What sort of bridal outfit should a curvier woman wear so as not to look bigger?

Well if a light colour looks good on you then go for it! it was just a generic idea.

My cousin recently had her nikkah in pakistan and she is about size 12/14 and she actually looked quite slim in her outfit ( in the pics anyway) because the makeup people (goshi in karachi) really contoured her face and set the dupatta to compliment her figure.

where is your wedding ?is it in pakistan?

Im not getting married...i initaly came on here because i was getting my first few rishtas...nothing has come of them since...my parents are getting worried...but thats a whole other thread!
