The wedding pro explained that you should never back up in a wedding dress

Professional wedding photographer Joy Ximenez uploaded a short video to her Instagram with the savvy tip.

She uploaded the with the caption: "I teach all my clients how to NOT walk back in their dress! I think she’s got this!"

In the video a bride can be seen with her bridesmaids out on a field and the bride demonstrates the technique of walking around in a circle in order to turn, rather than walking backwards.

This means that she avoids stepping on - and possibly tripping over - the train of her dress, which could potentially save a bride from disaster on her big day.

Fans of the Instagrammer were quick to agree with the clever tip.

One said: "The pageant circle! I had to do this with all my dresses for pageant."

While another said: ";Thanks for this! My wedding is in a week."

And a third agreed: "Bahahaha this is so true. Did this so much on my wedding day."
