Bridal Headpieces

I love creating custom bridal headpieces! It is such a pleasure to personally work with each bride to create all of the veils, hats, birdcage veils, and fascinators. It is so much fun to brainstorm with each of you to come up with the perfect piece for your big day!

Some of my different headpiece types include: Birdcage veils, blushers, long traditional veils, pillbox hats, fabric flower fascinators, feather fascinators, headbands and the new “Kate Middleton” hat.

Feather fascinators have really come into their own as of late. A feather fascinator is a great way to top off your outfit perfectly for your big day or for any special occasion. Feather fascinators can be made from a variety of feathers including marabou or ostrich. They can be put on a comb or a clip. Because all my fascinators are completely custom made for each bride or bridesmaid, you can choose the size, colors, types of feathers and the adornments included. They can be worn individually or with a birdcage veil depending on the look you are trying to achieve.

Pill box hats are one of my specialties. These are a classic look from the 1960’s that many brides are opting for because they are so unique. There are very few who actually make pillbox hats anymore. I love them! They can be done in a variety of ways to customize them to complement your wedding gown.

One of my newer hats is the “Kate Middleton” style of hat. It is a small tear-drop shaped hat worn high on the head, usually adorned with lace, Russian veiling and a few strategically placed feathers, and sometimes a piece of bling. Kate Middleton and other London socialites wear these frequently. They are such a fun way to add romance and fun to a wedding.

Headbands can be any width you choose, from very narrow to wide. They can include veiling, flowers, beads, bling or anything you or I can imagine. These look especially great on brides with ultra-short hair! Flower girls love them too!

Birdcage veils can be made in almost any length, shape and size. I like to make them separately so they can be used with hats, flowers, feathers or headbands! They are such a fun accessory!
