Several factors need to be considered when choosing a wedding tiara. The tiara is the crowning glory of that highlights the wedding dress and the bride. A wedding tiara can be worn with or without a veil and can be decorated with pearls or crystals to enhance the gown.

Important factors, the tiara should add to the stylishness of the gown. Think of the theme of the gown, if there are florals in the design; consider similar patterns in the tiara. Gowns covered with pearls or crystals compliment the same type of tiara. For modern style gowns, you may want to consider a more modern and simpler styled tiara, something with similar styled patterns or lines.

Tradition styling in the gown with shimmering finishes are so beautiful. Color and tones for tiaras need to be considered, silver tone, crystal and white pearls are great matches for a white gown. Gold tones and ivory pearls work with the ivory and off white colored gowns. Diamonds work with either, the choice may be dependent on your hair coloring and styling.

Necklines may have an effect on the shape of the tiara. Good practices to ensure a glowing finish are to match the shape of the tiara with the gown’s neckline. If you are wearing a v necked gown, the v shaped tiara works to compliment the design. A rounder neck line is about a softer look and a rounded tiara fits the appearance best.
The tiara should complement your face shape and work well with your selected hairstyle. Before you select the tiara, think about the hairstyle. Will you be wearing your hair short, in an an upsweep, a French twist or braid or down in long flowing waves. Next is color, hair shades are important when selecting the tiara tones, think about the final picture, blondes look fabulous in white crystal and silver tones. Brunettes or redheads are radiant in the ivory pearls and gold tones.

There are several types of tiaras that attach with combs or bands and knowing the hairstyle will help to select the right one making sure the tiara stays in place on the special day. The comb and pin tiaras work with upswept and long wave hairstyles. If you hair is naturally short the headband styled tiara is probably a better choice. You may also want to think about a lighter weight tiara that doesn’t require pinning it into place. If you are going to where your hair high, you can use a tall tiara or an elegant headband, which won’t get lost in the hairstyle.

Last is the shape of your face, this is your day and all eyes are going to looking at you. Give them a wonderful picture from head to toe. Round shaped and full faces can add some height, taller tiaras will work. Longer shaped and oval faces need to stay away from the taller tiaras; they will make your face look longer. Pick a tiara that is shorter in height or a headband style, but don’t skimp on the sparkle.
