The wedding will be in September. I ideally would like to be at 135 by then, but honestly I'd be okay at 150, then just try to continue losing. Right now I am at 175..I can fit into a 14..but we have to order our ddresses soon. I am thinking or ordering a 12, then just get it taken in before the wedding to whatever size I am at. I am scared to order a size less than a 10..maybe I am doubting myself lol.

    You can always get a dress taken in, but it is very hard to make it any bigger.

    I'd order a size twelve like you were going to, then take it in however much you need to.

    keep in mind those dresses are often several sizes different than what they say! Mom used to work at a bridal shop. Woman would break down all the time cause the size zeros were to small and they had to get like a 2 or something! they run small often times so maybe keep that in mind.

    I'm facing the same issue! I'm in a wedding in October and am worried to order my dress soon!

    I ordered my wedding dress in the size I was in at the time (a 22). My seamstress had to take it in to a size 16. These women can work miracles if you get the right one. Ask around for the best seamstress in town and paying the extra money to get it to fit you will be worth it in the end... and it feels AWESOME when you tell people that the seamstress had to take your dress in 4 sizes!!!
