So my dress is very see through at the top area but I need tummy control! Any suggestions on shape wear that could work? Also for my bra I wear a 34G so idk how I’m gunna make this work, if all else fails I can get cups altered into the dress and also add straps ... also what kind of veil would y’all recommend? I wanted cathedral but realized it would take away from my dress! Helppp

I'm no help when it comes to the shapewear, I just wanted to say your dress is gorgeous!! As far as the veil goes, I had the same concern but I think a plain cathedral veil would look sooo pretty! Here's mine (I have my train bustled in this photo, but it is very detailed with floral applique). I bought it on Amazon for under $20!:

Hi Shelby! I recently tried on the same dress at David's Bridal and it looks very GORGEOUS on you! The dress however is very complex! You can use a waist trainer or spanx to go under to smooth and slim the belly area and for the cups, the only option that was given was to add cups to the inside to provide the support they would need.

I found nude spanx at target that is belly to mid thigh for around $30. Wouldn't show through the nude paneling at all.

Hey there, Shelby!

Your dress is so pretty It looks amazing on you.

I’m pretty sure you can get shapewear which stops just above the stomach and doesn’t go right up to the bust. Check out different brands and see if this is something you can find.

I agree with you that for bust control, adding cups to the dress may be the best option. Do you have a seamstress you could speak to about this and see if it’s possible?

If you want to wear a cathedral veil, you totally can with this dress. As Rebecca mentioned, a plain cathedral would be so gorgeous. If you selected a plain one, I don't think it would take from the dress at all. Have you tried one on with your dress yet?
