Wondering if any plus size brides have been to try on wedding dresses like Maggie sitters or Jenny packham? How did you get on? How did your experience of trying dresses on go? I am a busty size 18-20 and have found some beautiful dresses by these designers but terrified I won’t even be allowed to try them on because sample sizes are like 10-12 :s help!

Hi you will be able to try on what ever they have in stock don't forget they are out to make sales. If you have a wed2b store near you they have dresses up to size 30 good luck :)

Hi,
I'm a size 18 and tried on lots of size 10 and 12 dresses. I could get them on but they didn't fasten. I ended up buying an Essence of Australia dress which I tried on in a size 10 and the shop ordered a size 22 to fit me! Wedding dress sizes are not any way like reality of high street sizes. None of the shops I visited had any problem with me trying the dresses on. I wouldn't have been very happy if they had!
