It’s always so rewarding for me to help make a bride’s vision of herself become a reality on her wedding day. Of course, I have some of the most fun when a bride comes to me with an awesome hair accessory that I know is going to take her hair from “wow” to jaw-dropping.
An accessory can completely change the look of a bride’s hair and can be anything from elegant and sparkly to funky and colorful – it’s all in the details, right??
There are so many great online resources for finding out-of-this-world bridal hair accessories that the problem can actually become narrowing down the selection to find the one for you. A few of my favorite sites to help you get started include:
ban.do – The creative genius behind designers Jen and Jamie’s line of whimsical, playful and gorgeous accessories is delightful. While they do have a bridal line, I love the Black Label pieces for their unique, one-of-a-kind quality.

Etsy – The mecca of all things hand-made and crafty, it’s incredibly easy to lose yourself for hours on this site. While there are many stores (like, literally hundreds) to choose from, Sibo Designs, Portobello and Untamed Petals all offer amazing selections that are oh so pretty.

Tiger Lilly Jewelry – This site offers an impressive selection with everything from tiaras to birdcage veils to limited-edition vintage finds. They even offer a Bridal Stylist service to provide inspiration and a Live Chat option if you have a specific question or need help choosing an item.

Remember, it’s always important to keep the tone, feel and setting of your wedding in mind when choosing how you want to style your hair. This will definitely help narrow down some of the accessory choices. Going for a laid back, beachy vibe? Perhaps a tiara isn’t the route you want to go.
Also, make sure you use your stylist! We’re a great resource and can help you narrow down some of the looks you like based on technique, trends and how your hair will behave due to texture and thickness.
