Rhinestone Tiaras and Bridal Headpieces
From LoveToKnow Weddings
Choose from a wide variety of rhinestone tiaras and bridal headpieces to accent your gown and wedding day hairstyle.
Why Brides Choose Rhinestone Tiaras and Bridal Headpieces
Hair accents and headpiece jewelry that sparkles can illuminate a bride’s face on her big day. Drawing eyes to her face, the headpiece should accent the overall bridal look, as well as complement her hairstyle.
Brides often choose rhinestone tiaras and bridal headpieces to achieve the look they want. While there is a variety of options for headpieces (including flowers, pearls, or ribbons), a rhinestone piece is a glamorous addition to the bride’s wardrobe.
Cost is another factor for many brides who are looking for a little glitter in their wedding day jewelry. Precious and semi-precious stones and crystals can make the wedding budget over the top. Moderately priced quality rhinestone headpieces and tiaras look stunning while staying within budget.
Rhinestone Tiaras
Tiaras have become a more trendy option for headpiece jewelry in the last decade. Bridal tiaras can be as tall and ornate or as small and simple as a bride wants.
When choosing a rhinestone tiara, take the following factors into consideration:
- How elaborate is the rest of my jewelry?
- What style of wedding am I having?
- Does my gown have color accents?
- What kind of hairstyle will I have?
Extravagant, large tiaras complete a Cinderella theme wedding perfectly. They also look nice with big fanciful updos. Smaller, more delicate tiaras complement an extensive range of looks, and can be worn with curly or sleek updos or even with some down styled hair.
With such a wide array of bridal tiaras to choose from, you can often find one that matches your gown or wedding theme. A bride with a butterfly wedding theme may find a tiara with butterflies in it, while others may want snowflakes, hearts, or flowers.
Bridal Headpieces
Tiaras are not the only kind of headpiece you can find with rhinestones. Rhinestone accents can be found on:
Rhinestone “snaps” are a fabulous way to add some sparkle to your hair without going overboard. They are simply a small stone with a snap backing. The look achieved is like you have small gemstones simply floating throughout your hairdo. Simple stones or flowers look nice in most hairstyles.
To Veil or Not
Wearing a veil is a personal choice. Just because you wear a rhinestone tiara or bridal headpiece does not mean you cannot also wear a veil. Your veil may actually come attached to a rhinestone studded comb or tiara. If not, you can always add one to the top of your head or underneath your updo.
If you want to add some glamour to your veil, choose one that has rhinestones in it. They can be scattered, or part of a floral or scroll patter, or simply line the edge of the veil. A veil with a few rhinestones can complement a larger headpiece, while a veil with a more intricate rhinestone design would look nice with simple barrettes or combs.
Bridal Party Rhinestone Headpieces
Rhinestone tiaras and hair jewelry is not only for the bride. A small rhinestone flower girl headpiece with a similar style to the bride’s can make the bridal party look well dressed.
While tiaras for bridesmaids are inappropriate, you can buy other rhinestone hair accessories for them. Colored rhinestones to match their dresses or the main flower colors look nice. Barrettes and pins are good choices for bridesmaid hair pieces without going overboard.
Give your bridal party members jewelry gifts and include matching hair accessories as part of it.
No matter what kind of rhinestone tiara or bridal headpiece you choose for your wedding day hairdo, it will add extra class to your bridal look and your party.
