Monogramming is a very traditional practice that lends itself well to personalizing your wedding style. I love the romantic symbol of having the bride and groom's initials intertwined and represented on the wedding day. I recently saw this done on a beautiful long veil where the initials were worked into the detailing around the bottom. You can also have accessories, such as your handbag, monogrammed. All of these pieces make wonderful family heirlooms to pass down for generations.

Yet another idea is to incorporate your wedding colors into your ensemble. For example, if you are using blue as one of the colors, you can wear pretty pale blue shoes that add a little surprise when the hem of the dress is lifted. You can also take it a step further and wear a pale blue wrap around your shoulders if you get chilly. The key here is to not overwhelm your wedding day style with color but to add accents that make it special.
