what style wedding dress would look good on a short petite girl?

I'm 19 and my fiance is 21. We haven't set a date yet but the wedding will probably be during the summer. I've always wanted a "fairy-tale wedding" with the typical princess/ballgown style dress but I don't want to look like the dress ate me. Any suggestions? I need all the advice I can get!
pictures would be a ton of help. We're on a tight budget so I may be designing my own.

since ur on a tight budget, ur better off renting a beautiful expensive dress rather than buying a cheaper one. besides, theres no point buying one cos unlike other outfits, u can only wear a wedding dress to 1 occassion: ur wedding
avoid fat ball gowns & mermaid tails (they’ll make u look shorter & stockier). stick to straight clean lines: remember, less is more. the sleeker & simpler the dress, the taller, leaner, fresher & more natural you’ll look. couple it w nice high high heels! try to find a dress that shows off as much of ur back as possible cos beautiful slim backs is 1 of a petite lady’s main asset!http://z.about.com/d/weddings/1/0/X/4/73925337_8.jpg

dresses with flowy skirts right below the bust also work beautifully on slim girls

if ur feeling modern, knee length summery wedding dresses look divine on slim petite ladies, especially if ur planning to hold ur reception outdoors
