Planning your own wedding is so stressful and such hard work that you may find yourself feeling extremely overwhelmed by the whole thing. This is where “to do†lists come in very handy and will mean that you won’t forget about the little things. In this article we are going to help you compile your own wedding dress “to do†list that will include finding the right dress for you and also making sure you pick some essential accessories too. The accessories that go with your wedding dress can really make your outfit stand out. It just depends on which accessories you decide to use. Many people will go with headgear and shoes, which are obviously apparent but only some brides will go on to add some more accessories to their wedding outfit. These accessories can include things like gloves, hair clips and veils. All of these accessories aren’t essential but they will help you to feel beautiful and really enjoy your big day that little bit more. What sort of accessories should you go for and which ones will suit your wedding day? With so many things to plan and organize, it can be hard to take the time to think about these things so let’s talk about them briefly so you can decide more easily. Firstly let’s discuss head wear. Some people will want to have really traditional wedding and want to have a veil so that when their groom lifts it at the altar, he is stunned by their beauty. Other brides would just rather have some decorative hair clips to put into their hair do so it really s down to personal preference. If you want to pick a veil then one thing to make sure of is that it isn’t too heavy. This will weigh your head down and will give you a headache or make you uncomfortable through the day. Little things such as this will make the whole difference between a good wedding day and a fantastic one. If you want to go for something simple then why not choose a nice hair do that you can accessorise with some elegant clips or braids that will give it the classic look. When it comes to footwear, shoes are pretty essential (unless you are getting married on a beautiful sandy beach that is). You will need to not only find shoes that suit your outfit but shoes that also feel comfortable enough to wear for up to 12 hours. These shoes can be a matching color to your wedding dress or they may be a signature color which will coordinate with your wedding color scheme. If you are going to go for a statement color with your shoes then it might be a good idea to have another section of this color somewhere else such as a wrap, shawl or bag of the same color. This means that you can tie in a normally white outfit into the color scheme of the wedding and really stand out too. Of course you don’t always have to accessorize your outfit and you can stick with a beautiful, elegant dress that will say it all for you. This kind of dress may cost the earth but it will be well worth it when it comes to the big day and how beautiful you will look in those pictures that you will be able to treasure forever.
