5 Stylish Accessories for Summer Brides
There’s no “summertime sadness” on your wedding day! Many brides and grooms love a summer wedding as the weather is warm, there’s plenty of sun, and many more guests are free to travel during the summer months. Nevertheless, a summer wedding in North Carolina means it’s going to be hot. Here are some cute accessories to stay both cool and stylish during your summer wedding at Melrose Knitting Mill.

Nobody likes squinty eyes—especially when taking pictures! When you’re out and about getting wedding photos on our property during a sunny summer day, consider donning a cute pair of sunglasses that won’t interfere with your dress. White sunnies obviously pair well with a white wedding dress, but you can also go for a vibrant pair—or a color that matches the groom’s or bridal party’s outfits—for a little pop of color!
Fan

Keep a light hand fan on you for when you start to get hot throughout the day to ward off any sweat. You can also have some out for your guests to fan themselves off as a little party favor! A lot of brides and grooms also choose to feature the wedding program on the fans to serve double duty.
Hat

Don’t let your veil weigh you down! Spring for a light sheer one that won’t make your hair and face too hot. A sheer veil also offers a delicate vibe to your overall wedding look—perfect for summer!
Umbrella
Block those harmful sunny rays with an umbrella for both the bride and groom. It also serves as a fun prop for photos!
