Headpiece Heaven

Headpieces are a fun way to make your wedding day style your own. Some styles are new while others are a twist on classic favorites. Flowers are an affordable and versatile way to add something to your look.  For a destination wedding, tropical flowers are a great way to go. You can pick whatever is growing around the island! This is also great for the more bohemian bride to give your flowing curls a romantic addition. Consider wearing your hair loose and wavy with this style.
If you want to channel Kate Middleton but don't want a tiara that sits high up on your head, a headband that complements your gown is a great choice. Headbands come in all different stones including pearls, diamonds, crystals, and basic silks. This is a style that you could choose whether you are wearing your hair in a sleek up-do or down and loose.

If a headband isn't your style, consider Kate's other favorite head accessory, a fascinator. For the bride looking for something more eclectic, you can choose a colored feather such as black, peacock, or any of your wedding colors. For the glamour bride, there are lots of options that have crystals and rhinestones. The more traditional bride can choose an ivory or white feather with a simple French twist. This trend is not going anywhere girls!

A retro style that has made a comeback is the birdcage veil. This is also a style that can incorporate all of the trends above. You can attach them to either flowers, feathers, or hats. This is something that can stand as your "something borrowed" or "something old." Many times a mother, grandmother, or aunt wore this style when they got married, so this is something fun that you can share.If your heart is still set on wearing a traditional veil for the ceremony, one of these styles could be a fun and stylish change for your reception.
