Vanessa Hudgens Plans Wedding Day Dress

Despite being single after her breakup with Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens is looking ahead to her wedding day. She has even chosen a designer for her wedding dress.

As Hudgens told People Magazine, "I want [Marchesa] to dress me for my wedding. [Their] lace work just blows my mind. Anyone would be lucky to have a Marchesa dress in their wedding."

Hudgens' comment has sparked quite a debate among readers. Some readers argued it was pointless to plan a wedding or choose a dress when she didn't even have a fiance. Wrote one girl, "She must be so desperate! I mean I have a crush on this one boy in my grade but that doesn't mean that I am going to put a wedding dress on all because I like him. That's telling him that I like him so much but I just like him a little."

Another male reader suggested women needed to get over the whole princess/fairytale wedding fantasy. "Every woman/girl needs to get off the princess/marriage fantasy kick. It's BS, it's designed to get people to spend money, and it screws up women's perceptions of their self worth unless they have a big rock, dress and wedding."

Yet other readers were quick to defend Hudgens. Many readers argued it was perfectly normal for young women to fantasize about your future wedding. Wrote one reader, "I don't even care for Vanessa Hudgens, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with knowing who you want to design your wedding dress. If one of your girlfriends brought up who they want to design their future wedding dress over a cup of coffee, even if they're single, you wouldn't think twice! 100% normal, and absolutely NOT desperate at all."

Whether single or not, choosing a wedding dress can be a significant decision because there are so many factors to consider. As Martha Stewart Living points out, it can take four to six months to have a dress made, sometimes longer if the dress has intricate handiwork. It's also important to think of the logistics such as what time of day, what time of year, and the setting of the wedding.

For those who visit bridal shops, OurMarriage.com recommends that once you find the perfect gown, buy it and stop looking. If you know what you like, and know what feels right to you, then there's no need to second-guess yourself. Many brides find that perfect dress but hold off buying with the intentions of comparison shopping. When they return, they find that the dress has been sold, leaving them out of luck.

I didn't see anything objectionable about Vanessa's comments. She was merely making an off-handed comment about who she wanted to design her wedding dress in the future. Hopefully her Mr. Right is out there somewhere!
