How to Match Bridal Jewellery With Your Wedding Dress

Without a doubt, your wedding day is the some of the most unforgettable days of your life, so you won’t overlook a single detail starting with the wedding gown. Finding exquisite bridal jewellery that perfectly goes with your wedding dress enhances the beauty and splendour of a bride. However, how can one make sure that the pieces are incorporated without losing the style? Here are some tips for finding the right jewellery for your gown.

 

How to Match Bridal Jewellery With Your Wedding Dress

 

Consider the Style of Your Dress

As this is the main piece, the first thing that any bride should consider while wearing the right jewellery is the style of her wedding dress. Your jewellery should only serve as an additional touch and should not compete with the dress, whatever style it may be – retro, artsy, or vintage.

  • Classic Gowns: Look for diamond neckpieces, pearl earrings, or other dainty pieces, if you do not wish to draw attention from the bridal gown. Such accessories enhance the overall grace of the look but do distract the attention from the gown
  • Modern Dresses: Those who own sleek and minimalistic tailored silhouette dresses should wear bold statement jewellery. Try to think of some geometrical shapes worn on the ear or rather a fat cuffed bracelet on the wrist to spice up the look.
  • Bohemian Styles: If your dress is romantic, earthy-tone, nature-inspired jewellery can be a good choice. Accessories with flowers, fine chains, or stones are whimsical and go well with the playful spirit of your gown.

 

 

Match the Metal to the Dress Colour

  • White Dress: For plain white gowns, platinum, white gold, or silver jewellery is the best. These metals go well alongside the cool tones of the dress rather than being intrusive.
  • Ivory Dress: Over a party ivory dress, adornments made with gold are the best. The gold blends so well with ivory because of its warm feel; further enhancing the colour in the fabric.
  • Blush or Champagne Dress: Jewellery in rose gold is ideal for blush, and champagne dresses. The pretty pink hues of the metal help to bring out the warmest shades of the dress while the metal itself gives a touch of romance.

 

 

Choosing the Right Necklace For the Right Neckline

  • Strapless or Sweetheart Neckline: A strapless dress creates a blank canvas for a bold statement necklace. Opt for a thick choker-style necklace or a chunky multi-strand necklace that just sits about the neckline and provides excess attention to your neck and shoulders.
  • V-Neck: In the case of a V-neck dress, it pairs well with a pendant that follows the contour of the neck perfectly. Such an ensemble only serves to improve the dress.
  • Halter or High Neck: When it comes to adding accessories to high-neck dresses, it is best to completely ignore the neckpiece and go for bold earrings, instead. This draws attention to your features as well as enhances their beauty.

Earrings to Complement Your Hairstyle

  • Updos: If you are wearing an elegant updo, then chandelier earrings or drop earrings would be perfect for it. These earring types will lift the neck and make the entire look classy.
  • Loose waves or Down hairstyles: For updos with some hair down or loose waves, go well with small studs or small hoops. They would not be caught in your hair and would give a nice sparkle.

 

 

Investing in Bridal Jewellery

Matching bridal jewellery pieces to wedding dresses is about harmonization and balance. You have to take into consideration the dress style, colour, and neckline as well as your own individuality to create such an unforgettable impression. Just remember, it is the dress that should be accentuated rather than the jewellery.
