How to Dress Like a Princess for Your Wedding
By ufstar82, eHow Member
Step 1
Check magazines and websites for current bridal fashion trends. Look for full ball gowns with crystal bead work to bring out the "princess" theme.
Step 2
Make appointments with bridal salons and bring photos of gowns you like. Try on gowns that compliment your body shape and that make you feel like a princess! Ask the store which colors their gowns are available in--princess style gowns can be ordered in baby blue, pink, or champagne colors in addition to white and ivory.
Step 3
Try on accessories to complete your princess ensemble. A tiara is a classic way to really feel like royalty. Choose between long chandelier earrings or a rhinestone or diamond necklace. Wearing both can look too heavy around the face.
Step 4
Glass slippers may not be realistic (or comfortable), but jeweled heels should do the trick. A closed, pointy-toe shoe is elegant and timeless. A strappy, jeweled sandal is a more modern twist for a princess.
Step 5
Consider an up-do for your hair. Teasing the hair to add height at the crown of the head will keep you looking sophisticated and glamorous. A chignon or French twist are classics, and large curled tendrils pinned up loosely will feel more relaxed.
Step 6
Finally, top off the ensemble with a cathedral-length veil. Add volume with two to three layers of tulle and set the veil just behind the tiara. For added detail, choose a veil with beading or scattered rhinestones.
