Our favourite gown + accessory pairings
If you choose to order your wedding dress with The Briderie, then you probably know about our accessory sister brand Eden b. Studio, makers of modern + artisan bridal accessories. We share our beautiful studio together, which means if you’re trying a gown with us during a first, return, or even a collection appointment, you have the luxury of choosing from an array of accessories to style with your wedding dress. Accessories are the finishing touch, they complete the look and can transform a more minimal sleek vibe with statement accessories or simply finish a more elevated look with classic, timeless pieces.
Handcrafted in our Tunbridge Wells Studio, Eden b. makes veils, bows, scarves, earrings and hair accessories.
Below are some of our most loved pairings right now.
THE PLAIN TULLE VEIL
You can’t go wrong with the single tier Sofia veil, available in fingertip, floor, chapel, cathedral or any custom length. The tulle is gathered on the comb which creates a luxe fullness. The Sofia veil is the perfect pairing in keeping with a more minimalist bridal look (seen below paired with our Jasmine gown), or will perfectly compliment and not detract from a more statement gown (styled below with the puff sleeve Peony). You can also elevate your Sofia gown with our custom embroidery (think dates, initials, names, or cute slogans - see below ‘just married’.
THE STATEMENT VEIL
You will be spoilt for veil choice with our accessory partner Eden b. You only get this one (hopefully!) opportunity in life to wear a veil (petition to introduce veils to everyday dress please!) so why not go hard or go home, you won’t find a bigger advocate for the drama veil than us. A beautiful statement veil can elevate a minimal bridal gown or we totally support the more is more ethos and pairing a two-tier interest veil with a big beautiful ballgown is an absolute yes from us. Just remember, that you don’t have to wear your veil for the whole day, you can always have an accessory change up for the latter part of the day.
THE NECK SCARF
2025-26, the year of the bridal neck scarf and we are here for it. Elegant and contemporary, the bridal neck scarf is without a doubt having a moment. Available in silk, lace or tulle, this is the most beautiful accessory to pair with your wedding dress. If you don’t see yourself as a veil girly, perhaps this feels ‘too bridal’, then the scarf can be the perfect hybrid. Or, if you love both, you can wear a veil for the ceremony and switch it out for a scarf for later on i.e for your wedding breakfast entrance or first dance. Available in shorter lengths, floor or chapel (working in the same way as a train). We love the bridal scarf and although it is of the moment, we see this one sticking around for a long time yet, it still feels classic & timeless and a staple for brides who love the romance & softness a veil offers but not in a traditional sense.
THE BRIDAL BOW
The bridal bow, a bit of a marmite accessories, we find its a love or loathe and for us, its a definite love. It’s a fun and feminine way to add interest to your bridal look. Available from Eden b. in many iterations - silk, tulle, organza. Plain or designed with interest such as pearls or embroidery. The bow is playful, modern yet timeless. You won’t regret wearing a bow on your wedding day.
THE PEARL EARRING
Name me a better bridal earring than the pearl earring? Modern, classy, timeless, Eden b. offer subtle drops to more statement drops earrings, all hand crafted in the studio from the finest materials. Precious plating in 18k gold or silver (if you prefer) and beautiful freshwater pearls. The pearl earrings are completely versatile and will be the perfect addition to style with any of our gowns. A modern heirloom, you can pass these onto loved ones or rewear for special occasions, reminding you of your wedding day.
