Hi,

There's a pump holder (for want of a better expression) called a "thigh thing" that fits like a garter and holds your pump on the inside of your thigh so it doesn't show. I think some of the pump companies carry it and other diabetes supply online retailers. Good for dancing and photos but... I'm picturing the wedding dinner, you under the table hiking up your skirt to find your pump so you can bolus. I think you'd have to eyeball the carbs and then hit the washroom!
