second wedding dress for plus size bride

I will be 38 when I get married for the second time in my life. I will also be about a size 12/14. I am a DD as well.

all the dresses I see so far are either too drab or too fancy.

so how fancy can I go and still be appropriate. I hate lace and laa tee daa fashions. I like sleek and elegant, but my size kind of contradicts that.

My first marriage I wore satin off the shoulder, sweep train, no beads or lace.. just really elegant and nice.

just no suits, no trains, no gaga.. point me somewhere

So I posted on the wrong forum.. this is difficult..there are two forums.. I was going to say.. I have come up with an idea for allowing myself to wear a wonderful fun dress.. and really enjoy my second wedding.. my fiance loves the idea.. we can have a Renassaince/Medieval wedding, I will wear a maids dress..or a poets dress (still deciding which) and he will dress more of a scoundrel/pirate/swashbuckler swordsman.. and we will make a day of it.. the more I think of it.. the more excited I get.

This way I can wear whatever I feel pretty in, whether it is too formal or not formal enough.

I welcome any extra ideas and thoughts.
