It’s finally your day to look and feel like a queen! Picking out your bridal jewelry is an exciting part of the wedding planning process. Bridal jewelry adds the finishing touches to your look for the special day, pulling everything together. You’ve looked forward to this for so long, it’s important that everything is perfect. That is why when you pick out your bridal jewelry, you should do so with care. You want to choose jewelry that will elevate your look, rather than overshadow or ruin it. Here’s how to do just that:

#1 Match your metals to your dress. The color of your gown should guide your choice as to whether you wear gold or silver/platinum. If your gown is white, you will look the prettiest with platinum or silver pieces. We absolutely love the idea of wearing this Tiffany & Co. Jazz Diamond Platinum Pendant & Chain with a white wedding dress. If your gown is ivory, gold jewelry will best enhance this creamy shade. Gold jewelry will complement the warm tones in a champagne dress.

#2 Consider your dress’s neckline. The neckline of your dress will play a big part in which style of earrings and necklace you wear, and even if you should wear one at all. If your dress has a sweetheart or strapless neckline, consider wearing a choker or long, dangly earrings. This Art Deco Diamond Ruby Double Strand Pearl Necklace in Platinum would look stunning as bridal jewelry! If your dress has a V-neck, pair it with a pendant necklace that fits perfectly on your chest. If your dress has a halter, scoop neck, or a turtle neck (recently made trendy by Paris Hilton!) then you should skip the necklace all together and go for statement earrings. Why not make these stunning Tanzanite And Diamond Earrings in 14 Karat Gold your something blue?

#3 Don’t get overwhelmed. If you’re having trouble deciding, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with simple diamond studs or pearl earrings. These are always classic bridal jewelry pieces! You may decide you want to opt for something like these South Sea Pearl Gold Earrings or 

Classic Diamond Stud Earrings and then make your veil or shoes the big focus of your wedding day look. We love these Tiffany & Co 18Kt Pearl & Alternating Diamond Yellow Gold Stud Earrings because they’re understated, yet also offer a little something extra.

When you shop online for your bridal jewelry, you can find the pieces you adore for a price you love just as much! Spending an astronomical amount of money on your bridal jewelry takes funds away from the wedding, dress, honeymoon, and other important future events. That is why it is becoming such a popular idea to buy second hand bridal jewelry online.
