A wedding is one of the most significant events of an adult’s life. Couples spend countless hours planning the perfect day and going over every detail. From choosing a wedding dress that feels like “the one”, to picking out a hairstyle that makes one feel that much more beautiful, a woman’s wedding day “look” is a big part of the event.
A bride’s “look” is not complete without the perfect bridal jewelry- it’s like the icing on the cake. With so many options, here’s what to keep in mind when choosing the perfect pieces.
Customize
It’s no secret that the wedding ring is the star of the show when it comes to bridal jewelry. After all, each partner will wear their wedding band daily, serving as a reminder of their love and commitment for one another. What better occasion to create a custom piece of jewelry than for your wedding! Many couples will choose to create something that represents a significant aspect of their lives, such as including a particular diamond from a country that both partners have a personal connection to in their wedding bands.
Creating custom jewelry is one of the many services available at Guida Jewelers. One of our expert designers would be pleased to meet with you for a free, no obligations consultation, to discuss creating a one-of-a-kind dream piece.
Be Yourself
One way to further elevate your “look” and add some glitter and glam to your day is through choosing the perfect bridal jewelry- the wedding ring is just the start. From earrings to necklaces, there are many ways to accessorize and personalize your style, helping you to stand out and feel confident on your special day.
Be mindful to choose bridal jewelry which you feel represents you. The mantra “less is more” applies in terms of how much jewelry you choose; it’s really about “quality over quantity”, and the meaning behind each piece.
Match Your Dress
The wedding dress holds a special place in every bride’s heart. Bridal jewelry should always be selected with the style and color of your wedding dress in mind.
The metals of your jewelry should be matched to your dress. For a white dress, silver or platinum metals are recommended. For an ivory or champagne gown, gold jewelry is advised, as it helps accentuate the creamy color. If you have a blush gown, pair it with rose gold jewlery. In general, metal types should not be mixed.
Consider the neckline of your dress when choosing the type of necklace you accessorize with. A good rule of thumb is for the silhouette of the necklace to match with the neckline of your dress. For V-neck gowns, it is best to accessorize with the choker or pendant which matches your earrings. For a sweetheart or strapless neckline, a choker or shorter necklace is best, as this helps to create height and draws attention up to your face. For halter or reverse halter dresses, your bridal jewelry focus should be a bedazzled or floral hair decoration.
Don’t Sacrifice Your Comfort
The most important thing is that you enjoy your wedding day. There is no need to sacrifice comfort for beauty. When selecting bridal jewelry, keep in mind that you will be wearing it all day. Choose pieces which feel natural to you. You don’t want to be worrying if your hair piece is going to fall off while dancing! Always try on the pieces you are interested in, and if there’s doubt in your mind, take the time to look for something else until you find something both beautiful and comfortable.
The Memories Bridal Jewelry Holds
Your wedding jewelry will continue to hold significance long after your wedding day, with each piece representing your wedding and bringing up memories of your special day. The ring is something you will wear everyday, reminding you of your love and commitment. As far as other pieces, you may choose to wear them to other events, or during significant times in life, such as anniversaries. It can also be touching to pass these precious pieces on to loved ones when they become a bride.
Celebrate You and Your Love
With the many bridal jewelry styles to choose from, there is something for every bride. Take your time in making your selection and remember to choose pieces which celebrate your personality. While it’s always a good idea to do your research on the latest trends, remember that it’s your special day and choosing bridal jewelry that represents you is most important.
