Remember, when the wind is behind you, make fast at the rear of the boat first.
When the wind is in front of you, make fast the front line first.
In both cases, the wind will blow you on to the dock.

You would be wise to put the fenders out FIRST to reduce possible damage to the vessel, not after!..in case of wash from another vessel or wind on when approaching the berth!

The most important thing to remember: Never approach anything any faster than you're comfortable hitting it!
