Can you tell me the name of this old movie?

I'm looking for an old movie. It's not in color and it was made between the 1940' s and 50's. And it's an american romantic comedy.

The movie is about a young women who has left three men at the alter and now she is on her forth engagement. Her family decides to send her away before the wedding so that she can relax and think about whether or not she is sure that she will not leave her now fiance at the alter as well. On her trip she realizes that she really wants to be with him but on the train ride home she has a strange dream of a man that she has never seen before that is dressed in an Native American costume. In the dream he tells her that she will not marry her fiance and does not love him but she loves him(the guy that's telling her this).

When she wakes up she wonders about the dream, but then surprise! Native American guy is now out of her head and into the real world and follows her home! As time passes she realizes that maybe he is right. Anyway it turns out that the reason she dreamed of him in a Native American costume was because when she was a child she had a costume birthday party and a little boy that she fell in love with had that costume on and her conciseness just made him an adult in her dreams. After that she meets the man who was the little boy when she mistakes him for the dream version but then later she realizes he is real and he is a fireman. She then falls in love with him all over again and runs away from her wedding on his firetruck with him.

    IT HAD TO BE YOU (1947) starring Ginger Rogers and Cornel Wilde

    Brief synopsis of the start of the movie:

    Victoria Stafford, a pretty Fifth Avenue society girl, has made three unsuccessful attempts to marry, each time leaving her groom at the altar just as she is about to recite her vow. So infamous is Victoria's reputation at the altar, that the father of her next fiancé, the staid Oliver H. P. Harrington, demands that she take a month vacation alone to fully consider her decision. After a month of sculpting at her vacation home in Cape Cod, Victoria, now certain about her decision to marry Oliver, boards a train back to New York. En route, Victoria has a dream about an American Indian who, while breaking up her marriage to Oliver, insists that he is the one that she truly loves. When Victoria awakens, the Indian suddenly appears in the bunk above hers, explaining that his presence, though real, is merely a manifestation of her subconscious thoughts, and that she has dreamed of him on many occasions in the past. As the train pulls into Grand Central Station, Victoria attempts to flee from the Indian, but he appears at every turn. After exchanging his Indian garb for a business suit, the Indian makes a surprise appearance at the Stafford's as Victoria is nervously trying to explain the reason for missing Oliver at the train station...
