Hair Accessories for Beach Weddings

If you're planning on getting married on a golden sandy beach under a cloudless blue sky and warm sun then you probably aren't the type of woman who wanted a big white traditional wedding in a church with a huge white dress, train and veil. You might not even be the type to wear a wedding tiara, but prefer something more causal or low key. So what are your options for decorating your hair at your beach wedding?

If you're wearing your hair down, then a side tiara or wedding headband might be the easiest option. They're simple to wear and can easily be slipped into place without the need for a hair dresser or a friend to help you. If you're not a headband kind of girl and to be honest I don't feel like any type of headband suits me then you might want to choose something else.

A lot of brides wear their hair half up and half down which gives them plenty of options for decorating their wedding hair. The first thing that springs to mind is a wedding comb which can be worn to the side or the back of the hair, again these are pretty easy to place but you might need to have a few practice sessions just to make sure that you can slide it into your hair at the right angle and make sure it stays were it's supposed too.


If you don't fancy the weight of a bridal comb them you could always choose grips. These could be made from crystals, pearls or diamante and be as simple or as detailed as you like. They don't need to be functional, so if you've used other things to keep your hair in place you can just slide them in to your hair where you want them. After a headband these are probably the easiest bridal hair accessory to place. You can get most wedding hair grips designs on hair pins. These are the longer 2 pronged pins which hold buns and other chunky hair styles in place. If you're used to styling your hair with regular hair pins then you shouldn't have any problems using these.

Bridal hairvines are becoming more popular for beach weddings, this is because of their range of uses and the causal style. Depending on how you're planning on wearing your hairvine you may need a friend on hairdresser to style your hair properly, but if you're using a short hairvine just to highlight the parting of your hair or follow the sweep of your fringe you shouldn't have a problem securing it yourself with a few hair grips.

Of course if you want to there's nothing stopping you from wearing a wedding tiara at your beach wedding, but I find many brides prefer a more casual look.
