Lord Thompson Manor on Completing the Bridal Ensemble
Lord Thompson Manor on Dec 10th 2009
When people see a Bride on her Big Day, they tend to notice two things right away: her brilliant smile and her elegant dress. At the Lord Thompson Manor, we know that a Bride’s Wedding Day look doesn’t stop there. We’re always happy to help our Brides decide exactly what to wear, and we’ve got a list of possible head-to-foot additions they may want to consider.
Many Brides continue the tradition of a Wedding Veil, but some opt for a few crowning sparkles. Beautifully crafted hair accessories might include flowers or jewels, and nothing can make a Bride feel more like a princess than a head wrap or tiara.
It is important for a Bride to find balance between earrings and necklace, if she chooses to wear both. Both of these accessories can be small, subtle decorations for the Bride’s ensemble; or, one can be a large, glamorous feature, accented by the other.
A Bride’s arms can be perfectly elegant bare, or with only the sleeves of her well-chosen gown. However, she might also add warmth or a different look with a shawl or wrap that matches or complements her dress. A Bride might also elect to wear gloves—the Lord Thompson Manor recommends fingerless or gauntlet-style, to make the wedding rings easier to manage—bracelets, or a beautiful antique watch.
Finally, a Bride’s shoes are a crucial part of her Wedding Ensemble. A Bride can choose heels or flats; open or closed toes; white, patterned or metallic—her choices are virtually limitless. Many Brides have recently been embracing the new trend of red shoes, and some even choose other bright, bold colors. The Lord Thompson Manor is ready to accommodate all choices by setting our Brides up with our Keep It Simple Spa pedicures the day before the wedding, and keeping comfortable flip flops around if ever they want to give their feet a rest.
