Accessorizing your Wedding Gown!
Do you like this?
You have your dream dress and now all your need are the perfect accessories to provide the finishing touch to your wedding day look. Determining which accessories suit your wedding gown can cause some confusion, particularly if you are not used to wearing glamorous jewels in every day life! We thought we would make it easier for you by providing some useful guidance.
The Hair
Don’t let your hair go bare! Adorn your hair with a beautiful silk flower pinned low behind your ear or with a vintage inspired headpiece. Either of these two options are very a la mode, and also the most fabulous way to sparkle on your wedding day, no matter what gown design you have chosen.
You can incorporate a gorgeous piece under your veil, or you can attach your accessory after the veil comes off for a fresh & alternative look at your reception. Many brides are even choosing these fabulous pieces in place of the veil altogether. Either way, we love the different ways brides are incorporating these essential pieces into their bridal looks!

The Necklace
If you are wearing you hair up for your wedding, it is advisable to add some beautiful bling to the bare décolletage area. A gorgeous statement necklace adds instant glamour to a strapless gown and will complete your look with fabulous sophistication. This look tells everyone that you know how it’s done!

The Earrings
If you are wearing a mid length necklace we would suggest wearing some modern classic stud style earrings so as not to overpower your dress. The general rule is ‘pearls with pearls’ & ‘diamantes sparkle together’, but we also know that rules are meant to be broken, as seen in Samantha Wills beautiful collection, also stocked at Savvy Brides.
If you are wearing your hair in a looser down style we suggest standing out with some dazzling drop earrings. You don’t want them to get lost in your hair so don’t hesitate to wear some larger diamantes that will twinkle in your photos.

The Cuff
No matter what style of dress you wear, embellish your wrist with a classic jeweled cuff for ultimate bridal elegance.

The Bridal Sash
The removal belt is undoubtedly the most fabulous way to accessorize your gown. Your options are unlimited and this is the best way to bring individuality to your gown, nip in the waist, and further shape your look Even if your gown does not come with a belt, don’t shy away from adding a splash of colour or diamante encrusted belt to your dress. Your guests will be wowed.
