2012 Wedding Hair Accessories By: Ashley Stone

Gone are the days to only wear a veil. Brides still do opt for the traditional look a veil offers but after the ceremony, a more modern accent is usually preferred. Many times a veil might not be in your vision at all. No worries. 2012 Wedding season is promising a wide range of options for every bride.  I have to say, I love to accessorize an updo. Finding the right one though to compliment the overall style and not take away from it is the hardest part.  Before picking any accessory, I would reccomend deciding on your style first.  When choosing anything additional that is most important because some veils or accessories don't always work well depending on what you do.


Flowers are a timeless accent that I think will always be instyle. Each season I see flowers. You can find them made out of just about any material. One of my favorites are flowers made out of feathers!

               




  Headbands are extremely popular as well. You can find them with so many different types of embellishments as well as flowers. The nice thing about a headband is that it can be versatile. You can wear it in different places to give you a whole new look! Hair Styles such as the "Audrey Hepburn" and the side swept updos with texture look great with a headband.

Everyone knows about the feather craze that caught on very quickly. For your Bridal look a feather can be the perfect accessory to accent your look in so many ways. Not just the traditional white feathers but colored feathers for the bridal party.  They even have metalic feathers or blinged out ones!

What girl doesn't love to sparkle? Especially on her big day! You can combine all of these trends into one sparkly piece. For a more affordable accent you can purchase a brooch that you would normally pin to a shirt and bobby pin that in instead.

Whether you choose to accent your look or keep it more simple. The day is all about your vision. Always keep in mind your dress and other accessories like your earrings and necklace. You don't want to over do it. Again, keep in mind the style you want to do and then choose the perfect accent to go with it. With all these options, you can't go wrong!!
