After choosing your wedding gown, your next step is to find the perfect clothes to wear underneath your dress before your first fitting.

There’s a lot to think about when choosing wedding undergarments. And although your new husband will most likely get a peek of what’s under your wedding dress, you’ll want to choose your wedding day panties for their comfort and slimming effect rather than for romantic appeal. Read on for the full scoop.

Photography by Cameron Ingalls - see more at www.cameroningalls.com

I’ll confess: I have an online shopping habit. I’ve spent many an evening pouring over the pages of zappos.com while sipping chardonnay.

My husband has the male version of an internet shopping fetish, which drove him to impulse-purchase a new car on EBay a couple years ago. This is not that unusual in and of itself, but the thing that made it interesting was that the car was located several states away from us. This required him to buy two very expensive airplane tickets for us to pick up his great bargain and drive it all the way home. Practical? Not so much. But he gets points for spontaneity.
