Standing in the line at the groceries the other day, we finally saw it: pictures of Carrie Underwood's wedding dress in the current issue of People magazine. All last week we've been reading about the Monique Lhuillier chantilly lace creation, but had yet to lay eyes on the dress itself. Instead, we filled our time speculating on the style of wedding dress she would choose - check out our predictions to see if we were close!


Carrie ended up choosing was a romantic and dreamy creation, with bustier style top and a skirt with hundreds of tiered layers.

To our eye, Carrie's wedding dress is a little bit princess, a little bit fanciful and a whole lot of drama - did you see the skirt? If you covet Carrie's dress, but don't quite have Carrie's budget, we've pulled together some amazing budget friendly options.
