Maternity Fashions for the Bride and Her Bridesmaids
A few months ago I wrote a post about maternity wedding dresses, but what if your bridesmaid or maid-of-honor is pregnant? Many bridesmaid dress companies make a maternity version of their popular designs, but today with many brides giving their bridesmaids the freedom to select their own dress your ‘maids may be at a loss of where to go shopping.
If you are just dictating the dress color and formality, you may want to also give your girls an idea of where to start looking – local dress shops, department stores, etc… But if one of your bridesmaids is pregnant, she may need some extra help in finding a gown that is not only comfortable, but also fits the look and feel of your wedding.
I attended a press preview for the maternity clothing stores – A Pea in the Pod, Mimi Maternity and Motherhood. Each store has a line of evening wear gowns for moms-to-be.
The two dresses featured above are from A Pea in the Pod. Here's a link to their evening wear collection.
And if you are a pregnant bride, they also carry maternity wedding dresses:

If you find other great designers that carry maternity dresses for brides or bridesmaids please let us know!
