself a new outfit for each one! I borrowed or wore stretchy non-preggo dresses and did wear some heels (I nevvvvver wear heels!) And honestly had so much fun! DH and I never stayed late, and sometimes I went to our room before him, but new/not mine outfits made me feel so good!
I ran out of luck on borrowed outfits or non-preggo fitting, so tonight went a bought tomorrow's outfit......aw well....I am looking forward to it now, worth the money and hopefully I'll look ok!
I don't dress up that often (ok, these weddings, lol) but changing it up for me has really helped and made me feel like I look good!
Good luck!

I also have two weddings late in my pregnancy--one at 36 weeks and one at 37 weeks. My plan is to get my hair done (and maybe my makeup done) so at least I look pretty even if I feel like a whale!
-
I totally agree with splurging on a cute outfit, and getting your hair and nails done! And maybe makeup too? I got a few cute outfits at Pea in the Pod (clearance rack ftw!) for some summer weddings and I loved them. I also wore wedge heels instead of flats and they made me feel a lot cuter. Since I was sitting at every chance anyway, I figured I might as well be wearing cute shoes!
-
I went to two weddings while pregnant. I have to say, I entertained myself by watching drunk people dance, which was highly entertaining and made me never want to drink too much at a wedding ever again!
Other than that, I wore cute dresses and heels and soaked up all the compliments for being so cute and pregnant. If there is anything people love even more than a bride, its a cute pregnant woman.
-
Definitely sit back and watch the drunk people make fools of themselves. Enjoy some dancing with dh. Just be happy you're pregnant and relish in the glow of pregnancy. You know you're beautiful, embrace it.

@mediagirl: aww you are so sweet, thanks. :-)))))

Go the extra mile to make sure your hair and makeup is awesome and wear comfortable shoes and something you feel amazing in. I was the matron of honor at my friends wedding when I was a few days shy of 38 weeks and I had a blast! Me and my sister tore up the dance floor more than anyone else at that wedding.

Have fun!!!!!!!!!!!
