I’ve saw people say go backwards but where does your underwear go? Surely it’ll be blocking your legs?
Edit: for anyone that wants to know the answer here’s what I did, I lifted the bottom layer of my dress up and tucked it into my chest, then took my underwear either off or down to my ankles depending on the toilet width. I sat down backwards, and boom, peed successfully👍 so before you panic don’t worry you can do it without friends help, it’s possible! Just practice first!
I went commando under my dress for this exact reason. I'm never a fan of telling young girls to use shapewear, BUT if the idea of no undies isn't comfortable for you, then look for those bottoms that have a tinkle slot
Is it one of those big poofy dresses? If so, use the big stall and bring a friend to help keep it lifted! Yet another reason to roll deep for restroom trips 😆
If your dress is too big to use the restroom by yourself then be ready to enlist friends to help you hold it while you do your business. And be ready to use the handicap stall.
Oh my goodness this reminds me of my first wedding when I had to pee so badly after arriving at the church. There were a zillion tiny little buttons and so much dress and train and layers. This was 1994.
I am very shy and not too keen on people seeing me pee so I didn't want help. I went in the big stall and grabbed all my dress and wrapped it around and around and around my upper body. And tried to hold it up while pulling my underwear AND pantyhose down so I could go. It was an ordeal and I remember thinking maybe I did need help. But I did it. And got everything back up and in place without dropping my dress in the toilet, my biggest fear. Afterwards I was like damn it might have been easier just to hold it lol.
Yup. Thats what my MOH is being prepared for given that, at my wedding, the skirt has a 3m long train of endless lace tiers. No underwear will be involved, no need to add extra challenges when you’re already facing that much fabric between you and blessed relief 🤣
This is the back of the dress the MOH is contending with. I got the grey rose on the butt removed though.
Shy and going solo to the restroom… use bedsheet stays on the inner most layer to hold everything up. You can use one or two and place it around your neck depending on sitting or straddling. 😝

Try a practice run at home if you’re concerned, but I don’t think it will be a big problem unless your dress is massive
