Our Favorite Wedding Accessories For Your Elopement Adventure

Wearing a veil during an elopement can be a major statement piece. There are tons of veil options for you to decide pick from chapel veils to fingertip veils. We personally love veils because they create fun portrait opportunities while surrounded by nature. We are huge fans of the effect cathedral veils have in pictures.

One thing you want to keep in mind is where you’re eloping. If you’re eloping somewhere extremely windy, then be careful to pin your veil down securely to your hair, or else your veil will fly away. Also, be careful with longer veils on your adventure. We recommend carrying your veil during your hike or putting on your veil right before your ceremony together to avoid your veil getting stuck on anything.

2. Capes or Wings

If you’re looking for a wedding accessory to fit your non-traditional choice to elope, then you should consider wearing a cape! Capes are making waves from this past year, and we are loving this trend. Embrace your super bride powers and accessorize with something daring and new. No extra weight on your head is also a major plus in our book!

Since these wings are usually attachments to your elopement dress, there is also less of a chance for you to lose the cape. If you’re looking to elope somewhere windy, then a cape is the way to go.

6. Elopement Shoes

“These boots are made for walking” should be your theme song when searching for your wedding shoes. Elopement brides are free to wear any shoe they want, but we love it when brides opt for the adventurous option and pick hiking boots. There is nothing more fun than seeing a bride in her beautiful wedding gown, hiking in her wedding boots!

From chunky heels to hiking boots, we got you covered. Check out our favorite wedding shoes, perfect for any weather.

Are you wondering how to find the perfect shoes for your wedding? Here are some tips:

• Consider what activities you will be doing.
• Wear comfortable shoes during your hike and change into your chunky heel when you get to your destination.
• Consider opting for a water-proof shoe if you’re eloping during the winter, rainy season, or near a waterfall.
• If your dress is super long, then don’t stress about what shoe you’re going to wear, and pick something that’s comfortable!
