Once the wedding dress has been chosen the bride must decide upon her accessories. She should choose them carefully to ensure that they fit in with the style of the dress and that they complement, rather than clutter, her look.

Good quality underwear and shoes, suitable to the dress, should be chosen. The veil is usually bought from the same shop as the wedding dress. The choice of veil will usually influence whether a wedding headpiece or tiara is to be worn.

Depending on the weather, a bridal cover-up, wraps or jackets may be required. Jewellery must be carefully chosen to suit both the wedding dress and hairstyle.
