| ACCESSORIES | You've got the dress of your dreams. It's beautiful. It's everything you ever dreamed of but it just is lacking something. It needs those little finishing touches.
| You need to Accessorise.
To tiara or not tiara. That is the question. Tiaras are not the tacky little shimmering mess they used to be. Nowadays designers are creating beautiful classical pieces. Tiaras, crowns or coronets, whatever takes your fancy the crowning glory they will be.
Many are simple and understated, others are shimmering with jewels. Whatever you want there is sure to be a designer on manandwife.co.uk who can create the tiara of your dreams.
| Working with one of the designers advertising on manandwife.co.uk you can create a piece that works with the theme of your wedding so the look simply stunning. Oh and of course the other thing you want - comfort. But I am afraid to tell you girlies that comfort comes way down the list on your wedding day. The main thing is you look fantastic.
But there is so much more to accessorising that just tiaras. Shoes, bags, a stunning necklace, earrings, hairpins and of course veils.
| To veil or not to veil. Funny really because most of us trot down the aisle with all the formal regatta without taking any notice of why we are actually wearing all the bits and bobs. Veils are really interesting as they were originally worn by unmarried women as a sign of their modesty. Then at the ceremony, brides wore veils as a sign of submission and a promise to obey her husband to be. Then he got the shock of his life as when the veil is lifted that is often the first time he has clapped eyes on his wife. Can you imagine how some reacted? I am sure not all were able to conceal their relief or complete horror!
| The veil became fashionable in the sixteenth century with lace veils being made popular by Queen Victoria after her wedding in 1840.
| So it would seem behind every wedding tradition there is a story and here at manandwife.co.uk we will try and fill you in on all the juicy bits! Just thank goodness we don't all have to walk around covering our faces, although it could save on make-up, hairdressers, time sorting yourself out….hold on…perhaps these women were not as daft as it would seem!!
And lets not forget you men out there. You need cufflinks, bow ties, ties, waistcoats and of course the wedding night undies. So whatever your need we are here for you.
