Finding the right bridal jewelry

Finding the right bridal jewelry for your special day is like adding the icing on the cake. It is that final piece that brings your entire look together making you feel even more beautiful than you could have imagined.

There are a few clues to follow to find the right bridal jewelry to finish off your own look. The first item to consider is the color of your wedding gown. Are you going with a traditional white or ivory gown, or are you going to be a bit original and do a light pink or other colored wedding gown? The color of your wedding gown should be reflected in your wedding jewelry. So if you are wearing a white wedding gown, go for the white pearls, if you have an ivory wedding gown, find the right ivory pearl to match that gown specifically. Swarovski makes a wide range of pearl colors that all can be matched perfectly to your gown.

The second item to consider is borrowed jewelry or pieces of accessories from your mom or family heirlooms. If your grandmother had a great vintage brooch that you love, try and incorporate that into your wedding jewelry. For instance, add the brooch in your hair with some hairpins, or attach it to your gloves. You can also make it the focal point of a necklace, bracelet or even wear it as jewelry around your wedding flower bouquet.

Another item to consider when selecting your bridal jewelry is the embellishments, if any, that your wedding gown has. If your gown is adorned with beautiful crystals, rhinestones, pearls or a combination of those items, you need to find wedding jewelry that will coordinate with those materials as well.

The last item to consider when making the selection of your bridal jewelry is the style of gown you will be wearing. If your bridal gown has a halter neckline, a necklace may not be the best option for you. You may want to consider a dramatic and chunky bracelet with some very dangly chandelier earrings.

Whatever you decide upon for your bridal jewelry and accessories, find pieces that you love and speak to you. Remember that you don't need to pack away your bridal jewelry with your gown, shoes and tiara. You can continue to wear your bridal jewelry for multiple celebrations and occasions to remember that special commitment you made on your most special day.
