When you're considering wedding tiaras
as an option for your wedding, you will be in superb company. Tiaras
for weddings have never been commonly used and in the event that you
intend to utilize a tiara together with a veil, or instead of one,
they're a terrific way to add a bit more sparkle on your big day.
Wedding tiaras are a hot bridal accessory that will never go out of
style. Most brides do opt for some style of wedding tiara. Whether you
are a traditional bride, modern or contemporary bride, vintage bride,
romantic bride, or Hollywood glam bride, you will find a tiara that fits
your needs. There are quite a few designs, all of which are unique and
worn in different ways.
The
etymology of "tiara" begins in Persia and was used to describe richly
jeweled, conical headpieces that stood high upon the head of the ancient
Persian kings. Royalty were the only ones allowed to wear such an
accessory as it signified the greatness of the kings, demanding the
importance of reverence and respect from the population much like a
crown had done in the past. In Greece another option for the tiara took
place. Diadems were worn more largely as a white ribbon bound about the
head. Gods wore diadems and their idolatry was worshipped by all. As
time passed, a certain distaste for the Persians grew from the rise and
fall of they tyrants and monarchs that led to the unpopularity of the
diadem.
Recently there has been a revival in the popularity of
tiaras as brides far and wide choose this accessory to complement their
ensemble rather than other types of headdresses that are available for
wear. Some brides wear them alone while others add the traditional veil
that can be removed during the wedding ceremony leaving the tiara to be
worn throughout the evening. Today's tiaras have progressed into a
half-moon shape that fits lightly atop the head, usually anchored with
combs at the ends. You can find single band, as well as double or triple
band styles with delicate yet bold designs that include the use of real
or faux gemstones. Some designs even include facets and points that
resemble the crown of a princess.
Some newlywed brides, upon the
completion of their wedding day, will take the Wedding Tiaras and
transform them into jewelry such as a necklace, bracelet or broach so
that it can be worn for many occasions rather than just the one. You
also have the option of leaving the tiara as it is so that you can pass
it down from generation to generation as a family heirloom.
