The Art of Enhancing Bridal Style
At Confetti & Curves, we believe every bride deserves to shine on their special day. While finding the perfect plus-size wedding dress is a significant milestone, choosing the right accessories can take your bridal look to the next level.
Thoughtful accessorizing not only complements your gown but also enhances your natural beauty and personal style. Here are our top tips to help you achieve the perfect ensemble.
Your Dress is the Star
Your wedding dress is the centrepiece, so let it guide your accessory choices.
If your gown features intricate lace or beading, opt for simpler accessories to avoid a cluttered look.
A sleek, minimalist dress pairs beautifully with bold statement pieces like chandelier earrings or a dramatic necklace.
Consider the neckline of your dress. For example, sweetheart or strapless necklines pair well with statement necklaces, while high necklines may call for drop earrings or a sparkling hair accessory.
Prioritize Comfort and Balance
Comfort is key on your big day, choose bridal accessories that feel natural and don’t detract from your experience.
Avoid overly heavy earrings or necklaces that may become uncomfortable during the ceremony and reception.
Balance is essential. If you pick a statement necklace, pair it with subtle earrings or vice versa.
Ensure your accessories work with the proportions of your dress and body to create a harmonious look.
Consider the Role of Your Veil
Bridal veils are a traditional accessory that can add a touch of romance to your look.
Match the length and style of the veil to your dress. For example, a cathedral veil complements formal gowns, while a fingertip veil suits most silhouettes.
Look for veils with embellishments that echo the details of your dress, such as lace trims or scattered crystals.
If you prefer to forgo a veil, consider alternatives like a floral crown, hairpins, or a jewelled headband.
Choose Shoes That Combine Comfort & Style
Your wedding shoes should make you feel confident and comfortable.
Block heels or wedges for better support, especially if your wedding involves lots of walking or dancing.
Flats or embellished sneakers for a fun and practical touch.
Ensure your shoes complement the style and length of your dress. For example, embellished shoes add sparkle to shorter gowns, while closed-toe designs work well with long, flowing skirts.
Enhance Your Waistline
Many plus-size brides love to accentuate their waistline. A well-chosen belt or sash can:
Add definition and structure to your silhouette.
Highlight intricate beading or embroidery on your dress.
Be customized to reflect your wedding colours or theme.
Think Beyond Jewellery
Accessories aren’t limited to jewellery. Other elements can enhance your bridal look:
Wraps or Shawls: Perfect for cooler weather, these add elegance while keeping you warm.
Gloves: Short or elbow-length gloves bring vintage charm to your outfit.
Bouquets: Choose a bouquet size that complements your proportions and coordinates with your overall look.
Personalize Your Look
Don’t be afraid to inject personality into your bridal accessories.
Wear family jewellery or a sentimental piece from a loved one.
Add a pop of colour on your shoes, bouquet, or jewellery.
Incorporating elements that reflect your unique style or wedding theme.
Your wedding day is all about celebrating you, and your accessories should make you feel confident, radiant, and true to yourself.
