Personalized Wedding Style

Weddings are no longer cookie-cutter events with the same music, dresses, hairstyles, favors and food.  The biggest trend taking hold in the wedding industry is that of personalization; and we don’t mean simply throwing up a monogram in every possible location. From serving casual Southern BBQ cookout food at a black tie venue to wearing a bright purple Zac Posen gown in lieu of a white wedding dress, couples are finding the freedom in tailoring their wedding day to their taste.

One of the best ways to create a truly unique wedding day look is to express your personal style.  There’s nothing more unfortunate than a beautiful bride whose hair, makeup, dress and accessories don’t reflect who she is.  With the pressures of moms, aunts, friends, grandmas, and the wedding industry in general, it’s hard to lose your own vision of how you want to look as a bride.

When you are feeling the pressure, the most important thing to remember is that your wedding day look should reflect you – only a little “better.”  And by better, we mean that you’ll probably get your hair and makeup professionally done, will be wearing a beautiful dress that is completely you, and will be rocking the perfect accessories to compliment the rest of your look.

Two of our favorite ways for brides to truly personalize their wedding day look are with fun shoes and a clutch.  We’ve dedicated plenty of posts to shoes, but here are some stylish clutches that are chock-full of personality, ready to be rocked by the right bride:

Leah Quilted Patent Miniaudiere

Matching your clutch to your favorite color (or wedding colors) is a snap with the Leah Quilted Patent miniaudiere. The vibrant little clutch comes in a fuschia, scarlet red or deep bronze.  We love the pretty rose detail, which gives the bag a feminine bridal touch.

Rockefeller Sophie Long Flap Clutch

Rafe is known for making great clutches, and this stylish little gem (pictured at top) is no exception. This clutch is crafted from genuine snakeskin in a rockstar metallic pewter, and the flap is embellished with diamond shaped gemstones and studs.  Make no mistake, this bag is for seriously stylish brides who want to make a statement on their wedding day.

Black Leah Lizard Miniaudiere

For brides who want to channel their inner Audrey Hepburn on their wedding, a little black lizard clutch like this one is perfect.  It’s timelessly elegant with a nod to vintage, and looks just like something Ms. Hepburn would have picked out herself.
