I'm overwhelmed..not sure where and how much I should be spending. I need a bustier and probably just some shapewear for the day to avoid any panty lines. I'm going to switch in to my wedding night set after the reception before we leave...

So where should I look Bees?

Well colorful...The amount you spend on undergarments for your big day can vary widely...manufacturer, fabrics, and even specialty sizing can affect the price of a bustier quite a bit. Generally speaking the 60 to $100.00 range is fairly common for a bustier.

Shapewear panties, such as Spanx can run 30 to 60, depending on the style. A good seamless, nude pantie with some tummy contol will run 20 to 45. I did a quick Google search for your town and found a couple of reviewed independent shops...just search in "Lingerie in Vergennes Vermont". If you have never purchased specialty undergaments before, I suggest a lingerie boutique. They can help you find the proper size, cut, and fabric. Good Luck!

Thanks for the advice!! Although the wedding is in VT I'm actually in NJ so I'll have to do a search like that. I spend a lot of time trying to find online a bustier that I liked, but I realized that I guess I can do with just a strapless and maybe some seamless pantie...I found a strapless bra that's really pretty this week so now I'm just out to see what I'll wear in the bottom. I was curious to find out if more brides were just wearing nothing, strapless, bustiers. Thanks again :)
