When you choose a hairstyle for your wedding, you will also need to consider two more factors. Firstly, will you be wearing a veil and, secondly, what kind of hair accessories would you prefer. The type of accessories you choose will depend on your hairstyle and the type of wedding gown you have chosen. The bride always needs to dress the part, and this means that her dress, hair, and accessories must compliment the wedding theme. Here are some popular hair accessory options to keep in mind:
Combs
Combs are like large hair pins. They are available in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. For the most part, combs are worn on the side of the head and in line with either ear. There are designs that appear more vertical and then there are those that run vertically along the back of your head. Your hair stylist can choose to make your comb an essential part of holding the style together or it can simply be added afterward. By adding the comb to the side, you will leave more than enough room for your veil to be secured.
Flowers
Flowers are fabulously feminine and, since they are an important part of any wedding décor, why not add them to your hair as well? Flowers come in a number of sizes, and you can choose between fresh blooms, artificial ones, and those made from gems and jewels. You can choose between adding a single large bloom, several small flowers, or even a medium-sized flower with some tiny filler flowers (like baby’s breath) to give it that extra touch. With flowers, you also have a wide number of options in terms of colors. If you want to break away from the usual white, you might like to add a colorful bloom or two to your upstyle.
Headbands
Headbands can be worn with just about any hairstyle, and they are perfect for giving you that extra bit of sparkle! There’s no need to go all out and buy the most expensive jewels. If you are on a tight budget but you still want to shine, look for the dress jewelry varieties instead. You’re only wearing this headband on your wedding day, and they are unlikely to be worn again given the fact that they will always make you look extra fancy!
Hair Pins
Hair pins are some of the most versatile of hair accessories. You can literally find hair pins in every shape, size, and color imaginable. The smaller the pins, the more you can add to your hair. If the pins are particularly large or bulky, you can use just one or two. If you overdo it, your hair accessories can overwhelm and overshadow your beautiful hair so make sure you also have them handy when you go for your hair trial.
Hair Vines
For that perfect combination of nature and sparkle, choose hair vines! These dainty accessories will lightly grace your hair with just the right amount of elegance.
Vintage
When you think of a vintage theme, you might just imagine sparkling hair pins and the kind of headbands that would make your outfit perfect for a Great Gatsby themed party! If you are wearing a vintage style dress, it is crucial that you choose the right accessories to emphasize and compliment this theme.
Tiara
If you have always dreamed of a princess style wedding, then a tiara is for you! You don’t need to wear one that will tower above your hair. There are a number of stunningly understated tiaras on the market that will stay perfectly in place for the duration of the celebrations.
Remember to always consult with your hair stylist before choosing a style and hair accessories. If possible, show them a photograph of you wearing your wedding dress so that they can help you look your absolute best!
