Avril Lavigne has her wedding dress already picked out.

"I sure do!" the bride-to-be beamed yesterday at the Billboard Music Awards at the MGM in Las Vegas. "That was the first thing."

Lavigne and Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger announced their engagement last August just a month after they began dating.

"I got a single coming out and a record coming out and planning a wedding," Lavigne said. "Of course [Chad] has been really involved. He's also been really cool with just letting me kinda taking the wedding in the direction I want to take it in."

Most importantly, they're having a lot of fun. "We want it to be unique and special and we it to be a very big event but at the same time it's small and it's just close friends and close family," Lavigne said.

Kroeger, however, knows he has to be careful about saying too much about the nuptials. "I sit back and I take a lot of the things that are presented to me, and I look at them on paper, and when I'm asked my opinion, I offer it very gently," he said. "That's the smartest thing I can possibly do because that big day is not about me. That big day is about her."
