Bridal Hair Accessories - Tips and Tricks To Find Your Match

March 26, 2023

Choosing the perfect bridal hair accessory can be a daunting task, but with the right approach, it can also be a fun and exciting experience. Here are some tips for choosing a bridal hair accessory that are the ideal match for you and your style.

 

  1. Consider your wedding dress
Your bridal hair accessory should complement your wedding dress, not compete with it. Think about the style, colour, and embellishments of your dress when choosing a hair accessory. If your dress has intricate lace or beading, a simple, understated headband or hairpin may be the perfect choice. If your dress is more simple and understated, you may want to opt for a more elaborate headpiece with crystals or pearls to add some sparkle and glamour.

  1. Think about your hairstyle
Your bridal hair accessory should also work with your chosen hairstyle. If you're planning on wearing your hair in an updo, a hair comb, pin or tiara can be a beautiful addition. If you're planning on wearing your hair down, a headband, crown or hairvine can be the perfect finishing touch.

  1. Consider the overall theme of your wedding
If you're having a rustic, bohemian wedding, an ethereal crown or vine-style headpiece is a great choice. If you're having a more formal, elegant wedding, a crystal or pearl headband, comb or hairpins may be a better fit.

  1. Look for quality craftsmanship

Look for a hair accessory that is well-made and durable, with quality materials which a high-lustre shine such as Swarovski or Preciosa crystals, freshwater or crystal pearls, or hand-beaded details. My headpieces are known for their quality craftsmanship and attention to detail - making them a great choice for a heirloom-quality piece that can be worn long after your wedding day.

  1. Choose something that makes you feel beautiful
Ultimately, the most important thing is to choose a bridal hair accessory that makes you feel beautiful and confident on your wedding day. Trust your instincts and choose something that reflects your personal style and makes you feel like a queen.
