For His Eyes Only

AEW, on August 9, 2019 at 1:14 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 1 41

Hi Hi

I know most of us will be wearing a garter under our gorgeous dresses but is there anything else that you may (or may not) be wearing under there? Something special or unexpected?

I used to have some waist beads and I'm thinking about getting me a new set in addition to something frilly and pretty.

    My wedding day was 90 degrees and 90% humidity. I literally took a pair of cuticle scissors and cut my underwear off because they were so sweaty.

    I had a garter and fun stuff for the honeymoon but my wedding day was one of the sweatiest days of my life.

    It cracked my friend up when they helped me peel my wedding dress off.

    Oh yeah, laugh it out! I did! My mom was switching my veil for a hair piece during cocktail hour and I just took the scissors, shoved them up my skirt and just wildly cut near my hip and prayed I didn’t lacerate any skin 🤣

    You are cracking me up. You sound so much like a good friend of mine. Something needs to be fixed, grab the hammer and let's do this! I love it and I'm so glad you felt some relief. But I have to know what your mom said or did.

    I never even really thought about that! My wedding is in 2 yrs and now I'll definitely be thinking about trying to do something special. Whatever I do though I'll definitely let my FH (hubby by then) know. It'll drive him crazy haha

    I couldn’t wear much because of my dress. I wore my garter only for the toss which I put right in the spot. My dress was tight and see thru at places that everything would be noticeable even the garter or regular underwear. I did wear something more special later on just for his eyes.

    The weather should only be 70 degrees at my wedding so I’m going to attempt a frilly look. FH likes the look of garterbelts so I might get one. I don’t have an actual garter since he doesn’t care about that tradition and neither do I. I’ll just put on the rest later since I can’t wear a bra with my dress.
    It’s funny, I don’t care at all about him seeing my dress all the time but I went completely territorial when he almost saw my wedding night negligee I had stored. Don’t you DARE look! Since he doesn’t even know what WW is I’ll just say it’s a gorgeous pale pink silk covered in beaded lace. It looks so pretty! I can’t wait to wear it.

    There will be exactly 0 sexiness going on under my dress. The most comfortable pair of underwear I own and shape wear. Lingerie is great for the night of (if you even have the energy) or the honeymoon, but there’s no sense in being uncomfortable in sweaty ruffly underwear for 8 hours.

    Lol Yam I can agree with you. But FH hasn't seen either - the dress or the negligee. I may even need to get something new for the wedding night because like my dress I got the sexy stuff 2 years ago. I'm sure he won't mind it being a little snug but . . . we'll see. Maybe I just want to get something new Smiley tongue

    Lol that is too funny. But completely logical Caytlyn. I'm of the belief that comfort beats being cute. This wedding may possibly be the only exception ever

    Yesssss.
    I told H "Sorry hon. There's nothing sexy going on under my dress tonight."
    He didn't care. We saved the sexy stuff for the mini moon.

    Hahaha. My husband hates being the center of attention (and gets so nervous) so I waited until we were doing our first dance and I leaned into his ear and told him. He laughed so hard. He knows what he married and wasn’t surprised in the least (but a little irked that we spent $40 on underwear the last roughly 3 hours)

    Hahaha thanks! my mom warned me that lace was a bad plan when I bought them, so she chuckled to herself and offered up the trauma sheers in her go-bag in the car if the cuticle scissors didn’t cut it. She did admonish me when I stuffed them in my clutch 😂

    Only 48 percent of couples have sex on their wedding nights. And among those that do, many of the brides change out of their wedding dresses before bedtime, anyway. (For example, you might not want to wear your wedding dress for the ride home/back to your hotel/etc.) Plus, wedding dresses tend to be warm, and if you do a lot of dancing, you may well end up sweaty. So I wouldn't bother with sexy lingerie under the wedding dress. Go home, take a shower, then change into that nice lingerie.
