Jewelry is undoubtedly an accessory that accentuate the outfit. On your special day of a wedding, rings, earrings, neckpieces, and much more hold a priceless value. A wedding is an emotional affair and it is something that you look forward to for a long, long time planning to meet the love of your life. Hence, on a wedding day everything needs to be perfect including big things jewelry with a wedding dress and even small things like flowers need to be spot on. In any case, the jewelery selected need to be personalized presented in an elegant way. The wedding day would be the perfect day to wear your custom jewelry and flaunt your personalized approach in front of everyone.

In case you are a bride-to-be, the jewelry that you plan to wear on the wedding should compliment your wedding gown. Out of the various options like a golden, diamond or pearl necklace, I strongly suggest you to pick a simple design so it does not overpower your outfit.

A choker or a pendant necklace is ideal for a strapless dress. If there is an open back, long drop earrings could also look nice. Jewelry, as always, should not overshadow the dress.  

Jewelry worn on the big day needs to resonate with your style. What message are you trying to send? Are you leaning toward more classic and traditional styles or does a modern, minimalist look attract you? If you are deeply in love with vintage jewelry, you can make use of some family heirlooms and wear them on the wedding day to add some sentimental value.

The engagement ring and wedding bands take the central stage in the collection of jewelry, so they must compliment your vision. If you own a vintage engagement ring, wearing vintage style earrings or a bracelet along with it can tie everything together. If you prefer contemporary styles, sleek white gold or platinum designs can also be fitting.

3. Link To Your Wedding Theme  

Your wedding's theme as well as its color schem will also affect your decision of jewelry. For example, a beach or boho wedding may require more relaxed jewelry such as pearl stud earrings, a delicate chain bracelet, or a floral hair wreath. On the other hand, formal or black tie weddings may call for something more sophisticated like diamond encrusted earrings or a neck piece.

Do not forget to incorporate the color palette of your wedding too. If your wedding theme has soft colors, then including softer colored stones like morganite or aquamarine would be beautiful. For a more classical take, nothing beats using diamond, sapphire and ruby.

4. Plan Further Than The Wedding Day  

As precious as the wedding day is, planning for jewelry outside of it is worthwhile. Most brides prefer to select items that can be worn multiple times for anniversaries or family events afterwards. When choosing on the wedding jewelry, try to make sure it can be paired with other clothes in your closet.

If long term use seems uncertain, then choose items that can be made into something else. Such as earrings that can be worn on their own or bracelets that look good on both casual and formal attires.

Lastly, comfort should be considered a priority when choosing your wedding jewelry. Since these items will be worn the entire day, there will be no need for fidgeting or constantly adjusting. Avoid pieces with heavy dangling loops or tight neck pieces that may chafe with time, and make sure that your wedding ring is not too tight or too loose to prevent problems during the ceremony and reception.

Also bear in mind that sometimes simplicity is more effective. The best jewelry should always complement your beauty without making you feel like an alien or out of place.
