I adore wedding hats! I love grooms in hats, bridesmaids in hats and of course brides in hats. Hats add a touch of timeless elegance that we’ve seen for generations, in fact my mom wore a hat on her wedding day. A bride who chooses to wear a hat on her wedding day can be elegant, but she could also be fun and have a sense of humor! Take a look below at some of our favorite bridal hats!

Hats have always had some presence as a bridal apparel option. My mom wore a hat on my parents’ wedding day and I so wish I could get my hands on a digital copy of an image of her from that day for all of you to see. Ever since I was a little girl I always said that when I grow up and get married I want to wear a hat in my wedding just like my mom did. Whether or not I do decide to wear one for my wedding next year, I think hats add a a touch of timeless elegance and I just can’t get enough of them! It seems we are seeing a lot of the cage veil these days and as much as I adore them, I would love to see some daring brides take a courageous step and choose some less mainstream head gear for their wedding walk. There are so many options out there. Hats off to the below images of the beautiful brim shaded brides and grooms. Have a fabulous weekend!
