We have searched high and low to find the best of the best, the essential items that are going to transform you and make you feel utterly radiant as you walk down the aisle. On your big day everything has to be perfect, the dress, the accessories, even the make-up. That means kissable lips and show stopping eyelashes.

Choosing the perfect dress for your body type
First things first, how do you navigate yourself through the sea of wedding dresses? It is hard to know where to begin, well we have it all figured out here at aasbridal.com and when you know where to start, the process isn't really all that complicated. We have made your choice a little easier by breaking it down to body type:

Pear shaped body type
Look for a skirt that has a gradual flare in an A formation. This will highlight the narrowness of your midsection and float naturally away from your hips and thighs. The A-line is a classic formal bridal gown, but you may want to look for modern interpretations of the dress that use lighter, more casual fabrics.

Busty body type
Begin looking at wedding dresses with scooped necklines. They will draw attention to your face and your neckline without revealing too much cleavage. Avoid fabrics that have sheen to them, they will call attention to your chest.

Plus-sized body type
Consider a dress with a skirt that begins just under the breast and gradually falls to the floor in an A-line. Make sure that the fabric has no pleating; this may give the appearance of maternity wear.  The dress should bring out the great things about your shape, if it is too loose it will add pounds to your appearance.

Apple shaped body type
Start looking at dresses that go into the smallest point of your waist and then flare into an A-line. A neckline with a deep V will draw eyes to the vertical and not the horizontal.

Elongated body type
Go for a simple silhouette that will emphasize your natural shape. Try to stick with simple, classic styles and do not over-embellish the dress.

The perfect accessories for the big day
Choosing the right accessories for your bridal gown is an art form and unfortunately for a lot of women, it can also be a mystery. Here are a few essential tips that should get you started finding those perfect accessories.

You can't go wrong with pearls
Fashion styles change but pearls have been and always will be appropriate and fashionable. A simple pearl necklace will compliment all the dress styles previously mentioned. They are affordable too. A cultivated pearl necklace is well within everyone’s financial limits and if you choose to go with imitation pearls, they are even cheaper.

The rules of earrings
The earrings you wear will depend on the neckline of your wedding dress, what necklace you choose and how you style your hair.

As with all the jewelry you choose to wear on your big day, you want it to enhance your gown, not compete with it. If you choose to not wear a necklace, then go with longer earrings. If you have a pearl necklace, then go with matching drop pearl earrings. If your dress has an elaborately beaded neckline, a necklace is going to be distracting and so are flamboyant earrings.

Have the confidence to go bare
Wearing nothing but some simple earrings is going to draw everyone’s attention to your neckline, your shoulders and your gown. It takes confidence to wear you hair up and have no jewelry, but with the right dress and the right amount of preparation, you can create a look that will be sublime and focus on the beauty of you.

These are just some of the tips and advice for wedding gowns, dresses and accessories we have here at aasbridal.com. Enjoy the rest of our site and remember to relax, with our help you are going to look magnificent on your wedding day.
