12 Bridal Hair Accessories For The Modern Bride

#1 Debbie Carlisle 

We just can’t get enough of Sheffield-based accessory designer, Debbie Carlisle’s whimsical bridal designs. Endlessly inspired by the English countryside and nature itself, there’s a certain magical whimsy that comes with one of her hair pins or trailing vines. And, if you’re a pearl kind of girl, you’ll just love her Luxury pearl Bridal Hairpins, Prudence (available in sets of small, medium and large). Just perfect for pinning into a heavenly updo for the aisle.

The ideal addition to any hen party, be it a weekend stay in a rustic country cottage with your favourite gals or five days in Bali, these nifty hair ties are not only cute AF but super useful too. Tie up tousled locks for a quick dip in the pool, or wear on your wrist for hen party cool (and, they’re only 85p)! 

#3 Rebecca Anne Designs

Here at Team Hen we’re particularly smitten with the designer’s Ribbon creation, not just because of its versatility but because it can be beautifully customised too!

#9 Ashley Wild Bridal  

Why not go all out bride-to-be and take to the aisle in one of Ashley Wild Bridal’s stunning veil headpieces? This scintillating design by Ashley Wild is - romantically - called Kiss, and we love her full face merrywidow veil and organza flowers. Not only is this the ideal alternative for a more traditional veil, but it’s super chic and perfect for wearing with a more paired-back bridal look. Go on, make waves with your bridal style.
