Because this seems to be a topic that has several people hitting the panic button, here is how to pee while wearing your wedding dress:
On arrival at your venue
This ensures that you will not later get the train/back of the dress dirty just by having it touch the floor.
When you need to go
You may now resume your panic about all the other topics for your wedding day.
Haha... you know, I was SO WORRIED about having to pee in my dress, and I guess just from everything going on, I didn't pee (or even think about having to) one time while in my dress. I did, however, RUN to my room to pee directly after the reception.
That is good advice, though!
I was watching 27 dresses last night and I was hoping I wouldn't have to be like them.
ah, yes a very important topic. Thank you for your public service. I have a feeling I will be practicing this in the near future.
Lol this is funny! When I was my friend's bridesmaid a couple months ago, I actually went into the stall with her to help hold her dress up. Let's just say the experience brought us a lot closer, HAHAHA!
Good tips, though I'm still worried... My dress is fairly narrow in cut and I'll have to hold it and... I like to worry.
This made me laugh, but is seriously the most useful thing I read learned today. :)
lol thanks for the tips! Ahh the mental image of how I'm going to pull this off will keep me laughing for DAYS!!
I can check this off the list of things to worry about now :P
I definitely just added this to my favorite topics list. How do those poor brides who haven't heard about Weddingbee manage on their wedding day?!
Love this! I read it to my FI and he thought it was so funny. Thank you!
brilliant! i just wonder how i'm going to pull this off in my parents house. :p
LOL great and very important topic :p Thank GOODNESS I didn't have to pee once I got into my dress because I was so dreading the 27 Dresses moment lol. I don't even pee in front of my husband, but if I had to pee in front of anyone, he'd be the most likely candidate. But you can guess how well that would go over at the wedding, inviting your new hubby to the bathroom to help you pee! lol
Thanks for the PSA! I am so worried about this for the ceremomny portion as our ceremony is at a state park with nice but still a "no plumbing" situation! I really hope I don't have to go! I drink a ton of water and if somone even mentions it, then I have to go, too!
Give one of your bridesmaids a shovel?
I kid, I kid. Just make sure you pee waaaaay before the ceremony. (Of course you already know that. lol)
FiftyFootBride - Ha!Ha! I am actually plotting how long before the ceremony to stop drinking water and will have to warn people not to discuss any type of bathroom activity around me:-)
It's still a nice building with t.p. but the thought of having to go and deal with my sweep train and all... Eee Gads!
lol!
I was just actually contemplating how hard it would be to step out of my dress, pee, then get back in. Something tells me that is destined for failure and would be a big pain in the ass.
Hahaha
I went to a wedding for a friend in May and I happened to be in the bathroom stall when the bride (and her 3 BMs) all went into the stall next to me.
The BMs held up her dress while she went, but she also made them sing 'row row row your boat' so they wouldn't 'hear' her. lol
lol. does she make people in public restrooms sing while she pees all other times? those people hear her pee. :p
girls can be so silly. i'm guilty too. :)
Or just ask bridesmaids to help - it's really not a big deal and you can't see anything while holding up yards of ballgown skirt!
However, beware of over-eager mothers! At my sister's wedding, my mother thought she would be helpful and wipe for her, my sister freaked out, jumped up and we dropped her train in the toilet! Mind you, this was about 5 min. before the ceremony. She was kind of mad at my mom, but I think she forgot as soon as she started down the aisle - and it makes for a great story!
2dBride -- I am so glad you're on weddingbee, because you're seriously one of my favorite posters EVER.
Good advice!
My dress was too big for me to remove the underwear so my sister and I got - very close that night.
AWESOME FREAKIN PSA! THANKS! Its too hot in Miami to wear stockings or garter under my dress however my dress is reasonably big - so there's another duty to pass out to one of my sisters to accompany to the restroom to check for cleanliness and help me out a bit!
this is an amazing post! i've been worrying...my dress has a huge, many layered lace/taffeta/tule train!
Haha this is a great post!
Luckily I didn't have to pee at all while in my dress! We were so busy mingling and stuff that I just didn't think about it. My BM's were shocked that I didn't have to go because I am usually the one who has to go all the time, especially if I have been drinking!
O thank goodness someone posted directions on how to do this.. thanks 2dBride!!!
seriously. that was great. who would have thought you should totally take OFF your underware! duh?! i can just imagine walking around with pee on myself the rest of the night!
I actually had to pee about 3 times while wearing my dress! The first time I brought my sister and my friend in with me. The second time it was just my friend. The third time, my cousin was lucky enough to be standing closest to the bathroom door when no one else was around! I began by asking "Tammi, how much do you love me?"
It was not easy!
I wish this would have been posted before my wedding. I had to relive the 27 dresses moment. Ack!
I had no problem peeing in my dress. I just gathered it all up and sat on the toilet normally while holding it. My MOH was in the bathroom with me the first time I pee-d b/c I thought I'd need help but it was fine.
LMAO!!! I wouldn't have even thought of this! Well, I can tell this much - my mom is going in there with me. I figure she's the only one that's been in that situation with me before, it falls to her now. :)
I had my husband help me the first time....after that I realized I could do it myself!
Peeing in my dress was much less traumatic than anticipated. Actually it was not a big deal at all. Hopefully this makes some of you worry about this less :).
Funny and educational. I always thought my BM's would help me. That's what they are there for, right? 
We got married Tuesday. Yes, I had to pee while wearing the dress. And yes, I managed without assistance. (I had no bridesmaids, and my MOH was my daughter, so I really did not want to involve her.)
Congrats on the wedding, and congrats on peeing by yourself. You're truly an inspiration! :p
(In more ways than just peeing)
@50 hahahahahahaha.... so at first I mis-read your post as "congrats on peeing on yourself" and was like "nooooooo what happened!?"
@2d - I hope I can be as proud by the end of my day. :)
Okay, I came back to this post just to see how your peeing scenario panned out!
Glad to hear all systems were go! :)
haha. this is great. thanks!
