Are you stepping away from the traditional wedding veil? Well, you’ve come to the right place, because we can show you plenty of extremely original alternatives to the veil. It is becoming clear that this classic piece that brides have been wearing for as long as we can remember are becoming less popular.
So, if you don’t feel the urge to wear a veil either and you want to avoid the moment in which the bride reveals her face, you are also one of these daring brides!
Choose a different, more original accessory that reflects your style and personality. Take note!
Be polite with a hat
A sun hat, a cowboy hat, a straw hat, a bowler hat, a bell hat… Any of these options would be perfect! But of course, they must match the colour of the bride’s dress and the groom’s suit, as well as the wedding style.
For brides, white colours stand out: If you’re getting married on the beach, a sun hat would be perfect. For a wedding in the countryside, choose a cowboy hat. Have no fear and be decisive, a hat will be the best option!
Red Fascinators
Yes, we have seen the guests wearing these before, but now the bride will where them too! It would be an ideal choice for more vintage brides and perfect for vintage themed weddings or a retro style.
This accessory consists of a little hat or fascinator with a tiny veil attached in a shade of red, a way of giving the bride a sense of mystery.
They also suit any type of hairstyle!
Brides with a hooded cape
Make way for the winter brides! Because capes are going to become essential for the brides who are sensitive to the cold. The hood will act as a way to cover the face, like Little Red Riding Hood!
This is an ideal accessory for such a harsh environment and will make you look like you’ve just come out of a fairy tale at your wedding.
Hairbands are a must
If it’s a street style trend for 2023, it will also feature in wedding fashion.
With flowers, pearls, fabric or any type of appliqué, this accessory is very versatile and can be adapted to suit any style.
They will also work to enhance ponytails, half-up-half-down styles and even loose long hair.
Headscarves
With a headscarf, the possibilities are endless in terms of colours and textures, and they can be arranged in many ways on your head: with a ribbon, woven into a braid, in the style of a pirate, with lace, attached to a ponytail or in the style of Audrey Hepburn!
It is an ideal accessory for a rural or informal wedding
A tiara or a crown
Jewelled crowns are already very popular, especially those that have been inherited and have great historic value.
This is an accessory that will never go out of style, given that they suit any hairstyle and enhance them with stones, sparkles and crystals.
They are perfect for more simple looks and more classic and elegant weddings! They are very special and delicate, making you feel like a real member of the royal family.
Turbans are still popular
Fashionable since the 60s, this alternative accessory to the veil is very versatile given that it comes in a variety of different fabrics and styles that can be adapted to suit any bride.
It is very easy to take on and off, and works well for day weddings as well as at night!
Greek chains
For an informal look, perfect for more boho-style weddings, this accessory creates a very romantic look.
The chains can be different colours and could have little tear-shaped jewels attached.
The best option would be to wear it with loose, wavy hair, although it also looks good with braids and half-up-half-down styles.
Any of these accessories will impress everyone, as you are demonstrating that whilst before, the veil was an essential and compulsory element of the bridal look, now they can be substituted for anything you want, and it looks great!
