The art of choosing timeless bridal hair accessories lies in selecting pieces that enhance your natural beauty, complement your wedding theme, and resonate with your personal style. Opting for a timeless look doesn’t mean your pieces can’t capture your personality and your personal style. Here’s how to choose hair accessories that will stand the test of time and remain beautiful mementos of your special day.
When it comes to timeless bridal styling, classic styles are key. Traditional bridal hair accessories such as tiaras, combs and hair pins, have adorned brides for generations. Their enduring appeal lies in their simplicity and versatility, making them suitable for various hairstyles and wedding themes.
If you’re looking to incorporate some personality into a classic tiara or hair pin, consider bringing a sentimental detail into the piece such as a specific flower or gemstone.
The art of choosing timeless bridal hair accessories comes down to a focus on quality, thoughtful design, beautiful timeless details and sentimental designs that have meaning to you.
Many of the timeless looks in history feature pearls, crystals, flowers and fine lacework. They are synonymous with bridal beauty and elegance. Their timeless appeal and ability to complement various bridal looks make them popular choices for hair accessories and veils.

Your bridal hair accessories should harmonise with your wedding dress and hairstyle. Match embellishments and details of your dress with your adornments. For example, if your dress features lace or beadwork, choose accessories with similar elements.
Your hairstyle plays a very important role in setting the style of your overall look. Updos are a beautiful foundation for tiaras and combs, while loose wavs or half-up hairstyles pair well with bridal hair pins and headbands.

Incorporating sentimental details into your bridal hair accessories adds a personal touch and makes them more meaningful. Wearing a family heirloom, such as a vintage hair comb or pin, adds a sentimental and timeless element. It’ss a beautiful way to honour family traditions and carry a piece of your heritage with you.
Consider custom-made accessories that reflect your personal style and story. Whether it’s incorporating your favourite colour or a design inspired by your heritage, customised pieces are unique and timeless.

While timeless accessories often lean towards classic styles, they can still reflect your wedding them without compromising elegance.
For vintage style weddings, opt for accessories with antique-finishes, such as antique silver tones. Details like filigree or art deco patterns are classic elements within history.
If your wedding has a bohemian vibe, consider flower crowns or accessories with natural elements.
For a modern, minimalist look, choose sleek and simple accessories. A set of pearl hair pins or a thin crystal headband can add just the right amount of detail without taking away from the beauty of your look.

