When your wedding day comes, you want to look your best. After all, photos and memories from this day will stay with your forever. A great way to make sure you look elegant, yet unique, is to pick stylish accessories which will complement your bridal look. We are giving you a list of best accessories you can use to make sure you look great on your wedding day.
A veil
Veils are the best because they can transform your overall look from traditional to modern in a blink of an eye. Modern veils are short, come with combs, are often made of tulle or French-netting, and brides usually wear them with hairpins and flowers so that the fabric only covers their eyes. On the other hand, if you’re looking for something a bit more traditional, you can opt for angel-cut wedding veils, which are usually trimmed with satin ribbons. If, however, you want to look like a princess, channel your inner Kate Middleton and pick a waltz-length, lace-edge wedding veil.
A tiara
Your wedding day is the perfect opportunity for you to wear a real tiara, which will make you feel like royalty. However, you should make sure that the tiara you choose not only looks great, but matches your dress perfectly at the same time. It doesn’t matter if you’re planning on wearing gold, pearl or a crystal tiara, it should complement the shape of your face and go well with your hairstyle. Keep in mind that tiara should be one of the last accessories you buy, because you should make sure all the other things are taken care of, including the dress, hairstyle, veil, as well as makeup.
Something to keep you warm
If you’re getting married in fall or winter (or even spring), you never know just how warm the day and chilly the night will be. Even if you’re not getting married during the colder months, having something to cover up is essential if you’re going to get married at a house of worship, where you’ll be obliged to cover your shoulders and décolletage. You will have no problems finding a piece that goes well with your dress because today there is a range of lovely bridal cardigans, lace jackets, faux fur boleros and capelets you can choose from, or even go for a sheer tulle cape for a more delicate look.
The perfect pair of shoes
This is the day when your shoes will be more important than ever, and you should wisely choose your perfect pair. You’ll be standing for a long time and you’ll spend a great portion of the night dancing, which are just some of the reasons why your shoes should not only be beautiful, but comfortable too. If you’re looking for timeless pieces which will take everyone’s breath away, you can try finding Manolo Blahnik, Jimmy Choo, or Badgley Mischka shoes online, but keep in mind that your feet will likely be swollen and that you will perhaps need a slightly bigger size than usual.
A belt or a sash
For ladies who like accentuating their curves (and for ladies who want to create an illusion of curves, too), adding a belt or a sash is the easiest way to achieve this effect. Even if your dress doesn’t come with one, it doesn’t mean that you can’t add it later, especially if you think that it will look great. A nice sash or a custom-made belt is a wonderful way to customize your wedding dress without spending a fortune on alterations and other accessories. Your belt or a sash can match the groom’s tie, your bridal bouquet, or even your maid of honour’s dress, and make your outfit slightly more colourful.
The most important thing to remember is that you shouldn’t drastically change your style; if you don’t usually wear a lot of accessories, there is no reason to use a different approach for your wedding day. Also, if you usually wear jewellery, try implementing your favourite pieces into your bridal look.
