Gorgeous Statement Hair Jewellery for the bride-to-be!

If you were under the impression that bridal hair accessories are limited to the age-old maang tikka, matha patti or passa, then we are here to prove your wrong!

From maang tikka with tassels, royal head chains to statement side tikka, the bridal hair accessories today have upped their game! The right hair accessories can completely transform your bridal look with that little oomph factor!

Here’s us listing some gorgeous bridal hair accessories which will not only enhance the hairdo, but also boost your bridal look on your mehendi, haldi and the D-day itself! Traditional or modern? You take your pick:

1. The royal courtesan look:

Designer – Anita Dongre

This bejewelled royal courtesan look where a necklace or a maang tika is used to embellish the bridal plait had to be first on our list. It looks so regal and stunning at the same time. Doesn’t it look divine?

2. New age juda pin:

 Juda pins are no longer the same old boring pins that they used to be! The new age juda pins can make any bridal hairdo, especially buns way prettier! Elaborate and pretty, a lot of them come with chains hanging from them which looks stunning and really graceful.

3. Poola Jada:

This south-indian wedding tradition in which you have flowers or gold or both put across the length of your hair is just too beautiful! With the changing times more and more brides are opting for a modern take on the traditional designs and it looks equally stunning too!

4. Wreaths:

Wreath or a floral tiara (as you call it) used to be a western wedding affair some time ago! Well, they’ve totally taken over the mehendi and haldi scenes in the Indian weddings by now! We love this bride’s statement wreath and how she has matched the colours of the flowers to her lehenga.

5. Head-chains:

We are having a really hard time to take our eyes off this chunky head-chain piece the bride is seen wearing! It’ll make for a great statement bridal hair accessory to wear at your mehendi, sangeet or cocktail function. What do you think?

6. Passa:

Once associated only with the Muslim weddings, the jhoomer or paasa is now a hot and trending bridal accessory. You can opt to wear only a paasa on the side or team it up with a Maang-tikka to get the complete bridal look. Worn either ways, we feel it adds a regal old-world charm to the bridal look!

7. Head Piece:

Bejewelled, beaded or plain-simple, these bridal headpieces look totally chic! You can add a maang-tikka in the centre or wear it just the way it is, the choice is all yours!

8. Matha patti:

You can wear it the traditional way or just on one side of your partition, it looks dreamy either ways! That being said, we feel matha-pattis look way more stunning than the Maang-tikka, for your wedding look!

9. Oversized polki chand tikka:

Well, if the maang tikka is going to be of this size, you can totally ditch the matha patti. *So Stunning*

10. Dainty flowers:

Don’t these dainty floral pins look too adorable! Get the ones with kundan, little petals or ghungroos which will take your bridal hairdo up a notch for your haldi or mehendi functions!  

11. The one that says ‘Ladkiwale’:

Looking for something cute yet traditional to wear at your mehendi, cocktail or sangeet? Then this Zardosi headband from Sabyasachi might be just what you’re looking for!
