Blame it on Carrie Bradshaw for wearing a bird on her head in 2008, but feathers are totally here to stay. I'm on the hunt for the perfect feather fascinator to complete my wedding day ensemble. My dress is a simple, 50's style party dress and my vision is to have a fabtacular head piece to compliment it.  There are a ton of incredibly talented feather-piece makers out there- here are my picks:

The Jenny Fascinator from tiarasandfascinators.com

The Sarah Fascinator, also from tiarasandfascinators.com Check out more Feathers!!! and also some veil alternative ideas at The Un-Veil

For the ultimate modern vintage bride look, I think what a bride chooses to wear on her head is almost as important as the dress. Headbands and hair accessories are huge right now in fashion, so I put together a list of some amazing head pieces and headbands for brides who want to go with something other than a veil. Most of these are handmade the lovely shops of etsy, so expect some time for construction.
