WHERE ARE ALL THE BRIDES GONE?!?!? I have a bra question.... - Vancouver Wedding Forum

Hi Ladies!

Where is everyone? I have not seen new posts lately...

I a also guilty of not posting anything in the past month as I've been busy. FI and I bought a new house and we are moving in to our new place on the 3rd of December so everything is quite hectic!

I have question regarding bras and fittings...
When do we buy a bra for the wedding? Is it before the first fitting so they can tailor the dress to the bra or after, so we'd know what to look for in a bra?

Congratulations on the new house!! The best time to buy your Bra is Before the first fitting, the cup in the dress may need adjusting, and if it's shoulderless, you'll be shocked at how many bras stick up in the back. I bought a bustier (highly reccomend Lace Embrace in vancouver if you're intrested) and I had to have the back cut down to fit under the dress.

Hi. I just ordered an adhesive bra on-line called the NUbra. I am going to bring it to my next fitting. I already know that the chest area of my dress is going to be needing some alterations for I had just had a baby when i was measured (boobs were extra big-from breastfeeding) and now lets just say I need a little help with the lift part lol. Going from a G yes a G to a C does some damage. HOPE I MADE SOME OF YOU LAUGH.

My friend has one and lets just say WOW!!!!. It lifts and makes your boobs look bigger and better. The bra sticks to you: backless, strapless and is wonderful. You can get a similar one at La Vie En Rose and they go for $35.00. I got my on e-bay for $14.00. I can't wait to get it.

Here's a picture of what the bra looks like.
Note it's on a model NOT me.

Cool! I am going to get a bra fitting before my dress fitting in January... Thanks for the advice everyone!

Where is that website you purchase that bra from? I'm going to need something like that as my dress is strapless low back.

Thanks

Elaine, I got the NUbra from Ebay. I don't remember her user name but if you do a search for NuBra lots will come up. That's what I did.
Hope this helps.
