I have long loved these colorful accessories in Etsy’s “My American Gothic Wedding” email from last July:

The only reason I didn’t share them sooner was that I couldn’t find them on Etsy’s site! But now I figure they are simply too beautiful to keep to myself. Plus, there are plenty of other vibrant and inspiring accessories on Etsy, like these little gems:

I think that the most fabulous brides all have one important thing in common—they all pay special attention to the details that make them look unique. If you betray your distinct sense of style on you big day, you risk looking like a catalog bride!

One of the best ways to avoid this trap is to shop for handmade, unique pieces that you instantly fall in love with. Etsy is full of fun little gems like these wedding hair accessories, so it makes a great place to start!

If you’re opting not to wear a veil on your big day, there are still lots of options for the perfect wedding hair style.   In fact, I just fell in love with some gorgeous accessories and couldn’t wait to share them with you.
