The venue is booked, the cake is on order and your bridesmaids have agreed to wear the dress you’ve chosen for them. Now it’s time to sort out your outfit. As a bride-to-be, choosing a wedding dress can be one of the most important outfit decisions you will have to make, and, as with any big decision you’ll need assistance. This is why we’ve rounded up the best wedding dresses on the high street, made and edit of the alternative wedding shoes you’ll most likely want to wear with them – now for the final touch, the accessories. 

Bridal accessories used to only be found in specialist boutiques and wedding shops but now you can find them anywhere. In fact, you needn’t wear specific “bridal” accessories at all. 

We’ve found the four key accessories every bride-to-be could want and they’re all from the high street and designer brands we wear in everyday life. So, from the Zara hair clips you’ll wear for the wedding, and beyond, to the Shrimps bag you’ll style into your outfits forever more. These are the accessories you’ll actually want to wear. Note: unfortunately Meghan Markle’s royal crown isn’t included *sob* but they’ll make you feel like a princess all the same. 

Sophie Buhai 18kt gold-plated and faux pearl hoop earrings

Steer away from the typical stud bridal earrings and look to the mini hoop. These pearl embellished beauties will be the perfect option for any modern bride-to-be. Not just for special occasions either, you’ll end up wearing them on repeat. 

£300,  Sophie Buhai

Mango resin pendant earrings

This beaded bag will go with any wedding dress style from sleek, to boho.
