    The wedding is in June, and the temps here will likely soar into the 90s. The dress is heavy, and it is satin. I, unfortunately, am a sweaty person. I cannot help this. I put my dress on for 15 minutes the other day any my legs were already hot. And, um, sweaty (eww, I know, I know).

    Does anyone have any suggestions? I was thinking of wearing capri-length cotten legging underneath. What did/would you ladies do????? Help!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yikes i dont know if I would add any more layers underneath!! I had a satin gown in Georgia, in August - it was almost 100 degrees at the time of our ceremony (6 PM) and I had sweat running down my legs and my back under my dress. I just didnt care!

    Whenever I tried on my dress, my legs started to sweat instantly.  It was about 75 on my wedding day and we were in direct sunlight, but it didn't seem to bother me

    One of the bees in another thread suggested spray deorderant for your legs.

    I wouldn't wear anything underneath, that would make you hotter!! You could try some of those super strong deodorants like certain dri a good while before the wedding and make sure you don't get a rash.  Then, the day before/day of but that stuff on the main places you sweat and I promise you won't!

    I had an organza dress, but my wedding day was 100 freaking degrees.  I used a little deodorant and a little bodyglide down there, like runners use to help with chaffing.  That said, I was still a hot mess by the time the reception started up.
