I'm in the process of getting all of my accessories for the wedding day, even though I have over a year to do so lol. I like to have everything done well in advance!
So far for my accessories I have my veil (which I just purchased from the bridal salon where I purchased my dress from), my ceremony shoes and flats for later on in the night and a purse to carry all of my emergency essentials in. I really it isn't very necessary to get a purse for the day of but really wanted one.
I'm still deciding if I want to purcase a hair piece or not and then just need my jewelry. Because I don't tend to wear a lot of jewelry on a daily basis because I'm a nurse and I'm not supposed to at work, I was thinking of just buying earrings and thats it. Do you think I should add anything else?
Here are some pictures of what I've purchased already and the pieces I was thinking of still buying.
I ended up spending much more on my veil than I anticipated. I tried to find a few online first for a cheap price but couldn't find what I was really looking for. I thought I wanted just a plain veil with nothing on it because my dress already has a lot going on with all of the lace but ended up going in a completely different direction. I got a 15% discount on this one which helped save a little bit of money lol The detailing of the lace matches my dress perfectly..which is funny because they are two totally different companies!
My Veil
These are my ceremony shoes! Such a good deal! I got them for $65 USD from 6pm.com.
Reception slip ons
These are the shoes I also purchased from 6pm.com to slip on later on in the evening when my feet start to hurt from my heels. I purchased these for $35 USD and are by Betsey Johnson.
Reception Bag
This is the bag I purchased to carry all of my emergency essentials in and my cell phone. Also from 6pm.com and only $63 USD. Also from Betsey Johnson! The inside of the bag is my favorite!

Items I still need to buy
These are the earrings I have been thinking of purchasing. I normally wear studs and have sensitive ears usually to chear jewelry. These are rose gold plated sterling silver. I'm hoping they wouldn't bother my ears. I'm also concerned that because I'm so used to only ever wearing the tiniest little studs in my ears that these would drive me insane with how heavy they may be. What do you think of these? They're from Etsy.
Earrings
I have also been thinking of purchasing a hair piece for after the ceremony when I would be taking my veil out of my hair. I know that I won't want to wear the veil for any longer than that as it is cathedral length and will drive me bonkers. Here are some of the hair pieces I'm thinking of.
Hair piece # 1
Hair piece # 2
Hair piece # 3
I think I like the first one the most. What do you all think?
