Bridal
Accessories: The Necessities
So it has come time and you have the wedding
date set. Now you need to get all the things every bride needs
for her big day. Depending on what type of wedding
you are having, you will want to have some basic things. You need to
know what dress, make-up, hairstyle, jewelry, and any other
items you want in your wedding are before you start to go look
for them. There are many helpful sources out there to choose
from when deciding on the things you will need and want. Pick
up a bridal catalog that will help you decide what style dress
you prefer before trying on every one in a store. Make sure
that not only your dress is something you like, but that it
suits your body as well. This dress is supposed to compliment
you and whom you are, not taking away from you or make you
look funny. There are books that will also have styles and
types of jewelry and other items that you may want in your
wedding. Make a list of the items you need and want so you
can check them off as you go.
Buying
the perfect gown can be really hard for some ladies.
You will be surrounded by hundreds of dresses and it may be
hard to know which one is best. Ask the sales girl to help
you. In fact, tell her what you are looking for and let her
pick out a few to choose from and then try them on. This will
let you see what type of dresses compliments you and your body
frame. Make sure the dress fits well, but is not snug; you
don’t want to be uncomfortable. Plus, you want to have some
room in the dress to dance in and move around. If you are having
a theme wedding or you don’t want a traditional type of gown,
try looking up your theme online and seeing some of the options
available. You might be able to find a theme dress from a seamstress
who specializes in costumes and design. You can have your measurements
taken and ask to have a dress specially made for you. There
are many great sources on the Internet such as E-bay that can
help you find what you are looking for.
Once you have settled on a dress, you will need to get shoes to compliment what style you have chosen. If your dress is
traditional, you will want white, of course. What kind of shoe
will depend on your height and style preference. Many brides
will go with a white ballet slipper for comfort if their dress
is long. This way when and if the slipper is shown it, matches.
Many ladies will go with a white flat or pump either in leather
or satin, depending on the dress. This allows the bride to
still be comfortable, but wear shoes with a heel. If the shoes
are bought in leather, then you can also wear them again. Extremely
high heels are not very practical and should be avoided when
possible. They will not be comfortable and remember you will
be in them all day. If you are much shorter than the groom
and want the high heels to give you a lift, then make sure
you have a change for the reception. For a non-traditional
gown style, just about any shoe that compliments the dress
will work. If you are having a wedding with a certain theme,
try to find shoes that go with your theme.
So the basics are done and you want to add a bit of flare
and individuality to your ensemble. Jewelry is a good next
start. This should compliment what you are wearing and not
be overpowering. Make sure that anything you pick out matches
your wedding band. You can choose either a hanging necklace
or even a choker. Earrings will be the next item. They can
match the necklace or not. Depending on your hairstyle, you
will want to decide whether you want studs, loops, or hanging.
Whichever you choose, make sure they are not too big and compliment
the rest of your attire. A bracelet should be avoided if possible
and no rings other than the one that will be placed on your
finger. Wearing those items will take away the attention of
the wedding band, which will defeat the purpose. Remember when
choosing jewelry for your wedding. less is more.
