Bridal shoes and jewellery advice

We’re eloping to Gretna in May which is all very exciting and definitely the right decision for us but I’m finding it hard not being able to run outfit ideas past anyone!

This is my dress. What kind of shoes and accessories do you think would suit? I was thinking pointed toe heels, pearl drop earrings and a delicate tennis type gold bracelet.

Maybe with some kind of hair vine? I’m planning to have my hair up to show off the v neck on the back of the dress. Thank you!

It really depends on your tastes, wear whatever makes you happy. And budget of course

Diamond drop earrings (not necessarily huge drop, especially if you have your hair up) could be nice with the tennis bracelet (they’d be the same color gold though imo)

As for hair, a little difficult to advise without knowing your hair type, face shape (for me)

Thank you! Yes, Diamond drop earrings sound like a very good idea. I’m dark blonde - long, straight, thick hair and a small, oval shaped face. I was maybe think of having it curled and put it a kind of loose bun.

Sounds lovely. Yes pulled back can be good if you have thick hair and a small face. You could try those loose buns with large side braids, love those. I like the curling idea too. With your hair you can probably do anything really, go with your tastes (they’re not hard to try at home, have fun experimenting!)
Do make sure to try them all with the veil for where to put security pins though (at the hairdressers most likely this part) if you’re planning on wearing it.
If you have one of those basic curling irons at home, have fun trying ! (Not too much, don’t damage your hair!)

I wonder if hair vine might be a bit overload if diamond earrings and the pretty top lace, but then again, not really such a thing as overload on your wedding day, wear a tiara if you wish ! Practice hair vines with cheap ones if you want ! Have fun !
