Day accessories

A complete guide

Different types of
wedding day accessories

When it comes to wedding day accessories, the right choices can transform your look and enhance your special day. Veils, for instance, add a touch of classic elegance, whether you opt for a sweeping floor-length or a more subtle style. Shoes are another crucial accessory, offering both style and comfort as you dance the night away. At Mimco, we offer a range of unique wedding accessories, including everything from jewellery to bags and delicate hairpins to complete your ensemble and ensure you look the part.

Essential
bridal accessories

Choosing the right bridal accessories is key to enhancing your wedding dress and perfectly aligning with your wedding theme. Essential wedding dress accessories include bridal jewellery, like elegant earrings, delicate bracelets and sophisticated hairpieces that complement your gown's style and embellishments. Embrace the tradition of "something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" by incorporating meaningful accessories that reflect each element.

Stunning
bridal jewellery

When it comes to bridal jewellery, selecting pieces that make a statement while complementing your wedding dress is essential. Bridal necklaces are a classic choice, offering a touch of elegance—whether you prefer a delicate chain or a bold, sparkling piece. Statement earrings also play an important role, adding a touch of sparkle that will frame your face beautifully. Choose jewellery for your wedding day that enhances your dress’s neckline and reflects your personal style. From timeless pearls to colourful gemstones, the right jewellery really is the cherry on top of your bridal look.

Bridal bags for
the wedding day

A chic bridal bag is the perfect finishing touch to your wedding day ensemble. Whether you opt for a sleek wedding clutch or a more spacious wedding bag, selecting the right bridal bag ensures you carry your essentials in style. Our evening bags, often embellished with crystals or pearls, adds a touch of elegance and sophistication. Need more room? A refined wedding bag can hold all your necessities while complementing your dress. Choose a design that not only enhances your look but also fits seamlessly into your overall wedding aesthetic, ensuring you look and feel fabulous throughout the day (and long into the night!).

Elegant bridal
hair accessories

Elevate your wedding day look with elegant bridal hair accessories that add a touch of glamour and sophistication. Tiaras are a timeless choice, offering a regal finish to any bridal hairstyle and capturing attention with their sparkling details. Bridal headbands can also provide a chic and contemporary twist, perfect for adding a touch of modern elegance. For a more subtle accent, consider delicate hair clips adorned with pearls or crystals, which can beautifully complement any hairstyle.

THE BEST
bridesmaid accessories

Choosing the best bridesmaid accessories is key to ensuring your bridal party looks coordinated and chic. Bridesmaid jewellery should complement both the bridesmaids' dresses and the overall wedding theme, whether it’s dainty necklaces, elegant bracelets, or matching earrings. Bridesmaid bags are also essential, providing a stylish and practical way for your bridal party to carry their (and your!) essentials. From classic clutches to sleek, modern bags, find a design that suits your theme and enhances the bridesmaids' outfits. Additionally, consider thoughtful bridesmaid gifts that show your appreciation and complete their ensemble, ensuring they feel special and valued on the big day.

Stylish wedding
guest accessories

Elevate your look as a wedding guest with stylish accessories that blend elegance and sophistication. Wedding guest hair accessories, such as decorative headbands or chic hairpins, can add a touch of glamour to your hairstyle and complement your outfit. Choosing the right wedding guest accessories, from statement necklaces to delicate bracelets, enhances your overall look and ensures you feel confident throughout the celebration. When selecting jewellery to wear to a wedding, consider pieces that coordinate with your outfit while maintaining a refined balance.


Do brides have to wear a
veil on their wedding day?

Brides don't have to wear a veil on their wedding day. While veils are a traditional and classic bridal accessory, they’re entirely optional. The choice to wear a veil—or any specific accessory—depends on the bride's personal style, the theme of the wedding, and what makes them feel comfortable and beautiful. Many modern brides opt for alternative accessories like tiaras, headbands, or decorative hair clips, or choose to forgo a headpiece altogether in favour of a more minimalist look. Ultimately, it's about what suits the bride's vision for their special day.

Should bridesmaids’
accessories match
each other?

Bridesmaids' accessories don’t necessarily have to match each other exactly, but they can coordinate to ensure a cohesive look. Matching accessories can help create a unified appearance and reinforce the overall theme of the wedding. However, it’s also perfectly acceptable to choose accessories that complement each other rather than match perfectly, allowing for individual styles and personal touches.

For example, you might opt for the same type of jewellery—like earrings or necklaces—but in different styles or colours that complement each bridesmaid’s dress and personal taste. Coordinating accessories with a shared theme or colour palette can achieve a balanced and elegant look while still allowing each bridesmaid to express their unique style.

Can you DIY wedding
accessories?

You can definitely DIY wedding accessories! Many brides and bridal parties choose to create their own accessories to add a personal touch, but if you’re keen to relieve some of the stress of the big day—we recommend letting Mimco take the lead!
