I do, I do, I do....

Today marks the 2 week countdown for the Royal Wedding of Prince William and Catherine Middleton at Westminster Abbey... and as every bride (or for that matter every lady) knows the wedding dress is always one of the main pieces of completing the fairytale wedding.  There are many speculations of who Kate will be wearing, but here are a few choices I would love to see the Bride in.

1. Romona Keveza - I love the lightweight feel and flowyness of this dress - the lack of structure is  something we don't typically see Kate in.
2. Lazaro - This gown evokes a ladylike silhouette, but still feels young
3. Jim Hjelm - A little more structured then the above dresses, but would show off her figure  perfectly
4. McCaffrey Haute Couture - again the mermaid silhouette will compliment Kate's figure, but this dress gives her a bit of an attitude... in a good way
5. Vera Wang - what bride doesn't dream of wearing Vera on their big day, this dress has the structure Kate is known to love, but also a bit of free flowing softness on the bottom
6. Monique Lhuillier - the pleating and gathering on this dress is to die for, the sweetheart neckline will draw all eyes up to Kate's beautiful face - which I'm sure will be adorned with some crown jewels
7. Pnina Tornai - very Avant Garde, this dress (minus headpiece and gloves) would be a show stopper for Kate, and feed the fashion lover inside... this would be completely unexpected
8. Ian Stuart - an homage to Queen Victoria and what a whimsical gown this is - definitely fit for Royalty

And the winner is....# 6 Monique Lhuillier
