Supporting documents vary from person to person, whilst some of it is standard, not everything listed by Shazia is required.
If you live with your family and they pay the utility bills, then you don't need to submit any utility bills. If you are self employed then pay slips aren't required but declaration forms will be required.
I know people who sent in a handful of documents, not the endless list that others have sent, and were granted a VISA first time. Others have sent portfolios upon portfolios and have been refused. What you need to ensure is that you meet the criteria for a VISA.
Identification
Marriage and subsistence of it
Finances
Language
Employment
Housing
Just show how you meet the requirements above with various docs, and you'll be fine.
