Accessories and Jewellery
Shoes
You either love shopping for shoes or you detest it and shopping for wedding shoes isnt any different!Your style of dress will largely dictate your shoe style, and naturally open-toe sandals for a wedding in Norfolk in December are not wise!
If you are close in height to your fianc, perhaps you prefer wearing flatter styles, but dont switch to heels suddenly for your big day if you are not used to them, as not only could you be wobbling down the aisle but theyll make your legs ache too!
Break in your shoes by wearing them for an hour for several days before the event, and remember its handy to have a spare pair just in case. That way, if you need a different pair for dancing or the heel or strap breaks on the day, youll be ready!
Tiaras
Fairytale classic or a modern look - there are plenty of tiara styles to choose from. You can also choose from a range of fascinators - a mixture of material, feathers, beads and the like.
Jewellery
Jewellery to wear with the wedding dress can be tricky to choose, as you want something special but not anything that dominates your dress, unless, that is, the idea is to have a simple outfit and bold accessories.Choose the outfit first and then the accessories as it can be tricky to find a dress to complement an antique necklace and pair of earrings, while there may be a pair of family heirloom earrings, which will go perfectly with that soft gold frock.
The idea usually is to keep it simple, and remember that jangly earrings soon will look out of date in the photographs as well as jingling through the ceremony.
Rings
Choose rings with care, trying plenty before deciding. If choosing an engagement ring, decide now if you are likely to have a wedding ring to match as these often come in pairs which sit well together.The rings are the jewellery you will look at most, so they have to be just right.
