13 Hair Accessories To Wear If You Want To Ditch The Veil

Modern Wedding Posted: March 17, 2019

Don’t get us wrong, we love a wedding veil! A veil is a beautiful element of tradition to bring to your big day, and can look incredibly dreamy and romantic. While many brides choose to wear a veil, this look isn’t for everyone. If you are wanting to ditch the veil but still accessorise your bridal look, then try these gorgeous accessory alternatives!

Keep It Fresh

Add a touch of nature to your bridal look with some fragrant, fresh flowers. The styling options for this look are almost endless so you can really get creative. They are also a beautiful way to spread the joy of your floral choices throughout the day.

Floral Halo

If a few small floral details aren’t enough, then a flower crown may be the way to go. The beautiful style of a flower crown is what boho dreams are made of! These little beauties allow you to have your florals really standing out all day long.

Shake Your Tail Feather

Add some fluff and fun to your up-do with a feather headpiece. This will bring a soft and elegant feel to your look, and is oh so trendy!

A Royal Wedding

Everyone deserves to feel like royalty on their special day, and what better way to do that than by adding in a tiara! The ultimate way to bring a luxurious and regal element to your look.

Gatsby Glitz

Now this one is for the brides who are looking for something really unique. Add a true glimpse of Gatsby to your day with a dazzling bridal head chain. These are also the perfect accessory if you’re planning to let your luscious locks flow.

Caged Style

It’s the ultimate idea if you are wanting a more traditional style but without opting for a full length veil. A birdcage veil brings a stylish yet conservative feel to any bridal look.

Comb It Through

Whilst holding a similar idea to a headpiece, a bridal comb is traditionally smaller and easier to place in the hair. Perfect for a half-up, half-down hairstyle or a swept back bun.

Old School Meets New School

These may bring back some memories from the early 2000’s, but we promise that bridal headbands are here to stay! These jewelled beauties add a romantic and sweet element, whilst still showing off that breathtaking bling.

David’s Bridal / Little White Couture

Put A Bow On It

Add a stunningly stylish detail with a sweet little bow. This is a gorgeous way to add some detail if you are wanting to stay away from the glitz and glam and go with a look which is more soft and romantic.

Wrap It Up

Bridal head wraps are wonderfully unique and bring a classic and romantic style to your day. Whether you have this matching the lace on your gown or coated with delicate beading, this style is sure to add an extra elegance to your day.

Gilded Shadows / Melinda Rose

Twist And Shout

Twist in some glamorous detail with a hair vine. These work particularly well if you are wanting to work some shine into your beautiful boho braid.

Not On The High Street / Untamed Petals

Put A Pin In It

Hair pins are versatile, easy to use and add the perfect amount of sparkle. Whether you choose to add one or five, this is an incredibly creative way to bring some shimmer and shine to your hairstyle.
