Sometimes they can not even be distinguished from real plants. Moreover, such attributes will remain in the memory of the girlfriends and for a long time will remind of a bright and fun day.

Otherwise, the wrists of the bridesmaids run the risk of being untidy.

• The main rule for wedding decorations is a combination of materials. Flowers and decorative elements should overlap with each other and the bride's bouquet. It is best if one person does these attributes.
• Do not forget about the style of celebration. For example, feathers will be inappropriate at a ceremony in the style of Provence, and rhinestones at an ethnic party. If you want to depart from the classical ceremony, it is necessary to study the specifics of any pronounced style.
• The product must be of high quality, because it will be on hand throughout an eventful day. Flowers and decorative elements should not be disheveled. This is especially true of fresh flowers. Most often, by the end of the party they no longer look aesthetically pleasing.
• You must know in advance the size of the decoration. Too tight bracelet will bring a lot of inconvenience, and free - will interfere with the girl and quickly disheveled. It is best when the accessory is tied on a bow made of ribbons. However, in this case, the bridesmaid is unlikely to be able to put on or correct her wedding attribute without outside help.
• If the bride plans to make bracelets on her own, then it is better to work out well in advance to make the jewelry look perfect. Decorations from fresh flowers should be created as close to the ceremony as possible. Do not forget that these are days saturated with the solution of organizational issues, therefore it is better to entrust the creation of such attributes to someone else.
• It would be ideal to arrange a kind of “test drive” for decoration. Create one product specifically in order to test its endurance long before the wedding day. Then there is time to make adjustments to the design of the accessory.