In some cultures, rain on your wedding day is a sign of good luck. Not only did Charlie and Sara have rain, their day was extra lucky because they also had strong winds gushing through their Ontario woodland wedding venue. This made for some very romantic, wind-swept photos, lots of laughter and great stories to share.
For her wind-proof wedding day ensemble, Sara wore a simple, soft silk gown, statement earrings, black leather jacket and our chapel length AMORA wedding veil. With the sheer tulle of the veil catching in the breeze and her dazzling smile – we were truly blown away by Sara’s chic wedding day look.
Sara and Charlie’s ceremony and reception took place at Wheatfield Estate in Canada, surrounded by pine and spruce trees. The couple highlighted the beautiful, natural surroundings with simple decor and styling.
“I love the way our planner executed the tablescape; taupe linen napkins, white dish wear, gold cutlery, black name tags and candle holders, and of course the gorgeous floral arrangements as the centrepiece,” enthuses Sara. “I have always loved toffee-coloured roses and these were the highlight of our floral arrangements for me!”
Sara was limited when choosing a wedding dress, as Ontario, Canada, was in strict lockdown. This meant she needed to buy her dress online and luckily she came across Australian, online bridal brand, Grace Loves Lace and fell in love with their Dove gown.
“I loved the crossed straps and the V-back. I particularly liked that the V-back was not too low, it hit the mid back, which was flattering but not too revealing,” says Sara. “I opted for the 40 cm train (you can also customise it to have no train or an 80 cm train). The material is so soft and comfortable too, and it is double-layered so it is not see-through.”
To elevate her simple dress, Sara wore statement earrings by Australian jewellery designer, Christie Nicolaides. To complete her wedding day look, Sara looked to another Australian designer for her veil.
To adorn her simple, low bun, she wore our chapel length AMORA blusher veil. As Sara is 1.2 metres (4’11”) tall, the Tania Maras team customised the length of her veil to ensure the proportions were perfect for her. Best of all, the veil stayed firmly in place throughout the day.
“The veil comb stayed in so securely, even during my super windy wedding day, and was very comfortable. My hair stylist said it was one of the best veil combs she’d ever worked with,” says Sara. “I also wanted a blusher because my photographer has a knack for doing gorgeous bridal photos with the bride and groom both under the bride’s blusher, and I needed to have some of these photos! When the veil arrived I was so happy with the material. It definitely exceeded my expectations.”
“The best thing I did for myself was to hire a wedding planner. No matter how organised you are, there are always an overwhelming number of details to manage, and for someone who is not in the wedding industry, it is very hard,” explains Sara. “This was made even worse during the pandemic because the gathering guidelines kept changing and so I had to re-plan my wedding a few times. My wedding planner (Perfectly Designed Events) was truly a godsend. If you have the means to hire one, do it! I would also encourage couples to hire a professional live-streamer for the ceremony, if they are forced to have a smaller wedding than they originally wanted, due to COVID. We were able to share our livestream link with all our extended family and friends (who could not attend), and it was very well-received. This also lessens some of the guilt and stress about not being able to invite everyone you wanted.”
True to its name, in the 1880s the Carriageworks workshops in Sydney were used for building and maintaining train engines and carriages to meet the demands of Sydney’s expanding rail network. Today, Carriageworks is exclusively used for creative projects and events – fashion shows, exhibitions, performances and now, a very special bridal photoshoot.
The moody, industrial setting of Carriageworks was the perfect contrast for the soft and feminine accessories in our new collection; The Romantics. We’ve returned to the classics when designing this collection, focusing on decadent headpieces, embellished veils and statement earrings.
To bring the collection to life, we worked with a talented group of creatives. Photographer Jack Henry and videographer Josh Carr-Hummerstons captured both the intricate details of the accessories and the impact of the full bridal look. Thanh Vo used her hair and makeup artistry to beautifully style models Hailey and Lilly and our stylist for the shoot was our good friend, Sophie Kirkby from Engaged Creative.
Just like Carriageworks has been reinvented for a different and creative purpose, we’ve breathed new life into classical pearls, bows and florals to create a line of fashion-forward bridal accessories.
French fashion designer Coco Chanel was the queen of timeless style, championing the simple yet sophisticated aesthetic, with tailored suits, little black dresses and layers of pearl necklaces. We’ve also championed pearls, but through headpieces, veils and earrings. Some of our favourite pieces are the MARA pearl birdcage veil, the VIENNA pearl drop earrings and ADELINE pearl headband.
We’ve introduced the classical bow design in a new and bold way, transitioning them from sweet to sophisticated. We have several new pieces which feature bows, including the LAURENCE shoulder veil, with the statement bows attaching to the shoulders of dress, the HEPBURN veil, with a scattering of satin bows, and the slender, gold LUCIA bow earrings.
Our signature floral detailing remains a prominent feature, however, this time we’ve turned to smaller, delicate sprinklings of flowers, as seen in the ODESSA shoulder cape, SABLE headpiece, PEPE circle veil, MORNINGTON floral earrings and BLAKE floral drop veil.

Dainty, detailed and bold, bridal crowns feature strongly in the collection. From the ANTOINETTE tiara to the EVELEIGH headband through to the CASPIAN, there is a crown for every queen.

We hope you will find your ultimate bridal look in The Romantics collection, and enjoy returning to the classics with us.

