Think Beyond Jewelry
Some items add a specific inspiration of antiquity or romance. All brides have their preferences; if you are a bride of distinct eyes eclipsed by glasses, we suggest and implore you to accessorize with designer glasses and wear them with pride.
Here is a list and types of glasses for you to consider on your wedding day:
- Traditional glasses: the immortal white and silver frames are always iconic; you can’t go wrong with classics.
- Bohemian: earth tones and flower-like combine a rich combination of colors; it expresses a rich, unconventional bride.
- Minimalist glasses: simple, subtle, and chic; these glasses typically come in shades of neutral colors such as white, cream, or black.
- Rustic frames: effortless and agreeable temperament. A luscious brown or robust-tortoiseshell frame can represent an easy-going personality.
- Glamorous: an unanticipated pop of color; unorthodox and gallant, you can go wild with an emerald frame, or if you like earthly gems, you can select a quartz or amethyst frame.
Of course, to pick your frame, you must contemplate your face shape; frame shapes and face shapes go hand in hand. So, if you have a heart-shaped face, decide on an oval or a typical rectangle frame. Oversized frames like square and geometric are suitable for a more rounded face; they highlight the cheeks well. All of these details should be considered with attention to hair color and skin tones.
- Floral bridal crowns: bring nostalgia back into the present and mesmerize the crowd with a darling wreath resting upon your head in an ever so kindly manner that emanates an amorous, free-spirited bride. A woman who wears her passion proudly for everyone to see.
Flowers have such a whimsical effect to them, embodying a garnished silhouette. Let it sit above your braided locks, wear your hair down, and embrace a natural curl.
- Bridal Tiaras: the center of attention and the queen for the day; sparkle in a royal tiara and shine bright like a diamond in valuable gemstones; it can be bought at affordable prices with semi-gems and other stones like Swarovski and rhinestones. They can be the perfect add-on to a ballgown for a complete royal treatment with a sleek bun and a perfect set of earrings and necklaces.
Accessorize Your Hair
Headpieces are a spectacle to the bodacious ceremony; they imply a sense of optimism and astonishment. Celestial and quite exquisite like a goddess, you can command the room and bewilder those who dare to look.
- Pearly hair-pins: spark and present a sense of curiosity. To symbolize the hidden sea jewel discovered in your beauty and grace, sporadically spread a set of pearl pins upon your hair and uncover the long-lost mermaid.
- Floral pins: these are another favorable option among brides-to-be; floral pins decorate the hair in a lush blossoming extravaganza. It is nice to declare a lasting love that fights against the changing seasons and endures all, especially in the spring and fall seasons.
Wear Bridal Gloves
Brides display a sense of influence and prestige with a soft pair of gloves for such a significant occasion. Channel your inner imperial genius with a pair of dashing gloves during the big day and stand out.
Tradition dictates that the glove length is imperative to the degree of formality; long gloves tend to imply a very formal impression. They are usually worn with long train gowns, remarkable bridal princess gowns, or ballgowns. At the same time, shorter gloves combine well with fitted dresses, simple flow gowns, or even an A-line wedding dress.
With the concept of vintage styles in mind, some brides like to toy around, inspiring an element of antiquity; they accent their dress style with an embroidered glove or hand-knit opera-length gloves. With various options to ponder, there’s a plentiful amount of fabric to pick from; silk, lace, sheer organza, and velvet.
State-of-the-art concept gloves are very in now, sewn in the full-length and elongated forearm. These gloves are decorated in edgy styles like ruffles or tapestry. Draw attention to your stylish sense of fashion with an odd mix of simple skim silhouettes and opera-length gloves.
For a classic bride, we recommend a stunning satin glove. For a more distinct look, brides can go with the wild card and wear a fingerless glove.
Consider a Cover-Up
Depending on the season or the venue, some adjustments could be necessary. If you’re having a winter wonderland wedding and the weather is all frosty, a shawl or a dress topper caresses your shoulders, rekindling the blush on your cheek and adding to the warmth of your heart and smile on your face. If you’re having a church wedding, a bolero is a sweet item to wear. You can use this opportunity as a wardrobe change from ceremony to reception.
When contemplating this item, you should aim to match your cover-up to your dress; wedding attire should possess balance, poise, and radiant grace. A sequenced bolero can bring a sleek and authentic gown to life. Or perhaps a daring edgy feathery bolero if that’s more like your taste and sense of style.
Add a Jolt of Color to Inject Personality into Your Big Day
You can create your vision; paint an image of your fantasy. Every bride is entitled to make her own rules, and there are no rights or wrongs regarding wedding choice. If you can’t stop thinking about it and your heart is set on a specific color that matches your soul and entails the story behind your personality, we cheer you on and say go for it.
Or perhaps you’re torn between traditional white and yet hope and eagerness for some color; well, a crinoline underskirt is a wonderful alternative option. You can pick colorful shades that will contrast from underneath the gown, emitting a colorful flirtatious hue.
Another safe option is to have a modern state-of-the-art venue; design it and fill it with rich colors that speak to your heart. You make a theme out of it; reach far and pick an attire of specific alternating colors for guests.
A museum is full of art; some museums are willing to host such ceremonial events. A national park provides a perfect backdrop with all elements of nature that are vibrant, colorful, and full of life. If you’re an artist, you can draw your mural on a wall where the altar may be placed. It’ll be a great addition to your wedding photos.
Do a Test Run Before the Big Day

As you prepare, you guarantee that the ceremony goes as planned and as smoothly as can be. See how it feels; you can even include trusted friends in the rehearsal, and they might have some good ideas. Just ensure the groom doesn’t see the bride in the dress. We wouldn’t want any bad luck before the big day.
