How do you go to the bathroom in a wedding dress?

Hi guys. So I am 2 months out to my wedding and I am wondering how you go to the restroom in your dress. My dress is A-line and has a train. Any suggestions from recently married ladies? I found a site that gave suggestions, but I was wondering how well they work:...

    I only went pee once at my reception and I was surprised hahaha

    To pee, my bestie held up my dress. No shame! There was so much dress there was no way anyone was seeing anything! I was like a poufy cupcake on the toilet! Smiley laugh LOL

    I pee like every 5 minutes, especially when im nervous. My dress is a very form fitting mermaid, so im not sure if i'll be able to get it up high enough pee. Its a zip back, so i honestly may just take it on and off to pee and have a bridesmaid hold it while i go

    Oh, God, I never gave it a lot of thought! I guess I should practice the backward peeing thing. I hope I can even get my dress up high enough! Just thinking about it is making me have to go!

    Ok I am glad I am not the only nervous pee-er... and with a zipper and buttons, I am nervous beyond belief.

    I guess I will pee backwards and become closer with one of my best friends.

    I don't want my dress touching the toilet, so I'll just have to go before and take the dress off if I need to go anytime after that. I'm a colon hydrotherapist so I will be giving myself a colonic a day before my wedding to ensure that number two is taken care of. It takes a day or two to have another movement after a colonic, so I think I have all the bases covered. Lol good luck to everyone with that.

    I saw an advert for the 'bridal buddy' which helps protect your dress while you pee!

    I have the bladder of a 5 year old so I'm worried about this too! I say the backwards trick and a friend.
