I am 7 weeks with baby no 2. I already have a big belly - not sure if it is bloat or too much chocolate over Christmas! My sister is getting married when I am 17 weeks. I will be too small for maternity dresses I think, but will have definite belly/bulge, so will be quite limited with non maternity stuff. I also hate my legs, so prefer maxi length. Its proving quite hard to find a suitable dress.

I found this.

which I would probably wear with a black faux fur bolero.

This is the bridesmaid dresses

Are they too similar in style/colour?
 
Your dress is lovely, (I love maxi dresses) but I think get it in a different colour to stop clashing with the maids.
 
It is quite similar, maybe ask your sister?
Have you tried Lightinthebox.com they have lots of floaty dresses like this and they make made to measure if needed.
 
Yeah, I asked her and she doesn't mind at all. Its more that other people might think I am trying to be part of the bridal party.
 
Oh don't worry about them! As long as you feel comfortable and your sister is ok with it.
 
At 17 weeks, even with a larger belly, any maxi should do. If its worrying you, you could try find something else? But if she has seen the dress and has no issue, then there is no reason to worry :flower:

Although personally, if it were me, I'd find something else.
