You’d never know it from looking at fashion magazines, but more than half of American women wear size 14 or larger clothes. Yet even though we big beautiful gals are in the majority, we still starve ourselves trying to look like something we’re not.

Now this whole ‘thin is in’ thing is officially ‘out’ for our family. We don’t mean we’re giving up healthy habits. We’ve learned how to accept our large physiques for their unique beauty. It simply took a major family upset for us all to learn this lesson.

It all started when our cousin and her sweetheart decided to get married. Since we live close to one another, she asked almost everyone to be in her wedding party (and we’re big in numbers as well as in body size). This joyous prospect started to sour, though, when our cousin became a bridezilla over the issue of how to lose fat to get ready for the wedding.

Our fights over diet and exercise were reaching nuclear proportions when the bride-to-be’s mother had her fill of it. She came up with a plan to save both the wedding and repair our family ties.

Our aunt consulted with a good friend of hers who operates a bridal shop in town. The dress shop owner said she saw our kind of problem all the time. The best solution, she told our aunt, was to show the bride-to-be how a plus size wedding dress could be the perfect solution to her worries about looking fabulous on her wedding day. Once the bride-to-be was convinced, the bridesmaids would have an easier time choosing gowns as well, she told our aunt.

Then Marge got all the ladies in the family together on the pretext of a gathering to look at party jewelry. We looked at jewelry all right, but she also showed everyone her friend’s catalog with those stunning bridal gowns in them. Celia couldn’t believe her eyes, and neither could the rest of us.

The amazing thing is that Auntie’s scheme worked! In fact, we had a ball looking over those beautiful pictures, taking our body measurements and deciding what type of dresses looked best on which shape. Almost before we knew it, we had outfitted the bride, the bridesmaids and the mother of the bride in gorgeous gowns!

The great wedding dress battle had a happy ending, just like a good romance should. The bride and her attendants walked proudly down the church aisle in wedding gowns that fitted us perfectly and made us all look like fairy tale princesses (large economy size, of course). Our aunt’s scheme really saved the wedding day.
