Playing a blushing bride on TV has wrecked Scrubs star Sarah Chalke's real-life wedding plans because she can't wear the same dream dress twice. The actress found the perfect gown while planning a wedding for her new TV movie Maneater - and then realized she'd have to make a second choice for her own nuptials later this year.

She tells WENN, "I thought it would be great because my character is planning a wedding and I'm planning a wedding - there would be some sort of synchronicity, and I could look at wedding books during scenes. We did get to borrow these gorgeous Monique Lhuillier wedding dresses from this rack of 20 dresses to try on. I fell so madly in love with this one dress and I was like, 'This is the one. This is the perfect dress, it'll be so great.' Then they altered it and I thought, 'Crap, this is actually the dress I want to wear for my real wedding and I can't actually wear it for both."

But at least Chalke has found her dress designer in Lhuillier for when she exchanges vows with lawyer Jamie Afifi.

The actress insists there's no set date yet but the big day will be "very romantic".
