Choosing A Bridal Tiara

Bridal tiaras are once again a wedding day staple and fashionable accessory that can be seen, not only on brides, but also fashion models, socialites, and graduating teenagers. Bridal tiaras add that elegant sparkle and look of sophistication to the top of your wedding day attire. It is quite literally the cherry on top of a beautifully iced wedding cake, so be sure to make the most of your sparkling accessory by choosing the right tiara for you.

When choosing a bridal tiara style, you need to take a few things into consideration. The shape of your face should be the first thing you look at when trying on different styles of bridal tiaras. If you have a long, oblong shaped face, you probably don’t want to choose a bridal tiara that is too tall because it will only elongate your face even more, which is not a very attractive look. If you have a very wide or round shaped face, you want to stay away from a very thin or small sized bridal tiara because it will end up looking like a child’s toy on your head.

You’ll also want to decide on how you are going to wear your hair on your wedding day when choosing your bridal tiara. If you are planning on wearing your hair down, choose a smaller, thinner bridal tiara so that it doesn’t become a distraction. If you are planning on wearing your hair in an elaborate up-do, then you’ll want to choose a wider or more extravagant bridal tiara. Otherwise you run the risk of a thin tiara getting lost in or being overpowered by your hairstyle.

Don’t start shopping for bridal tiaras before you decide on the style of dress that you are going to be wearing on your wedding day. While you might think you want to get a big, poofy, princess dress for your wedding, you might end up with a sleek, formfitting, modern style of dress in the end. The style of your bridal tiara should go with the style of dress you choose. A large princess crown will look silly with an understated, simple dress, so make sure you coordinate the two items accordingly and fashionably.
