With the news of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's engagement [1], people are trying to find out as much about his stylish bride-to-be [2] as they possibly can. One question that's been at the top of our list is what will Meghan's wedding dress look like [3]? While the Suits actress has revealed that her favorite celebrity wedding dress belonged to Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy [4], we hunted down her first wedding dress to use as a clue for what she might choose for her upcoming nuptials [5].

Meghan's first marriage [6] was to producer Trevor Engelson and took place in Jamaica back in 2011. For the beach wedding, Meghan opted for a beautiful strapless gown that featured a v-neckline and an embellished band around the waist. She kept her accessories simple with a gold bracelet and her wedding band. In fact, her gown reminds us of Kate Middleton's wedding reception dress. (Yes, she wore two designs!) Kate switched into a strapless gown by Alexander McQueen after her ceremony [7] and covered her shoulders with a fuzzy shrug.

Keep reading to have a closer look at Meghan's wedding dress, along with the similar design Kate wore [8], and then check out other strapless styles the actress has worn throughout the years and let us know if you think we're onto something here . . .
