Every bride wants to look elegant and stunning on her wedding day, but many brides are asking us how to change their look from day to night? Perhaps you want more of a party style for the evening or a more conservative look for your church service. Of course, we could get a completely different outfit for the evening with a new hair and make-up stylist… but that is both time consuming and very expensive! Don’t worry there are so many much simpler ways of transforming your look…

Hair

Let’s start with the easiest first, your hair. There are so many different things that you can do with your hair to achieve that day-to-night look. Of course, there is the obvious of having it up or down at the ceremony and alternating for the reception. Most simply we would suggest you add or take away accessories such as pins, clips, vines or a few dainty flowers. Whatever your choice simply make sure that the transition can be as smooth as possible and make sure you trial the transition and that your bridesmaids know what they need to do and when. Adding a bit of sparkle for the evening is a great idea… what about adding some glitter spray to set your look?

Make up

A simple lip color change could be enough to give you the either subtle or drastic change that you are looking for. Of course, you can go from the barely-there make-up look to a smokey eye for evening. You will want to ensure that if you are doing a complete make up change that you give yourself enough time to successfully change your look. Be wary of adding layers upon layers of make up on your face as this can lead to a cakey look. How about adding some false lashes or have you heard of glitter which can give a great evening look.

Jewellery

One way to change your look in an instant is to add a big sparkling statement necklace for your evening reception, or how about changing from simple stud earrings to something more elaborate?

Gown

Finally, it’s time to talk about the dress! Whether you’re going for a sleek slim silhouette or a full net gown there are so many ways you can add to your look to change it from day to night.

Our range includes specially designed pieces to compliment your Ronald Joyce Dress from lace over jackets, capes or shrugs which you could take off ready to party in the evening. Veils in a variety of lengths are often worn by brides for the ceremony and make for artistic wedding photos.
