What type of hair accessory to choose?

So for my hairstyle I think I am going to go with a low bun or a low bun slightly off to the side. Nothing too tight, just sort of loose and whimsy. I also have longer side bangs. I don't want to wear a veil so I am trying to decide what would look good with that hairstyle. I don't know if a small tiaraish headband would look good or not. Also thinking about a fancy comb or a flower.

    I like a fancy comb tucked into the bun, something that coordinates with your jewelry. if I wasn't wearing a veil, I would do this:

    I think a flower would look nice.  Agree that a tiara might not be the best choice with a low bun. 

    I love Project Wedding photos - here are some hair ones to look through for ideas - love the flower look:

    I'm actually using that same inspiration pic.  I'm doing a low veil below the "bun" that's on velcro so it will be easy to remove for the reception.  And, rather than the little bead-y thing, I have a set of 3 small flowers coming from an Etsy seller.  I'll let the stylist do with them what she thinks will work best.

    Squirrly: Can you put up a picture of the flower things you are talking about? I'd love to see them. Are they a type of pin or barrette?

    I wore my hair sort of like what you are thinking.  I got some flower hair pins off Etsy to put in my hair. 
    Here is a pic, more in my bio...

    PIB--LOVE my hair piece, but it's big, so you have to be sort of bold! :)

    I'm having basically the same hairstyle, and I'm doing a flower comb.  It's not going to be a flower exactly, but 2 small fowers with little jewels to coordinate with my dress.

    Then I'm having a veil come out from underneath.  They'll be 2 separate pieces, so I can take the veil off for the reception.

    I'm going for the same sort of thing. I want something classic looking, but sort of loose. I don't want my hair plastered to my head like a prom-do, so I'm thinking low chignon with the veil underneath and the hair comb. I've actually already got mine.

    I'm also doing a chignon bun, and bought my feather flower from jennypickle on etsy.com. She made 3 mock ups for me to choose from after we talked. But there are many sellers on etsy that may have something your looking for Good Luck!
