Bridal Look

Your bridal look will be one of the focal points at every wedding but here especially, so rock something mermaid-inspired! Don’t afraid of wearing a bold sequin dress reminding of fish scales, or an aqua-colored sparkling gown, or maybe an ombre one. Some daring brides even rock bold red hair and crazy shell tiaras for an Ariel-inspired look. Even if you don’t want a very eye-catching and bold dress or crazily red hair, you can always wear amazing accessories inspired by the sea: sea shell, star fish necklaces, headpieces, tiaras and belts that will easily turn you into a mermaid and add some sparkle to remind of the fish scales.
