Not all women are gifted with that slim and slender body. Brides who require plus size wedding gowns should be very careful when choosing which dress would flatter their bodies. There are certain fabrics, designs, and cut that would suit you best. Here are the tips to help you out:
1. Determine your actual body shape.
Plus size women can either be pear-shaped or apple-shaped. For pear-shaped brides, an empire cut gown is ideal for it draws the focus on your bottom. For round or apple-shaped brides, a wedding gown with a simple neckline and embellished A-line skirt is recommended.
2. The wedding dress made of satin with a ruched design is recommended.
Of all the fabrics used for a wedding gown, satin is a plus size woman's best friend. And as far as designs are concerned, ruched is the best choice. This combination effectively hides all those bulges away.
3. Opt for lace sleeves and strapped gowns if you don't want to show off your arms.
Not all plus-size brides are comfortable in showing off their arms. If you feel this way, look for wedding gowns with lace sleeves instead. Shoulder straps on a strapless wedding gown can also be added easily.

Jordan and I were married on October 11 2009. When he first saw me in my dress, he cried - it must have been all the emotion AND the stunning dress!!! I am so happy to have purchased my wedding dress at Best for Bride because it was an enjoyable process and the result was excellent. I did not feel the need to shop around to other stores because I knew immediately you had a great selection, fair prices and knowledgeable and friendly service. Your staff were helpful as I tried on dress after dress and the final alterations were a perfect fit. Now I am just looking for another occasion to wear this gorgeous dress!
I wanted to thank you so very much for the beautiful dresses I purchased from you this Fall 2009 from the Etobicoke store! Everyone who assisted me with my dress were extremely kind and helpful, especially the seamstress who helped me with my fitting! I am so glad that I found your website online, and I recommend you to everyone! Photos is the bridal dress and the bridesmaids

So today I tried on a lot of different dresses. Everyone had a lot of patience with me since there are were a lot of dresses. It's was a lot of fun though, it's really relaxed atmosphere, it was nice, I felt comfortable here and we had a lot of fun and laughs and jokes. It was really great and I FOUND MY DRESS.
That's great and congratulations and what did you think?
I loved it and I love this atmosphere. It's really really comfortable area to be and it's nice to be here with my sister.
I love to shovel because I just spent I don't know how many hours at Best for Brides.
So tell us why you came to Best for Bride?
I'm on a very strict budget and I honestly didn't think that I was gonna find anything that I could afford and I saw online that this offered the most variety and I think for the best prices. I was so surprised.
So your experience was good?
Oh my gosh. Beyond good. It started all a little rough because I didn't know what I wanted I did not know what style. Donna came in and she just took over. In the end it's amazing how it happened because Donna just took the best in every dress I have tried on and put it all in one and I couldn't have asked for anything better. I am so over the moon happy right now I could cry again. Ah yeah the far better than I have ever expected this experience to be. So thank you Donna. Thank you Best for Brides because it's has been absolutely incredible. I didn't come expecting to find a dress and here we are ... going home happy.
I just want to thank everybody at Best for Bride for helping me select my dress. Everybody thought I was crazy for waiting two weeks before my wedding to get the dress and I came in yesterday and purchasing my dress today and I am getting it altered tomorrow and it will be ready in five days. Thanks guys!
