While most people traditionally opted for a summer wedding, nowadays couples plan weddings to fit in with their schedules and personal preferences. Now a wedding in December is just as common as one in the middle of August. With this in mind, here are some of my ideas for the perfect bridal accessories to complement a spring, summer, autumn or winter wedding.
Spring Bridal Accessories
Floral bridal accessories work well for spring weddings; delicate detailing in your hair accessories and pretty feminine jewellery…
Pastel coloured gemstones also work really well as spring bridal accessories…
Summer Bridal Accessories
Summer is typically the most popular season for weddings in the UK, and it is the perfect season to infuse your day with colour and flamboyance! These are some of my favourite summer bridal accessories.
Floral bridal accessories again work well for summer weddings, whether it’s faux flower clips in your hair or floral designs in your jewellery or hair accessories…
Gold Grecian goddess is a popular summer bridal look…
A pop of colour also works beautifully with summer skies. It’s very on-trend to have bright coloured shoes, particularly with shorter or fifties style prom wedding dresses…
For rustic charm, how about a gorgeous floral head wreath, perfect for boho brides…
Opt for a frilly bridal parasol to complete your summery chic look…
Autumn Bridal Accessories
Autumn sometimes gets the short straw; it marks the end of summer and brings with it a hint of the winter months. But autumn weddings are increasingly popular and allow brides to go all out on décor, texture and colour.
Embrace the magic of the autumn colours red, yellow, orange, brown and gold, and inject some rustic charm to your day with these autumn bridal accessories.
Go majestic with a gold tiara — regal and classic designs work best for autumn weddings…
Or stay on trend with a floral headband — the boho chic look is going to big next season…
Wedding jewellery containing hues of yellow, brown or warm amber can bring a dash of colour to your wedding outfit and look stunning with a classic strapless ivory dress…
If you want to keep your autumn bridal accessories simple, dainty hair combs, or even just a fresh flower in your hair, work the understated look beautifully…
Winter Bridal Accessories
Winter weddings have become very popular and are a fantastic opportunity to go glam and play with a bold colour palette such as deep reds, purple or moss green. Or, go for the ice queen look and choose brilliant white and lots of sparkle for your winter bridal accessories.
If you fancy bringing out your inner Hollywood goddess then a winter wedding is definitely for you. A faux fur bolero with a diamanté wedding brooch and a chic updo shouts old-school glamour…
Statement winter bridal accessories are a fabulous way of bringing some sparkle to a simple wedding dress…
Or if you are wearing a short coat dress on your wedding day, why not opt for a chic birdcage veil and some long sparkly earrings…
Finish your winter bridal look off with a bejewelled bridal bag and some killer heels encrusted with crystals…
