Hi Alexa,
Believe it or not I wore a corset under my wedding gown. In retrospect that was a mistake. You cannot bend, I mean not even a little. Now it does push up what you got real nice, and it holds in the wiggly jiggly pieces in the tummy area well. I made it about halfway through my reception before I ripped that thing off! The corset and the groom are long gone, and life goes on and I have found other things I like much better than a corset and a partner that is so much better.
As for trying corsets if you really love them by all means go for it! Some are a cinch type with ribbon…I think those are easier. The ones that have hook and eye you should get measured for. I would recommend starting with something that is not super stiff to try it. They will do wonders for your posture too, they really pull the shoulders back so that your chest protrudes. They also help to create a waist and hip definition. Be sure and ease into it too. I wore mine for all the fittings and under clothes for a couple of months. I started with a more breathable one first though.
Hugs, Ang