From the English-inspired gardens filled with colourful blooms to the arch bridge spanning the lake and highland cattle roaming the property, it’s easy to understand Gerrie and Michael’s attraction to the historic Mona Farm for their wedding venue. Located in Braidwood in rural NSW, the couple created a whimsical garden party, with romantic floral dreamscapes, jazz music, Negroni cocktails and dancing under the stars to round off the day.
With golden hair, blue eyes and red lips, Gerrie’s beauty was further elevated with her unique wedding-day styling. Her dress featured sheer, voluminous sleeves and delicate floral lace embellishments. Tania Maras worked with Gerrie to create a bespoke veil to complement her ethereal dress, along with a golden hair comb to adorn her low-set bun.
Gerrie and Michael decided to have a long weekend destination wedding, with plenty of time to enjoy the picturesque surroundings with their guests.
“We fell in love with the stunning grounds and English-inspired gardens, as well as the luxury accommodation, artwork and sculptures,” Gerrie enthuses. “Mona Farm does away with some of the hassles of a fully DIY wedding, but still allows a very bespoke experience, and the events management team there are first class.”
The ceremony was filled with memorable and personal elements, with one of Gerrie’s oldest friends, Nicci, as celebrant, a reading of a favourite poem by Gerrie’s brother and a rendition of The Lark Ascending by the Brioso String Quartet in memory of Michael’s Dad.
Instagram, The Lane and Wedshed were Gerrie’s go-to sources for wedding dress inspiration, before deciding on the Cecilia dress from Liz Martinez.
“I fell in love with the voluminous sleeve trend early on but wanted to find something that was still elegant and timeless,” she says. “The intricate and delicate floral lace appliqué on Liz Martinez designs is just breathtaking, and I chose a nude lining for the dress to accentuate the white lace detail.”
Gerrie chose the AUDREY veil, for its light and modern design, which wouldn’t distract from the intricacy and volume of her bridal gown.
“I wanted the back of the dress to be visible and the delicate nature of AUDREY means it streams out narrowly behind you and also catches the wind beautifully,” she says.
Instead of a metal comb, the Tania Maras team attached metal loops, to allow Gerrie’s veil to sit seamlessly under her low-set bun.
“I wanted to wear the veil attaching underneath my hair bun rather than over the top,” explains Gerrie. “Tania and the team came up with a different attachment to a comb so it was easier for my hair stylist to secure the veil. They were also incredibly helpful with explaining the difference between all the veil styles and helping me to achieve the look I was after.”
The abundance of shimmering crystals, pearls and floral elements in the MARION headpiece beautifully complemented the embellishments on Gerrie’s dress.
“Do away with any traditions that don’t resonate with you and your partner, and invest in those aspects of the day that are most important to you,” advises Gerrie. “Think about your guests’ comfort throughout the day when planning – is there enough seating, heating, food, bathrooms, etc. We would also really recommend investing in a photographer, videographer and photo-booth – it’s not something we initially planned, having all three, but we’ve really enjoyed seeing different aspects of the day captured for us to remember and revisit.”
Bow wedding dresses have a special charm with its daring femininity and playfulness. Whether your wedding dress features a large, dramatic bow or a smaller, more subtle one, finding a veil to complement this unique defining element on a wedding dress does need some consideration.
In this post, we provide a comprehensive guide on our tips on styling wedding dresses with a bow with a veil, ensuring your look is harmonious, balanced and truly unique.

When it comes to styling a wedding dress with a bow, the length of the veil is an important element to get right as your veil needs to complement the bow and not overshadow it.

The position of the bow on your dress will guide your veil choice.

The details of your veil should feel in harmony with the overall style of your wedding dress.
We generally recommend sheer and simple wedding veils with minimal gathers at the comb is our go-to veil for almost all wedding dresses with bows. This will ensure your bow remains the focus of your look.

