Everyone loves a wedding. And when it's the charming Prince Harry marrying the vivacious Meghan Markle, it's tough not to be just a teeny tiny bit obsessed. And even though there's still some time before the wedding - the couple are slated to say their "I dos" on May 19 - wedding details have already started trickling out. First, we heard that Meghan will formally give up her American citizenship to become a British royal and will be baptised and confirmed by the Church of England before the big day. And now, as recently as yesterday, sketches of what are rumoured to be one of the options for her wedding dress were all over the Internet. Naturally, now that we know what finds favour with Meghan, we had to indulge our fashion fantasies and come up with our own list of potential dresses.

Here's what we already know about the gown that will be: it needs to have long sleeves (it's a time-honoured tradition among royal brides), and it needs to prominently feature the Lily of the Valley (a flower from Princess Diana's wedding bouquet) in its design. And all of this needs to be done in keeping with Meghan's signature personal style - subtle, but whimsical, romanticism.

Princess Diana's influence on the wedding is unmissable, given that Meghan's engagement ring held two diamonds from Princess Di's collection and that the Lily of the Valley is being so cleverly woven into her gown's design.

After gleaning all this information, we can't help but think that ultimately, Meghan's choice will be a high neckline - delicate, regal and covered up, a style favoured by most for traditional ceremonies.

Here's a take by Paloma Blanca for Meghan Markle's gown, playing with an illusion neckline, a smart way to cover up and still look a tad bit sexy.

A tradition started by Queen Victoria in 1840, all royal brides so far have been seen in British designers, but since Meghan is clearly choosing to write her own rules, here's yet another gown, this one designed by Hayley Paige.

Or, for all we know, she might follow sister-in-law Kate Middleton's footsteps after all and wear an Alexander McQueen creation.

Whichever direction she ultimately goes, we can't wait to see her in a wedding gown. And we have no doubts it's going to be a wedding to remember.
