The perfect hair accessories to match your wedding
Flowers add beauty to everything. And if you want to incorporate some beautiful blooms into your upcoming wedding celebrations then adding a hint of floral elements to your wedding hair accessories is definitely the way to go. In terms of wedding hair accessories, combs, hair pins, and hair clips. But today we want to focus on one of our favorite wedding hair accessories in particular, and that is the flower crown.
Flower crowns are not just popular as wedding hair accessories. It is also a popular piece for music and art festivals. While it’s very common to see one now, its history can be traced as far back as ancient Greece, where people would often wear flower crowns over their heads. It was specifically worn during special days and occasions, such as when they have to honor the gods and goddesses. It was also given as a reward for winning tournaments and battles, much like the trophy.
Away from their ancient past, flower crowns have now become a fashionable accessory. It is also said that flower crowns symbolize love and fertility, which makes them the perfect piece to wear during your wedding. Aside from adding a hint of freshness and romance to your look, another reason we love flower crowns here at Les Couronnes De Victoire is that these wedding hair accessories are so versatile to wear. You can wear them with any type of hairstyle, whether it is a chignon, a braid, a sleek ponytail, or even a low bun.
If you are looking to incorporate some flower crowns into your wedding here are some of our suggestions for your type of wedding style:
Boho wedding
A bohemian wedding is probably one of the most popular wedding themes these days. The boho type of wedding is usually characterized by natural and organic elements that give the celebration that down-to-earth vibe. While the boho style can take inspiration from Woodstock to 19th century Paris to the more recent Coachella festival, all looks and their corresponding wedding hair accessories share the same two things: flowers and colors.
If you are looking for inspiration for your boho wedding, look no further than our Gypsy Queen look book. It features both our Monica and Sofia crowns, which we think would match your boho wedding.
Winter wedding
Many brides like to do their weddings during the summer but there is also beauty and charm in doing it during the wintertime. Aside from the white wonderland that is created when it snows, you can also be more creative with your bridal party looks as well as your wedding hair accessories. During winter, you can go for deeper and darker colors for your theme. Two colorful flower crowns that we could see in the winter are the Luna crown and the Natalia crown. The latter features preserved dark blue, gold, and black hydrangeas, while the former features red and white roses combined with preserved eucalyptus.
If you want to go for a more elegant flower crown for your winter wedding, we have the Aida flower crown, which is made with mixed rice flowers, garden roses, hydrangeas, and baby’s breath, preserved to last a lifetime.
Beach wedding
From the Caribbean to Southeast Asia, The beach is not just a popular destination now for people who want to work remotely, but for brides who want to add warmth and serenity to their wedding celebrations. For a beach wedding, we have two pieces that we think would make a great wedding hair accessory. First, we have the Rochelle crown, which encapsulates the flower of the sea: the coral. Our Rochelle crown is designed with small gold-plated coral branches that would compliment a beach bride’s look. Another beach element you can add to your look is pearls. And, for that, we have the precious Stella crown. Soft and feminine, the Stella crown is a piece of jewel you can add to your beach look. It combines Swarovski crystals, pearls, and preserved flowers, which you can match with either an Ilana comb or our Salome earrings.
Woodland wedding
The Woodland wedding is probably one of our favorite wedding themes. What we love about this theme is that it can be so dreamy and romantic without being too over the top with your wedding hair accessories. Because it is set amongst greenery and natural, it also exudes a rustic and natural vibe overall.
One of the elements of the woodland wedding look is often a flower crown. If you plan to have this type of wedding, you can basically go for any type of preserved flowers from our collections. If you want something that is a bit colorful and stands out amongst the muted colors of nature, we have the Ophelia crown, which features preserved English roses, wild berries, eucalyptus, hydrangea, ivy leaves, and gypsophila giving it that wonderful combination of red, pink, green, brown, and white hues. If you want something a bit more subdued, we have the Lucia crown, which is crafted from a blend of preserved foliage and flowers.
Modern wedding
There are many ways to wear wedding hair accessories to do a modern wedding. For us, we think a modern wedding stands out from the other themes through its minimalism. If you want a modern theme for your wedding, it's always good to keep it simple in terms of accessorizing and that also goes with the flower crown you choose. You can either go with something like our Gloria crown, which blends preserved baby’s breath flowers with contemporary chic features such as Swarovski crystals, small pearls, and gold-plated frames. It is simple and elegant and you can wear it with an elegant white slip dress. If you want something with a bit more pop of color, the Samantha crown is the perfect piece to brighten your look. It features yellow daisies that you can wear with a short wedding dress or even a wedding suit.
