Buying a wedding dress is one of the most important decisions when planning a wedding but it’s essential to pay attention to detail. As a blushing bride, you want to ensure that everything about your wedding day look is perfect. In this helpful guide, we’ll offer some top tips to help you find the right accessories to showcase your gown in all its glory.
Celebrate your style.
The golden rule to follow when shopping for accessories for your big day is to celebrate your style. Every bride is unique and there are no right or wrong answers. Choose pieces that complement your personal style and taste and the gown you’ve chosen. Perhaps you adore vintage pieces or maybe you prefer ultra-modern jewelry or you’ve got your eye on a pair of quirky shoes that will make a statement. It’s so important to remember that it’s your day. You don’t have to fit within a mold or follow others.
Research.
It’s hugely beneficial to research if you’re buying accessories such as fine jewelry or designer shoes. If you’re paying a lot of money, you want to ensure that you’re buying from reputable retailers and that the pieces you invest in will last. It’s helpful to read reviews and compare prices and quotes if you’re browsing online and to check the credentials of sellers, retailers or stores if you’re buying vintage or second-hand items. You can find everything from a Jared Jewelers review from The Diamond Expert to ratings for independent stores and retail chains online. Always ensure that you read the details carefully and check the quality and condition of the products you want to buy before you complete the payment. It’s also wise to read the returns policy.
Try different looks with your dress.
When you’re designing a look for your wedding day, you want to create a cohesive vision that works. It can be difficult to see what kinds of accessories or which pieces go together without trying different styles and items with your dress. Put your gown on and then experiment with different looks and see how you feel.
Think about your focal point.
One top tip to bear in mind is to think about your focal point. When you walk through the door and people see you for the first time, where do you want their eyes to be drawn? For many of us, we want the dress to be the main attraction, but some people have other ideas. You might want a very plain and understated dress you can jazz up with spectacular jewelry, or you may be eager to turn heads with a pair of statement heels, for example. If you do want your dress to shine, it’s best to adopt the ‘less is more’ mantra. If you want your shoes, a hair accessory, a necklace or a pair of earrings to steal the show, you can go all-out on the accessories.
Putting a wedding day look together takes more than buying a stunning dress. If you’re looking for accessories, it’s beneficial to celebrate your style, try different looks and think about your focal point. It’s also wise to research before you buy to ensure you’re purchasing high-quality, genuine items.
