    Yeah girls, my seamstress had to add some fabric to the neckline of my dress because I had porn cleavage going on...now, its a very acceptable level of church cleavage! :)

    Did anyone else have to do this with a neckline that just simply showed too much?!

    I think my man would cry if I covered them up like that...maybe that is why we aren't doing a church ;)

    But then again he has been known to just grab them in public so I'm not sure if I have an appropriate opinion (even tho I shoo him away) :)

    I have a lot of cleavage and have a sweetheart neckline so the girls are going to be out in full force, but then again they usually are.

    I guess what I'm trying to say, is I'm not adding extra fabric :)

    I feel a little too "on display" anytime i'm in church because my boobs are just super in your face. DH calls them porn star boobs....thanks for implying they're fake. Sigh. I probably woulda just let them be in their glory, LOL. But yeah there is a line between appropriate cleavage and porn star super cleavage =].

    You gotta do what you gotta do! lol, for real, though, I feel your pain. I looked down today at dinner and realized that I probably should wear a tank top under the new shirt I wore today... le sigh, sometimes I'd like to not worry about it!

    What, you don't want to be slutty bride on your wedding day? Shame! lol

     

    I always laugh so hard at the bridal ads where they have GIANT FAKE BOOBS and are total slut-brides. I'm sure you weren't in that category though, madam. :p

    @Recessionista - I'm sporting A cups, so I feel your pain! The thought of a lowcut dress terrifies me, because usually when I wear lowcut stuff, it either 1) doesn't stay where it ought to, because there's nothing there to hold it in place, or 2) ends up showing off my bellybutton anytime my posture isn't great, because there's nothing there to block the view.

    Sigh. I'll be looking into dresses I can bend over in without exposing myself. Like, ones with straps and necklines and lots of coverage.

    I'm considering covering up.  I really don't want to alter my dress that much though.  I like it the way it is.  I'm going to wait until all the other alterations are done before I decide to put some netting over the cleavage.  I'm still hoping I won't need it.

    Try having nice, decent church cleavage in your BM dress, trying it on several times with no issues. ...A week later you throw on the dress on her wedding day and holy gazungas! It's obviously that time of the month, because where did these bad boys come from?!

    Yeah, felt SLIGHTLY guilty sporting the porn cleavage, but what can you do? Luckily the bride thought it was hilarious. PHEW!

    @daydream: I've stuffed w/ those fake silicone "cutlets" (blech!) Sometimes a small chest has its advantage because I can get away with more dresses & clothing... but yeah. Cleavage is non-existant in my world too!! I'm looking forward to pregnancy so I can have a big boob experience for once in my life lol.

    I have a feeling no matter what I do, I will be the slutty bride, I've been called porn star boobs as well.  It just doesn't' matter, fabric over them and OMG those are sweater puppies, v-neck and holy cow it's feeding time.  I've just accepted that they are out there for the world to see.

    Even in a football jersey I have issues with them. Unless I want be sporting a sports bra and even then I can't see over them.  But can you imagine a lovely huge sports bra underneath a delicate dress? LOL

    I've just accepted that the boobs are going to prevalent in the pictures and the day.

    I almost didn't buy "THE Dress" because it had a v-neck, but I decided in the end I had to have it. Then I considered having it altered but it didn't seem like the girls were falling out that bad, so I took a chance and let them go free.  Most of the wedding photos came back with just a teensy bit of cleavage, but for a couple I was like "Whoa! Someone probably should have mentioned I was flashing the preacher." :)  Oh well.

    Corgitales...I LOLOLOL when I read that..."my boobs can not be contained"....seriously LOL. I am a DDD cup (went from a D to DDD when I nursed my twins and it never went back) Your post made me think of the Borg from the Star Trek movies "resistance is futile...your boobs can not be contained...resistance is futile". :)

    I'll tell you what, given this massive undergarment, my BM and I have nicknamed "the equipment", it's got the girls as well contained as they can be, but good grief...there they are still front and center. BOING! Right there, despite adding some fabric-very necessary not only to cover up the massive about of bubbies (Housewives of NJ we have to thank for that!), but also to have enough fabric to cover the strap of said equipment since it's like industrial strength lycra!

    This thread is cracking me up!

    I'm having a nice Catholic wedding and the wedding coordinator is legendary for being a nazi.  She actually told me (keep in mind we've only spoken on the phone) that "if my dress is too low cut they will give me something to cover myself up with".  Nice.  I'm a 34DD, so shopping for a dress that doesn't give me porn cleavage has been interesting.  The dress I picked out will have to be ordered with a little extra on top to keep everything nice and appropriate.

    @liztwintz- oh no! now i'm scared! I have Ds right now, if they grow to DDDs I'll cry, they're already so big! haha Of course, I had Bs in hs before I gained the college 20 and then the law school 40 (would be funnier if it weren't true...) :) Hopefully when lose some weight they'll ummm deflate. A bit.

    if there is nothing you can do to avoid uber boobs, even after adding fabric... just rock the look!

    thank goodness my dress is the corsette style because my girls will be locked and loaded come the wedding day. no way i am letting them escape anywhere!

    ugh there is a deoderant commercial where a bride is lying in bed, and the guy is all cuddling up next to her, basically looks like he is about to smell her armpits... any ways her boobs are basically in her face they are so fake and high up.

    @linztwinz OMG I'm terrified of that happening to me so I am right there with you Corgitales! I'm a 38G and I half joke with Mr Holiday that I'll need a wheelbarrow for my boobs when I'm pregnant! No jokes!

    I was a late bloomer but by Highschool I had DDD! Then they just kept growing... ugh. At least I got voted: Biggest Rack in my school :P

    Seriously the boobs will not be contained either so I'm just rocking a corset allll the way.

    You know, sometimes, unless you're wearing a turtleneck, you just cannot cover them up. And even in a turtleneck.....they still pop up. Yeah, I'm not getting married under a house of god so know worries here. 'll be sporting the tasteful cleavage. And yes, fabulous thread title.

    I had my dress modified A LOT, I need to do a before and after post.  But seriously they were coming out EVERYWHERE (front & sides) before I got alterations.  They still snuck out in a few of the pics, but we weren't in a church - phew!

    I figure as long as nobody goes a-popping out of your dress and they are contained, even if there's cleavage, you're probably ok. Avoid the quad-boob look. I have facebook comments on my photos that say "Holy boobs, EJS!" so uh, obviously i was out there. Oh well! If you try to cover them up too much, sometimes you just look really silly and "thick" up top, versus rocking what you have. I do hate when people wear super tight tops so they get the shelf boob action going on, a la the 1500's. It's so icky looking.

    Ahahah! My seamstress had to add, in her words, "extra large bra cups - now balance your butt" to my dress.

    Yup - I'm rockin' the A's and needed a little MORE oomph, I guess!

    Girls...I thought about ya'll!!! I had what I thought was going to be my last fitting early this evening, but there will be some more adjustments and hopefully, tomorrow will be my last one. She was pinning some things on the neckline right at my cleavage and I just burst out laughing. Know that the entire hive was in my thoughts!!! ROTFL!!!!!
