We understand that when you have the stress of planning a wedding, choosing bridesmaid accessories can become more of a chore than a pleasure. Sometimes it is tempting to settle for the easy option when choosing accessories for your bridesmaids. However, your bridesmaids are exactly that – the bride’s maids. At the wedding, bridesmaids often walk down the aisle before or with the bride, giving the guests taste of what is to come. They are in many of the wedding pictures and are your representative. Not only this, but they are often close friends or family. This means that their outfits are in fact very important, and rather than outshining you, should complement what you will be wearing, and be a shining representative of it.

There is an array of products on the bridal wear market for bridesmaids, but you should not be daunted or afraid to dress your bridesmaids in styles that stand out or incorporate their individual personalities. No one will outshine you on your wedding day, as no one can outshine a bride!

Remember, your bridesmaids do not have to all match exactly. Instead keep the colours and overall style the same and follow our guidelines below:

For younger bridesmaids and flower girls: Try headbands with less crystal and more flowers. Not only do they look the part, headbands are easier to wear for young girls. If you fall in love with a larger headpiece, this can be scaled down to fit a younger girl.

For older bridesmaids and maid of honour: Try a more sophisticated look with crystal detail. Older bridesmaids can look fantastic with decoration on combs, or on side sprays.

In trend: Silver crystals mixed with your colour choices, alternatives to traditional tiara shapes such as side sprays and hair jewellery. Current colour trends for bridesmaids are royal blue, deep purple, sunshine topaz, and greens such as sage and emerald are really on trend this season. Don’t forget! If your bridesmaids are wearing colours that are difficult to match, simple AB crystal on silver always looks lovely.

Often in today’s weddings, bridesmaids’ outfits do not match each other exactly in their style and shape, but are made from the same fabrics and colours. However, accessories can still be matched from bridesmaid to bridesmaid or can follow a similar theme to the dresses. Choose, for example, a coloured crystal that matches the dress colour and work this into a selection of different headpieces and jewellery to complement each bridesmaid’s hair and individual style.

Our collection of bridesmaid accessories includes tiaras, headbands, jewellery and posies. Our posies are a beautiful addition for any bridesmaid, and as they are made from fabrics and crystals, you will be giving them something they can keep forever.

Many new styles are being seen on the bridal market at the moment, as bridesmaids demand to look more fashionable. This includes trails of crystals that can fall from the hair, longer necklaces, and headbands that are worn across the forehead. We are at the forefront of bridal wear design and innovation and the bridesmaid accessories collection is no exception.

It is traditional to give a gift to each attendant at the wedding, and jewellery to complement the bridesmaids’ outfits is a lovely way to say thank you. We suggest combining coloured crystals in two or more shades, or with totally clear crystals to create a necklace and earrings that can be worn and enjoyed again and again. With a trend for pearls in general fashion you might like to consider a Swarovski Crystal Pearl necklace, available in soft muted tones as well as ivory or white. If you are planning on following the tradition of giving gifts to your attendants at the ceremony, our jewellery, presented in a lovely leatherette box, is the perfect gift that will last as a keepsake of your attendants’ day.

Most of our bridal accessories can also be worn for Proms. Our accessories provide a sophisticated look, and are available in a wide selection of colours that will complement prom wear perfectly. If you are unsure of which colour would work best for you, feel free to give our fantastic customer service team a call or an email for advice.
