Ladies! Im having a difficult time finding a dress!

I'm a big girl. I wear a size 18 and I found beautiful dresses on Azazie. For $15 they will ship the dress to your house for you to try on. They also do custom sizing. Take your measurements and follow the size chart. Hope this helps

I second Azazie! I'm not really plus sized, but I'm not skinny either. But the FREE custom sizing with Azazie is amazing in my opinion. They have a lot of beautiful and affordable wedding dresses (not thousands of dollars), and I love that you can try them on at home. Either way, you'll still look absolutely beautiful in whatever dress you choose and your FH will think so too

Hey girl! I'm a size 14/16 and went to a bridal boutique that had tons of plus size dresses for me to try on. Maybe you can search for shops that carry plus? My dress is Willowby Watters, and Watters also sells plus size dresses. You'll find the one!

This is an experience no bride should have! Wedding dress shopping should be fun and enjoyable. I'm so sorry to hear you're having a hard time with it, that's very discouraging. If traveling is an option for you and you can find a salon not too far away, I'd recommend trying to go there. otherwise, look online!! Look on this website and other similar ones to find women with comparable bodies to see what they wore. Obviously every person is different and it's all about what you're comfortable in and what makes you feel your best. Your FH will think you look beautiful no matter what you wear, I'm sure of that. But you need to find something you feel good in!! Maybe try looking on Amazon? You may be able to find some things you can order to try on then send back (free returns for Prime members). That might help you get an idea of what style you like on yourself. Reach out to a stylist in an online forum to find someone with experience who can help you choose. Sometimes other people might be able to tell what would suit your body better than you can tell yourself.

I second PPs comments about checking out Azazie. As a plus sized bride myself, I made sure to specifically search for shops that carry curvy samples and refused to visit a salon where I wouldn't be able to try on dresses. Even if you don't consider yourself plus size, I would search for plus size bridal salons in your area, they typically start out at a bridal size 14.

I would look at Azazie, they have a lot of sizes & you can order at home try ons for $15 a piece. Have you thought about taking a day trip or weekend trip to a bigger city, with more options?

I was SO afraid to dress shop because of my size (pant size 18). I went to DB and had an okay experience, then I bought a Maggie Sottero gown on Still White that was a size 20. It is beautiful, and fit perfect (only needed hemmed). I still felt like it wasn't MY dress, but told myself it was beautiful, and I REALLY did not want to go through shopping and squeezing into too small dresses again. There is an off the rack shop here that carries 00-32 that the owner (a plus size woman) opened because she had a miserable dress search. They usually are too expensive for me, but they had a huge sale last month and I fell in love with a Bonny Bridal gown. I am so glad I got back out there. Dress shopping is daunting no matter the size, but you will make a beautiful bride, no matter what the number on the tag is!

I plan to check out both Azazie and Anomalie. I haven't explored Azazie before. I'm honestly just hearing about it on this thread, but I have explored Anomalie. They custom make your dress based on features you like/want. Seems like an awesome idea!

Well I came to report that ladies I made an appointment at David's bridal and a plus size bridal store in the city! I'm bringing some back up this time as well ! Also nervous its all his family since mine is in California. However, I decided that it was time to start getting healthy . I lost 15 pounds in October!!!!! I also looked on Azazie and contacted anomalie, im gonna keep them in my back pockets. I will take a look at postmark and i actually purchased one on Amazon and had a horrible expierence. The dress was different then the add and felt like a costume
