Stupid "how to get into the dress" question

I would love to help you but can't figure that out either. Now i have to search for this "how to pee in your wedding dress" question because I'm having serious anxiety about this.. LOL Good luck on finding your answer. I'm sure I'll have to refer to it as well.

Usually you step into your gown therefore not messing up your hair now if the dress is not the Type you can step into it just carefully put it over your head with the the help of your BM

I have had to do this in previous years with a prom dress I have wrapped a shall around my face and hair and that really helped

Can you step into your dress? That's what I would try first. Maybe you can put some kind of cap over your head if you need to pull the dress over your head!

Why would the dress go over your head? you should be able to step into it.

I'll have to try to see if I can step into it ... that does seem like the best idea.

Kelly - I read you have to pee in your dress a) with the help of your MOH/BM or b) facing the wall on the toilet. Supposedly that works. I think I will try not to pee that night.

Thank god I have a large capacity bladder. Nurse. We don't pee often.

For the fittings I never stepped into it; it always went over my head. But I guess at that point there was no makup and hair done. It does have a corset back, so we should be able to undo the back and I step in. Ahh the details!

How do i pee in my dress?

Mrs. Noble - I read you face the wall when you hover over the toilet and likely your MOH/BM holds your dress.

For you ladies that were interested, I added the "peeing" article.. I made a copy when I found it.

The original question.. Mine goes over my head since my hips are bigger than my shoulders... I plan on being careful and possibly a shower cap for a second or two... it also helps that one of my BM's is my hairdresser.

Because this seems to be a topic that has several people hitting the panic button, here is how to pee while wearing your wedding dress:

On arrival at your venue

• Open the door of the ladies' room and look in. If the floor is not clean, call the venue staff and ask to have it cleaned.

• If the floor is clean, walk into the ladies' room and open the door of the handicapped stall. If the floor of the handicapped stall is not clean, call the venue staff and ask to have it cleaned.

This ensures that you will not later get the train/back of the dress dirty just by having it touch the floor.

When you need to go

• Walk into the handicapped stall. Remove (don't just pull down) your underpants.

• Facing the toilet, pull up the front of your dress to your waist.

• Walk straight forward, so you are straddling the toilet, and sit down that way. The train/back of your dress will now be away from the toilet, so you won't get them wet or dirty.

• Lean forward before peeing. That way, even if you drop

• Lean forward before peeing. That way, even if you drop the front of the dress onto the seat, you will not pee in its direction.

Special tips for hoop skirts/crinolines

• When lifting your skirt, make sure that you grab all of the hoops together. this can be done by reaching under the bottom flounce and pulling straight up. If you are wearing an under-petticoat, don't forget to grab it too. This can be, and has been, a very bad thing to forget.

• Once you have a good handle on the hoops, swing the whole thing to the rear, as if you are preparing to hula-hoop with your dress. This will move the whole contraption behind you and out of the 'danger zone'. It will also slightly lift a shorter train off the floor which is a plus.

• When you are done, drop the hoop straight to the floor and give a little circular hip-shimmy. This will help you to get your dress hem back over the bottom hoop. It is always a good idea to have a friend do a 360 of the hem to make sure nothing is showing that sh

• When you are done, drop the hoop straight to the floor and give a little circular hip-shimmy. This will help you to get your dress hem back over the bottom hoop. It is always a good idea to have a friend do a 360 of the hem to make sure nothing is showing that shouldn't be.

And in case no one has told you this yet, never ever under any circumstances step straight backward while in a hoop. You will step on it, and you will fall over, and this will give a free show to anyone standing in front of you. Not directly related, but one of the top tips for wearing a hoop.
