HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY
Planning a wedding while pregnant?
Wedding Dress
As time goes on your body will change in many different ways. This makes picking out a wedding dress extremely difficult. Thankfully there are maternity wedding dresses available out there that cater to growing bellies and busts.To be on the safe side I would try and get a dress that is stretchy and adjustable. This may seem crazy if you are just the beginning but trust me you change is unexpected ways. Also try and push ordering the dress until the last possible month as it is difficult to predict sizes and shapes and you don’t want to end up with a dress that doesn’t fit.
Accessorize Accordingly
It is important to think about your accessories that go along with the dress ahead of time. For example, heels seem fine in the beginning of the pregnancy, but become quite uncomfortable towards the middle. To be on the safe side wear flats at your wedding or even flip flops if the weather is beautiful, as they allow your feet to swell and contract freely.Other than shoes, make sure your other accessories will accommodate a growing body. Order your wedding band a size larger for swelling fingers and keep jewelry to a minimum. Earrings and a necklace are elegant and simple.
You don’t need to over do the makeup either as there is not so friendly ingredients in many products. Try and go for natural or organic ingredients in your lotion, foundation, eye shadow, mascara and bronzer. I personally wear organic makeup so I know it is reasonably priced and available and most retail stores.
Emotions
Throughout your whole pregnancy hormone levels are changing causing many women to have racing emotions. Little accidents or mishaps seem like the end of the world and planning everything for the wedding can seem like way too much.To help rest your mind and emotions it is best to designate a close friend or family member to help you with planning the wedding. You can also hire a wedding planner if it is in your budget. This will ensure that you have someone to take the pressure off your shoulders and do the fifty phone calls to price out all the caterers, florists, venues and photographers.
Healthy Food
The fun part of being pregnant is how much healthier you can have the food served at your wedding. It is a great excuse to have lots of fresh fruits and vegetables lying around and entrées that are low in fat and high in nutrients.However, you have to think about things like tomatoes which are very acidic and create acid reflux and food aversions. While you may have loved prime rib before you got pregnant, you may not like the smell or taste of it throughout your pregnancy. Make sure you test the food close to the wedding date to ensure you will not be disgusted by the meal due to the smell or taste. This will save you a lot of hassle.
