That's good to hear! I hope your first convention is a success. They are indeed incredibly fun. Most of my real life friends are people I've met via conventions. (I also met my boyfriend at a convention. Haha.)
Couples costumes are cute as heck! You guys are gonna look great together.
If you end up not being able to order the binder and are in a time pinch, one more thing I can suggest is sports bras. You can buy them a bit smaller than you would for normal purposes to get a bit of compression, or you can even pin them in the back to be a bit tighter. It won't be perfect, but you'll be wearing a couple layers of clothing so you might be able to get away with it. But the binder is definitely also a worthy investment if you're thinking you might be cosplaying more male characters in the future.
