“All brides are beautiful,” many people think. To some extent this is true. Elegant wedding dresses give girls a solemn and unique look. But if you want to be not just beautiful, but also unique, you need to think through the image of the bride to the smallest detail. This includes wedding hairstyles, wedding makeup, and much more. And we will help you not only choose the perfect wedding dress, but also not lose sight of a single detail. And you will become a truly unique newlywed, the most beautiful your guests have ever seen.
What is included in the image of the bride?
Let's talk about what goes into being a happy newlywed. This is at a minimum:
- Luxurious dress for a wedding. It’s unlikely that anyone can imagine a bride without this attribute. Wedding dresses come in short and long, fluffy and narrow, white and colored, plain and patterned. Which one is right for you? Do you want to understand what type of dress is “yours” before going shopping? Then this section will be useful to you: you will be able to understand which dress will best fit into your wedding look.
- Wedding hairstyles. Oh, there is a huge variety of them too. Hairstyles for a wedding can be complex or simple, with wavy or straight hair, with braids, flowers, beads... We will help you navigate this variety and choose the perfect hairstyle.
- Wedding make-up. This is perhaps one of the most complex details that make up the bride's image. After all, it is extremely important that the makeup for a wedding is in harmony with the dress, the hairstyle, the bouquet, and the decorations. Having trouble choosing one? Use our tips!
- Veil. There are also a huge number of varieties! Short, long, with a pattern, without it, with embroidery... How to choose the right one for a dress? Or maybe you think that you don’t need a veil? Then it needs to be replaced with something. And again a painful choice: to use a wreath or a diadem instead of a symbol? Or maybe just get by with a decoration of fresh flowers? How will the wedding dress and the bride’s image as a whole be combined with such decor? To understand this, you need to see it from the outside. And you have this opportunity: we will offer photographs of different images of brides, with and without veils.
- The bride's bouquet. One more important detail. Have you ever seen a bride somewhere without a bouquet? Hardly. Florists offer wedding bouquets for every taste: lush and modest, white and multi-colored, from flowers and fruits, and even from vegetables... You still have no idea what kind of bouquet you would like, and you haven’t seen the right options? You will definitely find something for yourself in this section. We regularly update our collections of photographs and advice, and offer brides wedding bouquets that meet the latest trends in wedding fashion. You will definitely find your bouquet!
What decorations are needed?
What jewelry should you buy? In principle, you can do without them, especially if the dress is bright. Some models completely cover the décolleté and neck area, so the necklace simply won’t be visible. Earrings should only be worn if your ears are open.
The bracelet will emphasize the elegance of the bride's hands, but can distract attention from the dress. And if you choose a dress with long sleeves, then such an accessory will not be needed at all. The ring is undesirable, because all attention should be paid to the treasured one.
You should not wear several jewelry at once, it will look too pretentious and colorful. It is better to limit yourself to two or three accessories. Moreover, it is advisable to purchase a set, since it is very difficult to select several separate and similar elements in style.
The bride is the key figure of the wedding
No, we do not suggest that brides compete with grooms for supremacy at the holiday. This is their common celebration. But have you ever thought that it is a woman’s wedding image that becomes the center around which everything else is built? According to the appearance of the bride, the groom's suit, the decoration of the hall, the table decor are chosen... It is important that the wedding dress is in harmony with the outfits of the bridesmaids or witnesses. So that the bride’s bouquet does not “conflict” with the overall floral design. So that the wedding hairstyles in question match the decor of the cake. So that wedding makeup does not look alien, as if existing separately...
That is why it is so important for the bride to think about what she will wear, how she will decorate herself, and which wedding bouquets will absolutely not suit her. This is difficult to do if you have no experience. But not every bride has the opportunity to turn to the services of a stylist. This section is your personal stylist. Get acquainted with the details of brides' looks, study the details, try them on yourself... And you will be able to create your own unique wedding look.
Signs of a forbidden nature
There are certain rules for choosing wedding jewelry that have been passed down from mother to daughter for many centuries. Among them are the following prohibitions:
1. The bride should not wear jewelry with real pearls to her wedding. This is especially true for the necklace, even if it is incredibly beautiful and harmonizes perfectly with the wedding dress. According to the legend, pearls bring tears. This does not apply to the solemn ceremony, where you can sometimes meet touching tears, but to family life. If you still want pearls, you can choose a dress with pearl trim.
2. At a wedding, the bride’s hands should not be decorated with any ring other than the wedding ring. They will only distract attention from the holiday.
3. You cannot pin flowers on your belt, as this may have a negative impact on childbirth.
Signs and superstitions regarding bridesmaid hair decorations and other accessories

You cannot rent wedding hair accessories and other decorations; it is better to make them yourself or buy them;
- a bride wearing a hat, as opposed to a wreath or veil, is in for a quick breakdown of the marriage;
- You can't sell the veil.

Natural beauty
It’s sad and funny to watch a bride who, for the sake of strange other people’s ideas about beauty, dooms herself to torment on her wedding day. Uncomfortable shoes that make it impossible to move, an elaborate hairstyle that makes you look like a statue all day, tons of makeup that strives to leave marks on everything around – all this is very far from beauty. Maximum lightness, airiness and simplicity create a harmonious image and the right mood.

And we will provide food for your imagination.
Weightless dress
Designers are increasingly abandoning dense, heavy fabrics. The general trend towards naturalness and lightness can be seen here too. Airy tulle, weightless chiffon, thin silk, gathered into multi-layered skirts, freely flowing, enveloping the bride's figure, create a fragile, delicate image - to match the newlywed.

Glitter is prohibited
Deliberate shine, be it on the face, outfit or hair, looks cheap and tasteless. Forget about sequins, glitters and rhinestones. The exceptions are noble fabrics, natural stones in jewelry and, of course, a happy sparkle in the bride’s eyes. Instead of artificial radiance, it is better to emphasize the girl’s beauty with delicate and noble details: the unusual color of the dress, lace, flowers - something that will allow you to see the bride’s individuality, and will not overshadow her with false sparkle.
