* Brittany's wedding dress malfunction in ''ComicBook/GoldDigger''. As a were-cheetah, she planned to marry in her lovely, spotted, eight-foot-tall furry form. The dressmaker, apparently never having seen Brittany, sized the dress for human proportions instead, somehow overlooking fitting sessions or phone verifications. Her barbarian grandmother literally forged her a proper Barbarian-tribe substitute dress: traditional Valkyrie-ish armor. Just when it looked as though Brittany would actually have to wear that, her arch-mage dad conjured a magical wedding dress out of a dream: perfect in every way. She was, of course, overjoyed.

* As detailed in [[https://youtu.be/LbPw9AlVKVM?si=BLti85IBsvZDysrF this video]], the fairytale-style wedding dress became most popular in TheEighties, with the 1981 wedding of Princess Diana inspiring many brides and bridal fashion designers to copy her iconic ruffled dress. 1980s wedding gowns typically had GiantPoofySleeves, big Victorian-style skirts, long trains, and were adorned with ruffles, lace, and [[GemEncrusted gems]].

* ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'': Bella wears one in ''Breaking Dawn'' when she marries Edward. In [[TheFilmOfTheBook the film adaptation]], she gets to wear ''two'' (one of them is worn in a dream sequence). Her official wedding dress is form-fitting yet flares out at the bottom to create a long train; in the movie the back of the dress also has a translucent section edged with lace. She also wears a floor-length veil. Alice says it's early 1900s vintage but with some modern updates. The dress Bella wears in the dream sequence is a strapless ballgown-type dress with a skirt layered in floaty fabrics and lots of embroidery, though in this case it goes from fairytale to nightmare, with [[BloodSplatteredWeddingDress the dress getting covered in blood]].

* Fanfic/KhaosOmega has only deployed this once minus the sleeves. As this is a strapless complete bridal gown designed for Anise Azeat's true form deployed at the end of chapter 4 in 'Amethyst Beginnings' it serves as a reminder for Anise of the fact Soul Bonds essentially mean the two linked parties are already married. (Jet, upon seeing her wearing it, chooses that moment to propose to her, which she accepts, firing off a massive amount of golden light that due to the gown allows the two to become truly married without an actual wedding ceremony).

** During the events of Khaos' 'Galaxy Angel II Retold' trilogy, specifically the third leg, it's revealed the gown in question was designed by Kandyce Azeat (no relation to Anise in 2124 despite both girls' identical maiden names). Kandyce herself has a particular thing for brides (due to a combination of being based on a bridal version of a Flower Knight and her family having been in the wedding planning business for centuries before her birth).
** From joining the Rainbow Angels in 2197 to the expansion of 2738, Kandyce exclusively wore these when not using an illusion ability. Partially justified due to being the Alpha of a Rainbow Angel subset requiring bridal heels; 2738 moved her to the main branch's 'Prime' roster.
** Once Rainbow Angel subdivisions became a thing, Kandyce decided to theme hers entirely around brides by outright mandating anyone in her subdivision's dimension wear such dresses at all possible times. The second half of a three-month vacation in 2851 reveals it even applies to allowed visitors from the Rainbow Angels (a possibility Anise, the visitor in question in 2851 as she was who Kandyce was on that vacation with, anticipated by opting to have both spent the entire three months as brides).
