Your wedding day is one of the most memorable moments of your life. You deserve to feel beautiful, confident, and comfortable—without worrying about where to put your insulin pump. Whether you’re the bride, a bridesmaid, or a guest, finding the right wedding insulin pump solution will help you feel completely at ease.
That’s why we’ve created these expert bridal styling tips to show you how to seamlessly incorporate ShortEase into your wedding-day look and move confidently throughout your celebration.
1. Choose the Right Dress for Your Pump Placement
Wedding dresses come in countless styles, so it’s important to consider how your pump will fit into your overall look. Fortunately, ShortEase is designed to adapt to whatever dress you choose:
✔ A-line and ball gowns – These offer plenty of room for storing your pump in the front thigh pocket without adding bulk.
✔ Mermaid and fitted silhouettes – The inner thigh pocket keeps your pump discreet and smooth under form-fitting gowns.
✔ Dresses with structure – Thicker fabrics, beading, and lace help camouflage any small bumps from your pump. So feel free to use whichever pocket feels most convenient and comfortable!
💡 Tip: No matter which dress style you choose, always try it on with your ShortEase shorts before the big day to ensure the smoothest, most confident fit.
2. Consider Your Tubing Management
Managing your tubing properly is just as important as pump placement. ShortEase makes this easier with thoughtful design features that keep tubing secure and tangle-free.
✔ Use the seam opening – The built-in tubing hole allows you to route the tubing comfortably under your dress.
✔ Opt for a longer infusion set – This gives you more flexibility when placing your pump in either pocket.
✔ Test placement ahead of time – During your dress fitting, experiment with different pump positions to see what works best.
💡 Tip: Worried about tubing catching on your dress fabric? Use a small piece of fashion tape to keep it securely in place and out of the way.
3. Accessorize for Discreet Pump Adjustments
Even on your wedding day, you may need to bolus or check your settings. Luckily, there are simple accessories you can use to make this process discreet and stress-free:
✔ A delicate shawl or wrap – Perfect for covering your hands while you access your pump through the zippered pocket.
✔ A small clutch – Use it to carry a backup infusion set, glucose tabs, or glucagon for emergencies.
✔ ShortEase front thigh pocket – If you use the inner thigh pocket for your pump, the front pocket offers plenty of space for your supplies.
💡 Tip: Assign a trusted bridesmaid or partner to carry any additional diabetes essentials, so you’ll have peace of mind throughout the day.
4. Plan for a Long, Active Day
Your wedding will likely involve hours of standing, moving, dancing, and celebrating. That’s why comfort and security are key. ShortEase is made to stay in place from your first photo to your final dance.
✔ ShortEase won’t slip – Unlike traditional thigh bands, these shorts provide a snug, secure fit that stays put.
✔ Wear-test ahead of time – A few trial runs before your wedding will ensure everything feels perfect, so there are no surprises on the big day.
💡 Tip: Always keep an emergency diabetes kit in the bridal suite with extra supplies—just in case.
