When choosing a wedding dress many brides forget to shop
for accessories to complete the look. Accessories help make
the bride look her best. Accessories should be purchased
from with the wedding dress or with the wedding dress in
mind as you want the accessories to match the dress, like
they were meant to be worn together. This article details
some of the essential wedding accessories.
The Wedding Veil
All brides need to decide whether or not to use a wedding
veil. A wedding veil is traditional, so if you are planning
a traditional wedding you should include the veil in the
bridal accessories. When picking out the wedding veil make
sure you choose one which fits in with the theme of your
wedding and goes well with the wedding gown. Remember that
there are many styles and lengths in wedding veils today
and you will have many options to choose from. You should
try on several veils in different lengths and styles while
wearing your dress before making the final decision.
Shoes and stockings
You will need to find wedding shoes and stockings to wear
with the dress. Shoes and stockings should be tried on with
the dress to see how they all look together. Usually brides
choose shoes that are made of materials such as velvet,
satin and silk as they are materials best suited for formal
events. You could even have embellishments on your shoes
such as beads, sequins, pearls of crystals. When choosing
shoes and stockings you should make sure that they are
comfortable as you need to wear them all day long. When you
look back at your wedding you do not want your first
thought to be that you feet hurt all day long.
Jewelry
The wedding bands and the wedding rings are the most
important jewelry in your wedding. However, these are not
the only pieces you will be wearing. You can choose a few
other pieces to wear such as necklaces, bracelets and
earrings. You want to choose jewelry that is nice and adds
to the whole ensemble, but not jewelry that steals the
show. Even though the wedding gown is the most important
piece you will be wearing that day, the jewelry should also
be nice enough to compliment the gown. Common jewels worn
at weddings include diamonds and pearls. If you have any
family heirlooms that will go well with your dress you may
want to choose to wear them, they usually work out as an
ideal heirloom ? a piece of jewelry which is beautiful and
which has sentimental value.
Headpieces
Headpieces can be a nice touch to the rest of your outfit.
Headpieces include combs, headbands, back pieces, and
tiaras. Head pieces are usually decorated with crystals,
pearls, beads of flowers. A beautiful headpiece can help
hold the veil in place and complete the look or you can
choose you use the headpiece, like a tiara, by itself and
eliminate using a veil at all.
Gloves
Many brides enjoy wearing gloves. There is something so
elegant about a pair of beautiful white gloves paired with
a wedding dress. Gloves look especially right with a
strapless gown. In general, the shorter the sleeves the
longer the gloves should be.
Handbags
Even though you do not carry a bad with you down the aisle
or even at the reception it is still nice to have a small
purse of handbag available with anything you may need.
Typically a small purse is packed with things a bride may
need to touch up her look such as makeup, colonge and a
small sewing kit for emergencies. It does not have to be
large; it can be a small clutch.
