I’m having a destination wedding. My dress just came in and it’s huge, not size wise for my body but volume. Big ass a-line dress, and much poofier than the sample I tried on. How do I travel with this? Can I carry it on? It’s the size of like three suit bags. Help!

I also am facing the same issue !! I dug Into it and the knot says don’t check it but take it on the plane with you. Pay to be in a earlier boarding group so you for sure have space for it

Reach out to the airline and let them know you’re traveling with a wedding dress. If you book first class you’ll be more likely to get closet space. If you book economy, they’ll at least know and try to accommodate. Bring a steamer.

This is what I was going to suggest but it may get very wrinkled. Make sure you bring a steamer.

You might have to fold it so get a mini travel steamer just in case
