We have 4 different weddings to attend in May. One is black tie, two are normal 
and one has a specific request for peach, champagne, beige and tan clothing. I hope I can find one (or 2 dresses) that will work for all these weddings!
I just started looking at Asos...any other recommendations?

I'm in a wedding this fall and will hopefully be pregnant. I plan on getting my dress through Tiffany Rose - it's a UK company. Their dresses are beautiful !

Maybe you can find one long peach dress to wear to all of them?!?!

Seraphine has great dresses! Isabella Oliver has some in black
I have a wedding in March, eep

side note: they requested you wear a specific color? Is that a thing now?

@autumnlove: Omg, I would seriously not! Telling your guests what to wear is a step too far, imho.

My DH bought me a lovely silk gown from Seraphine for our anniversary. It is so gorgeous and fits so well. Expensive but worth it!

I used to work at a bridal shop.... could you order a bridesmaid dress through one? You'd be able to pick the style and have many color options and just get it tailored to fit.
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

You could probably get away with something from Modcloth like this: http://www.modcloth.com/shop/dresses/with-style-and-lace-dress or http://www.modcloth.com/shop/dresses/always-ethereal-dress

Thanks for the suggestions!

@Anagram: What about this rose pink?!?

This might work for my peachy-beige wedding but they are out of my size.

@autumnlove: I really like that shape, and that I could easily wear it with a bra. But mine has to be champagne....boo! That is my fave dress so far though.

@Anagram: I really like it!! I will keep looking!

You could probably find a simple, classic-looking black dress to wear to the first 3 and dress it up more with shoes and jewelry for the more formal wedding. (Here's an example from Target: http://www.target.com/p/maternity-sleeveless-v-neck-dress-merona/-/A-15137518#prodSlot=_1_23 )
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.

Oh my goodness, I could not look for maternity formal wear. All the models make me feel like a complete schlub!!

@Anagram: I love the second one!!! 
I gotta figure out my UK size....since we are due in Aug maybe I should buy the biggest avail and have it altered?!
What do you think about this dress for my girls? It is sold out on Carter's but I saw a few new listings on EBay.

@autumnlove: I just need to comment on how annoyed I would be if someone tried to tell me what color to wear to a wedding (unless I was in the bridal party).

@autumnlove: oh, I linked the UK site somehow. There are american sizes on the USA site. http://us.asos.com/ASOS-Maternity-Embellished-Midi-Skater-Dress/12u63q/?iid=3903680&clr=Nude&SearchQuery=maternity+embellished+skater+midi+dress&pgesize=11&pge=1&totalstyles=11&gridsize=3&gridrow=1&gridcolumn=1&mporgp=L2Fzb3MtbWF0ZXJuaXR5L2Fzb3MtbWF0ZXJuaXR5LWVtYmVsbGlzaGVkLW1pZGktc2thdGVyLWRyZXNzL3Byb2Qv
i'm thinking about ordering this one, too! I think my boobs are too big for a scoop neck to be flattering, but at that price, I may as well order it and return if I don't like it.

@autumnlove: they have that dress in the store still! I bought one the other day! (Eta: the carters dress)

@cheert16: Oooh, thanks!
@Anagram: thank you!!!

@autumnlove: I just ordered 6 (!) dresses online today, in hopes one will work. I'm not too hopeful about any of them.. but we shall see!
My next stop if none of these work will be to look into ordering something at a place like David's bridal and having it altered (ugh), or maybe ordering from an Asian place like JJshouse.

@Anagram: Oooh, can't wait to see THE dress!
