A SubTrope of PimpedOutDress (which means some examples will be lifted from that).

* Clarice's wedding dress in ''Lupin III: TheCastleOfCagliostro''. Former princess Sayako of Japan liked it so much that [[TheRedStapler she had a real-world one made for her wedding dress]].

* Clarice's wedding dress in ''Lupin III: TheCastleOfCagliostro''. The current Empress of Japan liked it so much that [[TheRedStapler she had a real-world one made for her wedding dress]].

A fancy wedding dress with an old-fashioned style of skirt (usually full length and bell-shaped), and plenty of trimmings (such as pearls, flowers, lace, GiantPoofySleeves, a long train, a large veil, etc.). After all, what's a WeddingDay without some CostumePorn?

* In the ''MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' episode "The Ticketmaster," Rarity imagines herself marrying Princess Celestia's nephew while wearing one of these (with a rather long train), despite being a unicorn. [[http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg78/evalana/blog/mlpfim_ep0319.png Pic here]]

Name comes from the term "fairytale wedding", which is meant to evoke old-fashioned grandeur and elegance (look for the newlyweds to leave in a horse drawn carriage), which includes the dress.

It isn't immune to being ImpossiblyTackyClothes, if either the bride has little taste or she is forced to wear such a dress. It also isn't immune from being DoomedNewClothes or a BloodSplatteredWeddingDress, unless it's a live action work and the dress is too expensive to wreck.

* Erin's dress in the ''{{Daria}}'' episode "I Don't".

* Yuna's would-be wedding dress in ''FinalFantasyX'' counts, despite the [[ShowgirlSkirt atypical cut]] of the skirt it is huge, fancy, and looks extremely expensive. Also subverts the "fairytale" aspect, as [[spoiler:the groom at this wedding is years older than her, an EvillerThanThou DarkMessiah with a [[HalfHumanHybrid freakish appearance]] whom she deeply does ''not'' want to marry...oh, and also? He's '''''[[{{Squick}} dead.]]''''']]

* Yuna's would-be wedding dress in ''FinalFantasyX'' might count, despite the atypical cut of the skirt.

A fancy wedding dress with an old-fashioned style of skirt (usually full length and bell-shaped), and plenty of trimmings (such as pearls, flowers, lace, GiantPoofySleeves, a long train from either the skirt or veil, etc.). After all, what's a WeddingDay without some CostumePorn?

** In [[Series/XMen the first cartoon]], he dress in the first wedding (it's a long story) fit this even more.
