The wedding bells will soon be ringing but the bride is anything but beautiful and ready to march down the aisle and straight into her groom’s arms. Frazzled and nervous as you may be about your upcoming nuptials, you should still pay particular attention to the little details, like your bridal accessories.

In the world of fashion, the importance of the right accessories cannot be emphasized enough. Accessories are not just decorations that you stick on the clothes or wear on your body anyway you like. Accessories can make or break your outfit, can help you gain the respect and admiration of people or make them laugh you out of town. For brides, especially, the right bridal accessories are important so that you can feel like the queen you should be on your wedding day.

On a day where even a single pearl missing from your necklace is enough to ruin your entire wedding, keeping it together with the right look is essential because it somehow reassures you that everything will be alright and that everything will go as planned. In addition to the wedding gown, which is of course one of the focal features, your hair, your face and your overall look should be flawless, head-to-toe perfection.

The first thing on the list of course, is your wedding veil. According to history, bridal veils represents purity and the removal of the veil after the ceremony represents the groom being gifted with a virgin bride. Traditionally, the veil length should be about 3 ½ yards but today’s brides often choose to let their veils trail behind their gowns. In the old days, veils were also believed to protect the brides from evil spirits, especially in ancient Rome where this belief was believed to have originated but they have always been associated with purity.

Next on the list would be your jewelry. What woman doesn’t love her jewelries? Brides look especially exuberant and glowing with a good pair of diamond earrings and necklaces to match her wedding ring or with the traditional pearl jewelry that provides that aura of glamor and old-world romance. Along with your jewelries of course, would be the headpieces to accentuate your hairstyles or simply to keep the hair off your face so that your guests can see more of your glowingly beautiful face.

Some of the essential headpieces a bride must have include her tiaras, her headbands and her hair combs. If you don’t want to put your hair up in a chignon, wearing a hair comb is your best bet as this keeps your hair neat by allowing you to pin a portion of it to one side while allowing the rest to flow freely down your back in a cascade of curls or with fluidly straight sleekness. You can also accentuate with floral garlands or rings which gives you an ethereal look and is perfect if you’re holding your wedding at a beach or in an open field.

Of course, a bridal clutch bag is something you mustn’t forget, because as prepared as a bride is on her wedding day, there’s still room for some essentials that she may need for unexpected emergencies like lipstick, lip gloss, a concealer, powder and blush, as well as some breath mints and a place to put her speech notes in. A matching bridal clutch bag will make you look just perfect and adorably chic.

And last but not the least, let’s not forget the bridal shoes. Next to the gown and jewelries, the shoes are every bride’s main concern. Since you will be walking down the aisle and then standing on your feet for a few hours after the wedding, your shoes need not only be pretty and matching your overall wedding theme, it should also be comfortable enough to let you last through the entire ceremony and reception, blister-free.

A girl can never have enough accessories, especially on this day of all days. Keep a checklist handy when planning your wedding and feel free to add as many as you feel you need to ensure you look picture-perfect on your wedding day.
