5 Items to be Careful about while Choosing Wedding Accessories

Getting the bridal look perfectly the way you want it to be is difficult but not impossible. You need enough time to plan out everything well and some expert advice on each little detail so that you’re not lost but the ultimate choice must be yours. Here are the different wedding accessories you need and how to avoid making mistakes while choosing them. The color of each accessory should ideally either match or well complement the wedding dress.

1. Veil

To make the veil make you prettier, instead of messier, keep the following in mind:

• Length: Choose the length of the veil keeping mind that it should complement your dress and must be manageable at the same time.
• Clipping:: Clip it separately so that you can take it off leaving the other hair accessories behind at some point or vice-versa if you want to.
• Match the dress: Make sure the color, fabric and design on the veil matches or complements the dress.
• The drape: Try various drapes and settle for the one that you look best in is easiest to carry.

2. Hair accessories

Keep the hair accessories in sync with the veil and go for any shape and size you want.

• Tiaras:The tiara will reassert that today is your day. Go for a hairstyle that leaves a lot of hair in the front to highlight the volume of hair with the tiara.
• Headbands: This hair accessory goes well with any and every kind of hairstyle.
• Hair pins: You can use ornamental hair pins to keep the veil in place or just like that.
• None: Yes, this is as much as a choice as anything else.

3. Earrings or necklace

It is recommended that you go for either the earrings or the necklace but since it’s your wedding, you can choose neither or both as well.

• Length: Earrings and necklaces can work for or against you depending upon the length chosen. You need to know which kind length suits your face best by trying different ones on. You can even go for gorgeous studs and the daintiest locket if you like.

• Color: Since earrings and necklaces are close to your face, you have more options open than to match them with your dress, like matchingthe color of the stones in them with the color of your lipstick or rouge.
• For fake ones: If you don’t have piercings and still want to wear earrings on just this day, order the customized hooked ones well before the due date.

4. Clutch

This one is not an absolute necessity for some, for others

• Size: If you must carry one, let it be just big enough to accommodate a little handkerchief and a few tissues and pins and your cell phone if you cannot do without it.
• Shape: Anything that’s easy for you to carry. You can have a small ring to fit it into your finger to make sure you don’t lose it but avoid long slings.

5. Shoes

You’ll want them to look good even if they barely show under the dress. Here’s what to keep in mind along with the looks.

• Comfort: The bride should be able to stand, walk and dance freely on her wedding day. Comfort is the most important factor for choosing the shoes. Don’t experiment with the style on your wedding day and wear them a few times prior to the wedding to get comfortable.
• The heels: It’s recommended to keep the heels shorter when you’ll be wearing the most layered and flowing dress of your life. The bride tripping over would make an amazing wedding story that will be hilarious even to the victim herself later on but just at the present, it could spoil the day for you!

To get the complete look right, start the shopping at least six months before the wedding and get customized or handmade accessories if you want. Focus on comfort and keep the look subtle.Keep one or two sets of equally beautiful alternatives ready just in case you change your mind but finalize your choicea week before the wedding so that you’re not confused anymore.
