Weddings are huge events.
Every hour of from makeup application to cutting the cake is documented by photographs. Look back on your
wedding day and the photographic proof feeling confident that you looked your
best. If your wedding is in the planning
stages then we have some must have bridal accessories to choose from.
Modern Veil- Long
train veils are a thing of the past.
Lose the extra weight on your wedding day with a contemporary veil. Netting covering only to the chin line and a
thin layer of tulle are great substitutes.
Retro and vintage accessories are in style for weddings and make for
interesting accents. A vintage wedding
hat with a netting veil could be the perfect pairing combination for your
stylish ceremony.
Crystal Headband-
Tiaras are out unless you are planning a princess themed wedding. They give off a dated and imaginary vibe. But
if you really like the idea of accenting your “crown” with sparkle and bling,
consider a crystal accented headband.
Many accessories purchased at a bridal store can be extremely
overpriced. Shop around at your favorite
stores to find a headband at a fraction of the cost. You may always add a layer of lace or tulle
to the underside of the headband to create a veil.
Hair Accessories-
Due to the duration and activity involved in most weddings many brides opt for
fancy updos. Hair pinned up will hold
style and volume longer than even the most heavily sprayed hair style
alternative. Incorporate a gorgeous accessory
into your stylized hair such as a flower or crystal accent. Feathers accessories are very trendy this
year. If you don't find an affordable
feather clip, then you may choose make your own. Add white goose feathers, craft feathers or most popular, ostrich feathers to your
store-bought accessory to make a stunningly dreamy piece.
Bracelet/Necklace-
You may have heard the wedding saying “something old, something new, something
borrowed, something blue?” Jewelry is a great way to incorporate these
items. A family heirloom necklace or a
newly purchased diamond collar given to you on your wedding day from your
fiancé can be meaningful accessories that will add to the sentiment of your
special day.
Broach- If you
were on a budget, like most brides, when you went dress shopping, you likely
had to compromise between your ideal dress and which dress you could
afford. There will be a few
opportunities to try on your dress before your big day for fitting purposes or
to reveal it to your closest relatives and you may find it lacking in the style
department. If it seems to be too plain
for your big day, go shopping for a spectacular crystal broach. Apply it to your dress where many wedding
dresses have embellishments: belt line, off center or just under the center of
the breast line. Get a few opinions
before you make pin holes in your dress, but this inexpensive update is sure to
make your dress unique.
