Back in our mother's day, weddings were ALL about the dress, and the shoes were simply something that peeked out from beneath the hem, but nowadays we know better.

Oh, so much better.

The moment we're done gushing over the gown, our attention moves to the bride's shoe as we gauge whether she went for a pop of colour, killer heel or – dare we say it – iconic red sole.

And while we'd totally consider ourselves footwear aficionados, we obviously pale in comparison to the shoe queen that is Carrie Bradshaw – Sorry! We mean Sarah Jessica Parker.

So, we're totally with these three brides who fell all over themselves when they realised that the shoe specialist on hand during their dress fitting was none other than our favourite New Yorker.

Having launched a new shoe range for brides, Sarah Jessica treated the three overwhelmed brides-to-be to their very own Cinderella moment as she crouched in front of them and lovingly matched the perfect heel to their chosen gown.

Ladies, just imagine!

Planning a wedding? You have to think about the invites, the cake, the venue, the band, the food, the photographer, the church and countless other things but for most brides finding the perfect wedding dress sits firmly at the top of that never-ending list. 

Shopping for the perfect dress is pretty much a wedding rite of passage. You gather your mammy and your trusted bridesmaids to sip champagne and try to find the perfect gown before heading out for a boozy brunch. And we all know that we may just HAVE to repeat the process… numerous times. 

But what if you would prefer to have the dress dilemma sorted in the click of a button and for just couple of hundred euro…

Well ASOS has the now given you that option. The trusted online retail giant has announced the launch of it's first line of bridal gowns. Notoriously ahead of the fashion curve, ASOS is aiming to sell designer looking gowns for a fraction of the price. 

Due to be available online from April 2016, official prices have not ye been released but according to Who What Wear all the dresses will cost less than €400! Now THAT is a bargain.

The styles range from more traditional silhouettes (lacy long sleeves, a-lines and trumpet styles) to more modern looks (short cocktail style dresses and Grecian goddess style numbers). And with a price tag that will leave a lot of spare cash in the big day budget, these dresses are definitely winning us over. 

We can't wait to get a peek at the full range but for now, just need to find a husband…

His previous relationship with Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart was very much conducted under the spotlight – so understandably Robert Pattinson, 29, is seriously guarded when it comes to his private life now.

Indeed, his proposal of marriage to new love FKA Twigs was only confirmed in April – when rapper T Pain leaked the news inadvertently. 

So – unlikely as it seems – when the musician shared a snap of a stunning white, beaded and lace dress on her Instagram account last night, fan theories went into overdrive – with some even suggesting that the stars' wedding was taking place today.

Others reckoned the Big Day had already taken place, with FKA Twigs – real name Tahliah Debrett Barnett – posting the photo to confirm the happy news.

"Omg! Wedding dress!?" said one. "Could she be trying on her wedding dress?" suggested another. "Omg they married?" asked a third.

However, it transpires the 27-year-old English singer was simply… getting her hair cut.

Say what?!

Yes, while showing off the dress – which does look remarkably bridal – she wrote: "Inches and scissors never hurt anybody," and on closer inspection, she is indeed sporting shorter tresses.

Earlier this month, Robert and his mum were seen at one of FKA Twigs's gigs in Manchester.

The couple has so far refused to even hint as to when their nuptials might take place – meaning fans will have to continue speculating for a while yet.

And whenever the happy couple does indeed tie the knot, we can be assured that fashionista Twigs's dress (if we ever get to see it!) is going to be spectacular.