From the moment Alicia and partner Victor drove up to the gates of Milton Park Country House they immediately fell in love with this fairy tale venue. Located in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales, Milton Park boasts beautiful, rambling gardens, ornate water features and sculptures and the oldest Weeping Beeches in Australia. These giant, dome-like trees make for the most magical photos (see above and below).
Once the wedding venue was decided on, Alicia needed equally special accessories to match the beautiful location. Her pick of the bunch were our rose AURORA earrings and floral lace RIVIERA veil, to tie in with the magical, garden theme.
An embellished veil captures the mood of a springtime wedding like no other accessory. Adorned in florals, lace, pearls, crystals, or all of the above, an embellished veil will instantly elevate the simplest wedding gown and perfectly frame a dramatic gown. Our exquisite veils are designed and handcrafted in-house so we can design and create a wedding veil to suit your wedding gown without drawing attention away from the beautiful details on your dress.
To help find her dream dress and accessories and narrow down her ideas, Alicia took to Pinterest and Instagram. However, it was conversations with other brides and her mum that proved to be the greatest help. The best wedding dress advice she received was from her mum, who said to “pick something you feel like you in.” Alicia knew she wanted a backless dress, and a style that was timeless.
“I had gone to Karen Willis Holmes to look at a completely different dress. By chance, I picked out this one and tried it on. I had tried so many different styles and this was the first time that I felt like a bride but also like myself. I knew it was the dress for me because I couldn’t wait to show my now husband.”
Before she decided on her dress, Alicia had been admiring the Tania Maras veil collection. When she picked her dress she knew the embellished RIVIERA veil, featuring hand-beaded organza flowers, floral lace and a scattering of pearls, would match perfectly. We customised the veil for her, to incorporate blusher layer.
“I loved how beautiful and intricate the RIVIERA veil was but loved the idea of a blusher as well. There’s so something so classic yet dramatic about blushers,” Alicia enthuses.
She finished off the look with the AURORA earrings, a feminine design with statement roses and cascading pearls.
“My dress was quite simple so it gave me room to play with elaborate accessories which is my usual style. I picked the RIVIERA veil and AURORA earrings in particular as I feel like they matched our garden theme beautifully.”
From the ceremony to the reception, the couple personalised their wedding with many special touches.
“The priest that married us was the chaplain at my husband’s work so it was an honour that he was able to marry us in the gardens. We both wrote our own vows and that would have to be one of my favourite parts of the entire day,” says Alicia. “My husband and I are both South American so we had cultural dances during the reception from each of our home countries which was really special.”
As Alicia and Victor’s wedding was affected by the pandemic, they came up with a novel (and practical) favor idea for their guests.
“We thought it would cute to offer personalised hand sanitisers with our wedding date, as wedding gifts,” says Alicia.
“It’s okay to have a plan but in today’s day and age accept if things change,” says Alicia. “It’s the most magical day and if things aren’t exactly what you thought they would be, that’s okay. The fact that you’ve married your ‘person’ is all that matters,” says Alicia.
Every bride is unique, and so should be every bridal headpiece. At our core, we believe that your wedding day should be a true reflection of who you are, capturing your personal style and your story, and the vision you’ve dreamed of for so long. That’s why we love working with brides to create bespoke bridal headpieces that are as distinctive and unique as the women who wear them.
All of our loves came together in perfect harmony when we worked with Rachel to create a crystal bridal headpiece for her October wedding. Rachel emailed us photos and links of her wedding dress and bridal hairstyle including details of what she was envisioning. She gave us the most magical and beautiful canvas to work with – her Galia Lahav gown was a piece of sheer beauty and her vision was to pair it with a romantic updo or half up hairstyle along with a wedding veil. We loved Rachel’s bridal dress for its striking silhouette, whimsical aesthetic and plunging neckline.
To add an element of classic styling to her look, we worked with her bring together the florals and foliage from our ABIGAIL comb and paired it with the silhouette of the WISTERIA headpiece. The antique silver leaves are adorned with sparkly crystal elements and the soft handcrafted flowers feature pearl stamens that feel effortless and romantic, and were the perfect details to accentuate her exquisite wedding gown.
We love way Rachel’s bespoke headpiece will curves along her updo or half up hairstyle and will beautifully frame her wedding veil.
The aesthetic of our work brings together feminine and delicate details with clean lines and classic silhouettes. We love wild and organic elements, soft draping and a touch of the bohemian as seen in this exquisite crystal bridal headpiece for bride Rachel.
Every wedding gown and bride is different and the perfect accessories for you will not only depend on your gown but your personal style, vision, height and hairstyle. We love to work with our brides to create the perfect veil that you will love to keep as an heirloom after your wedding day. Get in touch with us – we would love to hear from you!

Good things come in small packages and these intricate regal red bridal hair pins for bride Ella make our hearts swoon. The loveliest Ella had fallen in love with our MEADOW hair pins and envisaged a set in dark red tones to complement her Eastern wedding gown. We love shades of red and tones at the darker end of the spectrum blended with golden hues exude an intensity and depth we were keen to explore for Ella.
We love working one-on-one with our brides to pull together their bridal looks in a way that is meaningful to them. For some brides, it’s incorporating a flower that represents someone special such as a dear grandmother with an iris, tulip or rose flower in a design. For Ella, her gold red wedding hair pins are a tribute to her Chinese heritage and symbolise happiness, joy, luck and prosperity on her wedding day and life beyond.
In keeping with tradition, we designed Ella’s pins with a colour palette of red and gold. We sourced semi-precious garnet beads in various sizes for her pins to add an extra touch of decadence to the set.
