Bridal Tiaras in Different Cultures

Tiaras have been in existence since ancient times. They are primarily linked with members of royalty and associated with glamor and power. This is especially true with the British Royal Family. It is widely recognized and has become popular for its use during beauty pageants and weddings. Celebrities and non-celebrities alike have grown accustomed to using these decorative types of head wear that they have become a must for weddings. They are no longer even limited to just the bride alone and may even be worn by other members of the bride's entourage.

It is said that wearing this embellished pieces gives a sense of added beauty to the wearer. For others it symbolizes the loss of the bride's innocence from a child to a wife to be. There are also some who say that its circular shape symbolizes the binding love and commitment between the couple.

The use of tiaras during weddings is a powerful symbol in Catholic tradition. Historically, they have also been used by other cultures and religions for centuries. Although modern times have made the wedding tiara glittering piece of accessory or jewelry, it was not the case during ancient times. In some traditional religions and cultures, a simple, plain garland of fresh flowers was used during weddings. There were some cultures that utilized precious gemstones in their tiaras to proudly state their social status.

It was during the modern times, when tiaras became more affordable, that these accessories were being used for other purposes such as weddings. However, it was also during these modern times that the need for more elaborate or expensive looking tiaras was retained and was look required for use during weddings. Resembling like a crown, the tiara is the bride's way of looking and feeling like royalty, able to command attention from the crowd of attendants and guests.

In various parts of today's society, it was the entire tiara itself that held meaning, more so than the sum of its parts. Whether it was in the East or the West, there is yet an explanation as to why these types of crowns are designed that way. For now, it is being used as both a method to highlight the beauty of the bride during the wedding as well as its functional purpose of keeping the hair neat and tidy during this special day. In a lot of cultures, the tiara is also used to hold the veil that conceals the bride's face until the end of the ceremony.

For Catholic weddings, the face is concealed until the couple is proclaimed as officially married by the priest. In the Indian culture, the bride's face is concealed for a longer period of time, even during the reception period. With the concealing veil made from delicate yet elaborately designed cloth, the bride constantly experiences the discomfort of having to put the veil back up whenever it falls. The tiara functions as a fastener to hold the veil in place to let her enjoy the special day longer.
