Tips for Brides and Grooms Who Wear Glasses

Many individuals who wear glasses prefer contact lenses on their wedding day. But some brides and grooms, especially those whose glasses are part of their distinct personalities, want to wear their lovely spectacles on their special occasion. Here are some tips on how to get the most out of the look.

Take Care of the Glare

If you are shopping for new glasses, do not forget to ask about anti-reflective options. These spectacles eliminate the reflective glare you see along with the reflection others see when looking at you, making them useful for photo opportunities and even day-to-day use.

Treat Your Glasses Like a Piece of Jewelry

Nowadays, it is not hard to find a stylish set of frames that not only helps correct your vision but also improves the overall look of your wedding outfit. You can personalize your brand-new pair of glasses to perfectly complement your dress or suit. Whether the frames are all-white or gleaming in a vibrant shade, you have the power to make them a statement piece.

Mind Your Earrings

The idea that earrings and eyeglasses do not go together is outdated, not to mention limiting. After all, it is your special day — do what your gut is telling you, even if that means combining classic stud earrings, a charming headpiece and beautiful spectacles. Do not be afraid to play around with your choices, and have a friend take photos to see which style you love the most.

Ask Professionals for Advice

Tell your makeup artist and hair stylist that you want to sport your signature glasses on your wedding day so you can work out the complete look ahead of time. Remember, you do not have to give up some dazzle factor just because you are wearing glasses.
