"Hi I'm Becky Sosa with Stress Free Events and I'd like to talk to you about ideas for plus sized wedding gowns. A lot of designers these days are considering that the brides are not all small and that there are lots of plus size brides that want an elegant dress. You have lots to choose from. So at this time what you need to do is decide what you want your wedding dress to look like. Look at the features that you would prefer to hide, and those that you prefer to accent. Look at your body type and see what's going to look best for you. For me one of the things that I knew that I didn't want was anybody to see my arms. But I didn't want a big heavy gown because I got married in the spring. There are definitely options for that. For me, I went with lace sleeves on my wedding dress. There's definitely lots of options for things like this. Just because you are overweight doesn't mean that you need a bunch of tulle and a bunch of things to cover everything up. You can still have a nice gown that shows off your figure. These are just some ideas for a plus size wedding gown."
