What skivvies are you wearing the day of?

Rachel, on May 30, 2019 at 10:50 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 20
Wondering what everyone is planning.... my dress is going to have to be altered to put breast pads in, and I’ll probably just wear a panty under. I’m not sure whether to go for sexy or practical, though. Is it possible to have sexy that won’t show texture under a stark white, completely bare, skin-tight satin dress? The satin is heavier, soooo.......

What are you planning to do?

    If we aren't too tired by the end of the wedding, I will bring some lingerie to change into. Literally everyone I know has said that the only thing that happens the wedding night is hitting the bed and falling asleep. I'm going for practical. I have a pair of spanx-like shapewear that have the shorts to prevent thigh rub and help with the tummy.

    Honesty, depending on when your wedding is, I would go practical rather than sexy. You're going to sweat on your wedding day and probably won't want to stay in your dress or undergarments long enough for them to be properly appreciated at the end of the night. I've also read that about 60% of couples dont actually "seal the deal" on their wedding night anyway anymore because they're just so exhausted.

    I’m wearing most comfortable underwear I can find. No need to wear something sexy to sweat in for 8 hours.

    My goal with my dress was not to have to wear Spanx and I think I’m going to pull it off. I’m small chested and my dress is an a-line. I was going to get cute, personalized “Mrs.” panties but it’s just one more expense that I don’t need to splurge on. I bought a beautiful pair of white and nude floral lace bikinis.

    I had my bra added in when I got my alterations done and I bought this set in white from Adore Me and will be wearing the panties with my dress

    I’m going sexy because even if I sweat I’m expecting my fiancé is still going to want to be the one to take my dress off and happily send me to the shower and more than likely join me lol. I’m doing a sheer strapless bra, mesh looking corset and also found these sexy mesh shapewear shorts. The combination looks like a lingerie set. I was pleasantly surprised. You can still be sexy with minimal things. Not sure how far you want to go 🤷🏾‍♀️ But you can do a lacy thong and pasties/tassels since the cups should hide the texture.

    Not sure yet, but based on my dress I should be able to get away with something comfortable (YAYY). Lol, I’ll pick something cute out for later if we’re still awake afterwards

    My fiance thinks all my underpants are sexy so I'm lucky 🤣
    I was going to wear a nicer nude lace panty with my Spanx. And my dress doesn't need a bra so I'm going free boob. Afterwards I'll probably want to free boob anyway.

    I just bought some practical and comfortable nude bikini underwear. I'm glad I went that way so I was comfortable all day! And at the end of the night, my husband didn't really care what underwear I was wearing anyway 😂

    Full on comfort! Well, as much as is possible with having to wear a strapless bra.

    I'll probably also throw on nude some slip shorts from Thigh Society to prevent thigh rub and potentially absorb sweat. Early September is tricky in the Midwest! I like the slip shorts because they're like shapewear in the coverage, but not in the fit. They're not too tight!

    My dress has cups so I don't need a bra either. Idk I was thinking just white (maybe lace-y) panties but normal ones, no thong. I have like two layers and the whole thing is beaded so I am good on it not being see-through. I would go comfortable and wear seamless underwear probably nude. You might be able to get away with thin lace nude underwear, not that thicker lace.

    I'm going for practical. It's going to be a hot summer day and I can always change into something sexier once we get back to the hotel. I'll be wearing a pair of thigh length spanx to keep myself cool. No bra required with my dress.

    I was debating ordering some comfy yet sexy undies that say Mrs. Brittain or something like that, something he will appreciate but also that I can wear all night without being uncomfortable. My dress allows me to wear any sort of underwear, I could wear Nike shorts if I wanted Hahha. That’s the bonus to a ball gown!

    I bought a cute white panty from Victoria secret. Nothing special just a cheeky lacy one that I have in every other color and know I love.

    I think it would be funny if i wore something totally unsexy so he would see when he gets the garter ahah. but i don't actually know yet what i will wear that day. but i think i would rather go practical and comfort.

    Truth! Haha we each took a shower and hit the hay haha.

    That said, I just wore nude seamless shaping panties. My dress was crepe and probably would have shown anything too crazy.
