Accessorizing Your Wedding Dress
Your wedding dress is the centerpiece, but accessories are the details that make the look truly yours. Here's how to choose pieces that complement without competing.
The Veil
A veil adds drama and tradition. Cathedral-length veils create a grand entrance, while birdcage veils offer vintage charm. Match the veil's embellishments to your dress — if your dress has lace, choose a veil with similar detailing.
Jewelry
The rule of thumb: if your dress has a detailed neckline, go minimal on necklaces. If your dress is simple, you have more room for statement pieces. Pearl studs or delicate drop earrings are always a safe choice.
Shoes
Comfort is key. You'll be standing, walking, and dancing for hours. Consider the height of your partner and the terrain of your venue. And don't forget — you might want a second pair for the reception.
