Fun Fact: Approximately 1/3 of all engagements occur between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day. Even more fun fact: it's officially wedding dress shopping season! What better way to stock your Pinterest dress board than with images of celeb-inspired styles? We've found all the best options for every kind of fashion forward fiancé.

The Classic Bride: We're not surprised that Taylor Swift is our go-to beauty for quintessential bride style. This Reem Acra stunner makes her look like a fairytale princess come to life. We can envision this cream and crystal gown anywhere from a Scottish castle to a Manhattan hotel ballroom.

The Sexy Bride: On the absolute opposite end of the spectrum is Kim Kardashian in this hot lacy two-piece. We can't think of a better look for an impromptu Vegas "I Do." Though, the future Mrs. Kanye West's curves are required to make this cropped top and pencil skirt work so well.

The Modern Bride: Our jaws dropped when we saw Claire Danes on the Emmy's red carpet in this ivory sparkler. The Armani Privé design is exactly the kind of look we can envision on a chic, urban bride celebrating her big day in a pristine loft space overlooking a city skyline (aka our dream wedding...)

The Gatsby Bride: Art deco and pale pink are the two biggest trends in wedding design, making Vanessa Hudgen's birthday gown a perfect choice for the 1920's lover. The plunging neckline on this Maria Lucia Hohan design could be raised for a more demure look, but we say the long white gloves and fur stole stay! This vintage style could work in any venue, but a classic Rhode Island mansion would be ideal.

Let the planning begin! And by planning, we obviously mean shopping.
