Help, I'm reading at a Wedding in December and will be 7 months pregnant.

Help please, the dress code is party not rather than wedding but don't want to look like something that would sink the titanic. Can't afford Isabelle Oliver and will probably only wear it once.

Red? Quite summery though (though that might not be a problem - I was always pretty warm when pg)

I nearly bought Tillyscouts second link for my brother's wedding but ended up choosing this one I know you said you didn't want IO but they have 20% off at the mo and you could sell it!

I'm a 16 so, to be honest, the cake might just work!

If you're going for cake couture - can I suggest 3rd across, 2nd down - its the one I've just ordered for my wedding (hence having the link )

I hired an outfit for my brothers wedding when 8months pregnant, and doing a reading.

See if any where does this it worked well.

I chose badly though. i chose a pale pink tunic dress with matching coat, now looking back on photos I look like the queemn mother

There is a quite a few websites that hire maternity wear. That way you can get something stunning for fraction of the price and not have to worry about wearing it again
