More and more bridal companies are making dresses specially for pregnant women. This might have a lot to do with the recent rise in shotgun weddings in the UK. Says Daily Mail,

Last year, an estimated 20,000 brides in Britain were pregnant on their wedding day, accounting for 10 per cent of all first-time brides under the age of 45.

And if soaring sales at maternity bridal boutiques are anything to go by, more pregnant women than ever are opting to wear a traditional white dress.

What’s this about? Is it a generational thing? Is it a regional thing? Or maybe society as a whole has just become more accepting of pregnant brides-to-be. Expectantbrides.com is even devoted to the pregnant bride.

What do you think?

    At least they are getting married instead of bringing children into the world out of “wedlock”. With the couple getting married before the child is born shows they want respect for their family. The will have the last name of the father. The child will not be shamed among friends. We all know how cruel children can be. Especially when they over hear grown ups speaking badly about one another. Getting married does eliminate alot pressure for the children as they grow up.

    Of course it would be nice for things to follow after an engagement, wedding, but life is not perfect. We are not perfect. The world is not perfect. If it was there would be peace on earth.
