How to Choose Wedding Accessories for Your Dress: Written from Sandy Springs, Georgia

To quote legendary financier Sanford Weill, "details create the main issue." Though Weill was likely referring to business, nothing could be more accurate when it comes to wedding style. Brides often focus so intently on the gowns which they neglect the significance of details; namely, accessories.

Wedding accessories like headpieces, shoes and jewelry add those special finishing touches to produce a total image of wedding ensemble perfection. But not just any veil or satin heel will do. With a little amount of know-how, you can creatively coordinate your lifestyle. Here are some tips for coordinating your wedding accessories to match your personal style.

A must in most color for glamour girls spanning various ages.

Shoes, needless to say, are important to this particular beautiful bride. Heels. The higher the better. The Dyeable Satin Platform with Ornament Ring Detail does not disappoint. This stacked platform is hip, saucy and comes with a sparkling rhinestone brooch accent for added glam power.
