Dress for wedding!

in June 2016 Moms
Our friends are getting married on Saturday, and I don't know what to wear..  I don't have ANY winter dresses that would hide my little bump.  Suggestions on where I can look for a dress that ISN"T an obvious maternity dress but is still appropriate for a wedding? It is a winery wedding (in November in the Midwest...yes I know!) fyi.  Thanks ladies :)

    I don't have a bump yet, only blump so I can't help much other than to say any a-line dress should disguise it.

    I only have blump now as well, but would think an a-line or empire waist could both work. Just be careful with the empire waist as it can sometimes make you look pregnant if it isn't cut right for your shape.
    Also, a longer scarf (like a cute one - not the kind you wear for warmth), or cardigan can help hide the bump or at least draw attention away from your belly.

    I don't know if you have a LuLaRoe consultant in your area but they have some super adorable dresses that would hide any evidence of a bump at this point. Plus they are super cute with a pair of tights and boots with a cute sweater. I would probably suggest the Amelia dress. This is just an image off of google of the dress. It's really cute anf flattering and can be worn so many ways.

    How big is your bump? Can you wear a dress that cinches around the waist to create the illusion of a flatter stomach?

    I would do a loose fitting long sleeve dress with some black nylons/tights.  And probably a wedge bootie or boot.

    Awesome!  Thanks ladies for the suggestions.  My bump isn't huge by any means but it is more noticeable in certain outfits, and definitely pops out more after a good meal. I just dont want to draw attention from looking eyes.  We just got married in August so we have get the "oh when are you having babies" A LOT!   I love the scarf idea, plus it gives me a reason to buy another cute scarf :)  I will have to check out LulaRoe!

    @augbride87 LuLaRoe is seriously amazing. Even if not for the wedding it is amazing to wear for every day. Plus a lot of their styles look great on baby bumps. I live in my leggings now. This woman does a blog and weekly she would take a picture of herself in her maternity clothes and a ton of them are from LLR. Hopefully you can find something great :)

    Hey, it cut off the last part of my post, suggesting you wear a long and unbuttoned dressy cardigan over your dress.

    LOL No I wish!  We really wanted a honeymoon baby.  We went on our honeymoon in Fiji the week after our wedding (which was actually perfect cycle timing) but it just wasn't in the cards.  How awesome would it have been to have a Fiji baby though :)

    Thanks ladies for all of your help :)  I ended up getting a long sleeved trapeze dress from Express and wearing a long scarf with it.  Worked like a charm!!  Paired with the excuse of being hung over from the night before, being the DD, and icy roads I don't think anyone suspected anything.

    @augbride87 - glad you posted this as we were just married in July so have been getting the are you pregnant question a lot too. With Thanksgiving in a few days I know MIL will be looking for signs of baby. Going to check out Express and LLR because my blump is starting to show in a lot of my clothes. 
    Btw - dress and scarf look super cute! Hope you had fun.
