Five Must Have Bridal Accessories

When it comes to your wedding day- there is no such thing as too much. Bridal style goes well beyond just your gown, and with an array of fun and chic accessories, expressing yourself on your wedding day has never been easier. Check out our top 5 favourite bridal accessories for your big day. 

 

1. Sunglasses

Whether you are posing for vogue worthy portraits in the gardens or showing off on the dance floor- a stylish pair of bridal sunglasses will never go astray. Try something chic and stylish like a rectangle tortoise shell frame for shielding your eyes during the champagne pop or be daring with fun heart shaped sunglasses for you and your bridal party. Bridal sunglasses have been trending recently, with fun variations including beaded Mr and Mrs frames and dramatic rhinestone cat eyes. 

2. Bridal Jackets

Gone are the days where wedding style meant being cold as soon as the sun sets. Bridal jackets have made an appearance and they are here to stay. Available in an array of colours, styles and silhouettes, we love finding a chic bridal jacket to add layers and dimension to a bridal look.

For the edgy cool girl bride, a custom bridal leather jacket is all the rage, often coming in various shades of leather (and pleather) you can find these embroidered with fun sayings like ‘Til Death or Mrs Smith. We love seeing these over mini dresses or draped over the shoulders.

Nothing says classic quite like a denim jacket, great for a casual touch to your bridal style, we love seeing these embellished with pearls and diamantes, perfect for wearing while mingling or dancing the night away.

If you are looking for chic, look no further than a bridal blazer, perfect as a second look or paired over a bridal mini, an all white blazer brings an effortless cool that only a bride can achieve. 

3. Bridal Robes

Getting ready is just as much part of your big day as the ceremony is, so don’t spend it in that daggy old T-shirt you bought five years ago. Express your bridal style through robes and pyjamas.  We have been loving vintage inspired pyjama sets for you and your bridal crew, making the morning feel like a sleepover with your besties or go dramatic, with a full length robe, complete with train and fluffy trim. Don’t be afraid to go out of the box with your getting ready outfit, this is just the beginning of your big day- and what better excuse to wear the fluffy robe!?

 

4. Wedding Shoes

The best thing about a white dress? Almost all shoes match! Don’t be afraid to make a statement with your wedding shoes, this could be with sparkles, bows or a pop of colour. 

No longer are bridal shoes a plain nude or white heel, more recently we have been loving seeing brides style their gowns with exciting statement heels. Try a hot pink or red pump for a romantic pop of colour, or show off some dramatic heels- complete with tulle bow- through the split in your gown. 

If you’re planning on dancing all night long, don’t get caught out with old dirty sneakers. Invest in a pair of cute and comfortable kicks that will not only complement your reception look, but keep you grooving the night away. 

5. Hair Accessories

A veil isn’t the only hair accessory you can wear on your wedding day- more recently we have been seeing brides opt out of the veil, or add a fun hair accessory post ceremony. Keep it romantic and classic with a tulle bow, perfect for that bridal touch without the bulk of a veil or opt for glam with stick on pearls and diamantes, great for adding texture to a hollywood wave or slick back bun. 

Whatever the way you choose to style your wedding look, it is important to remember this is your day, so make sure your style best represents you and what you feel the most beautiful in.
