Accessoring your Wedding- What to do and what not to do

Accessories can pull together a look or make you get odd looks if you go a little overboard. Unless your a part of the Gypsy clan, and those of you who watch My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding know what we are talking about, you may want to consider something that is classic rather then overly trendy.

Bridal Extensions
It is your dream day and you want your dream hair. Extensions are a great for adding a little bit of weight and volume to your hair without making you look like a completely different personm, if you style them correctly that is.

Adding volume and texture for updos can be easy with the use of extensions. Clip in's are affordable and you can always used them after the wedding. You don't want to go over board with the volume though

Adding fullness and length by wearing extenions is also great for wedding styles. You Don't want to go overboad with the length and end up with an odd style though. The hair should match your color and texture and compliment your look, not put all the focus on obsurdly long hair.

Adding Flowers,Hair Accessories and the fower girl
Adding some decorative pieces to your hair can add or take away from your look as a bride. You don't want to add pieces that will make you look like a walking satelite dish, so blingy that you can flag down an aircraft or have so many flowers you look like a walking garden. The idea is to draw attention to your face, not take away from it. You also want to keep your flower girls looking age appropriate, not like part of a pageant.
