This isn't a post about wedding dresses. In fact, this is a post about everything but wedding dresses. I assume that if you're getting married this spring/summer, you already have your perfect dress all ready to go, so let's look at some plus size bridal items that put a little fun into your nuptials.
Kiyonna's Bridal Boutique has adorable bride-themed tank tops and undies that can be worn as comfy pajamas before or after your big day. You could also wear one of the sparkly tank tops under a jacket for your bachelorette party or bridal shower. I especially like the ones that say "Wifey" and "The Mrs."
Torrid also has a special bridal section with a small selection of dresses for the bride and bridesmaids, accessories and white lingerie. I especially like this embroidered bustier and cheeky short set.
Hips and Curves has a section of plus size bridal lingerie that ranges from very naughty g-strings to nice foundation pieces to wear under your dress.
Avenue has a nicely varied selection of sweet and sexy plus size lingerie, including white lingerie for the bride.
If you're headed for a tropical honeymoon, be sure to check out Old Navy Women's Plus summer vacation checklist for swimwear, coverups, sundresses and comfy warm weather separates. I also like Old Navy for feminine but non-fussy pajamas.
This post is very timely; I've been reconsidering the dress I've purchased for my wedding (I'm getting married next summer). I went with the LB dress that you suggested (the cocktail length one) and am rethinking it because a) it shows my arms and they're not very toned and b) I'm wondering if I should be showing leg or if I should keep 'em covered. I think I'm reconsidering my choice because I'm not feeling confident with my body image (damn!). I love the Kiyonna tanks, they're cute. There are similar items at Etsy.com as well I think.

A little late for me, but it seems like wedding dress-related posts always muster a lot of comments on my blog, as evidenced by a post I made this week on the subject. I passed along a link to this entry for readers still in need of dresses :) Thanks for compiling the info!
