Hello, I am looking for an affordable, casual wedding dress. I'm not sure what style to look for as I have gained a lot of weight this year. I keep seeing styles that either I like the top but not the bottom and vis-versa. I work full time and live on a ranch, not much time to shop.
Thank-you very much for any advice. I'm also looking for tasteful country or horse style invitations (not many out there).

Hi! I am a plus sized bride myself and I found this great website Plus Size Wedding Gowns Full Figure Bridal Bras Wedding Gowns| Plus Size Bridal
my psersonal favorite is 1505W.

as for wedding invites I think Rexcroft or invitations by Dawn or something like that... I have seen country themed invites in those two catalogues or websites.

hope this helps!!!

Some fall invites allso look kind of countryish so you might want to check that out. Also anything understated and floral would also look countryish.

I liked a dress i tried on by veuns bridal. I'm doing the sleeves differently though. It is $600, which seems affordable to me, but I'm not sure what your dress budget is.



here are designers I like (in the plus sizes):
Venus Bridals
Allure Bridals
and Alfred Angelo... Find the perfect Wedding Dress, Bridesmaid Dress, Prom Dress, Flower Girl Dress or Mother of the Bride Dress at Alfred Angelo.!

Everyone makes nice ones, imo

I'm a plus sized bride-to-be too, and I like the idea of the medieval style gowns.. they're more flattering to curvy gals. Check this out for some ideas on beautiful "larger" styles. Fairytale/Rennaissance Wedding Gowns. Although, I just started taking phentermine in hopes of being NOT so plus size on my wedding day. I have a LONG way to go though.
