I don't know about you, but we think there's been a lot of talk about Carrie Underwood's engagement to Senator Mike Fisher, and of course, the ever pressing question of "what kind of wedding dress will she wear?" One online article had this to say:


"Ideally, her wedding gown will reflect Underwood’s best qualities. So, something down-home but a tad regal too. Maybe a one-shoulder design — glamorous, yet middle-of-the-road. Then again, it's possible she'll go for something frothy and fun, typifying her body-conscious generation."


How's that for decisive?
