Where did you find your headpiece/tiara?

My bridal salon tried to sell me a tiara for $600! I'm sure I can find one for less - any recommendations?

Bridal Styles on Avenue U in Brooklyn has amazing headpieces, and will also copy any design you may want for between 200-400 including the veiling!

If you what you are looking for, you might try this place online, they also have auctions on ebay ... they are lot cheaper than what you describe. As soon as I get my makeup/hair trial I am getting mine from this place.

good luck

Thanks for the advice ladies! I'll have to check those places out.

Licia - Your tiara looks beautiful!! I saw some of the ones on glamgal.com, but was a little hesitant to buy without seeing their quality in person. It's reassuring to hear you are satisfied. Thanks!

Try Floral Fantasyland in Patchague. I got my tiara for $50 and my MOH got hers for about $30. They have a huge selection and they all seemed fairly reasonable.

Re: Where did you find your headpiece/tiara?

I also got my tiara and headpiece from Bridal Styles on Avenue U. I recommend them. All their pieces are really nice. I paid about $300 for mine including a layered veil and Swavroski (sp?) tiara.

Re: Where did you find your headpiece/tiara?

I'm picking my veil/headpiece up from C & H tomorrow! So excited! I got the recommend from some ladies here-and I'm so happy to have found them.

Tri-County is another great place for headpieces. Prices are very, very, very reasonable and there are a bunch of boths that carry them so the selection is HUGE.

The shop where I bought my dress had similar headpieces for more than double the price!!

Re: Where did you find your headpiece/tiara?

I got mine at C&H...I think I was the one who started the C&H Trend.....I get lots of compliments and everything I got (which was a lot) was all under $300 and so preofessionally done. My snobby shop was even impressed!

Re: Where did you find your headpiece/tiara?

I had mine custom made. It came out beautifully. The woman I went to can also cut the veil to whatever shape and length you want. I got exactly what I wanted, so I am very happy! If you want her information, you can forum mail me.
