I am not sure how many sizes, but definitely too big is a lot easier than too small. I had that issue with one of my bm and had to use another girl's dress to make it bigger. It cost her a fortune for alterations, so I would suggest ordering much bigger instead of cutting it close.

Re: TTC & Being a Bridesmaid??
Can you find out how long it takes to make that dress? Does it really need to be ordered 7 months in advance?
If possible, I would wait to order the dress until 3-4 months before the wedding even if I had to pay a rush charge on it.
It would totally suck to order the dress however many sizes bigger and then end up not being pregnant or being pregnant and having a dress that is too small. . .

Funny, I am in the same situation. I am in a May wedding...... and, as you know.... we are starting the same time as you
I plan on telling the gown place the situation (we are going next week to try them on, etc) and see what they say to do. They absolutely deal with this ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL the time!!!

Yea good idea... bigger is always better because you can work with it. I also forgot about being able to pay for a rush order... what you said was EXACTLY what I was thinking about- then what if I order it bigger and not be pregnant at all
Pennycat... omg we have soooooo much in common- the similarities never seem to end lol!!!
So do you plan on ordering bigger or waiting to order? You going to Davids Bridal by any chance?
