Choosing your Wedding Jewellery

Your wedding jewellery is an important purchase for your wedding. When choosing your wedding jewellery you have to consider many factors and as your jewellery will have sentimental value you need to purchase with investment and style.

Before choosing your wedding jewellery you should choose your wedding dress. Then you can begin to complement your wedding gown with suitable accessories and jewellery that will complement the dress.

Your wedding jewellery should include details that are on your wedding dress such as crystals, pearls, seed or bugle beads, diamante etc. That way your wedding jewellery will co-ordinate perfectly with your gown. You should also choose wedding jewellery that is in a metal colour to match the detail of your wedding dress or wedding rings.

The necklace you wear needs to echo the neckline of your dress. If your wedding dress is strapless you can choose any necklace you like. If you have a V or sweetheart neckline then your wedding necklace should be either a simple pendant or a Y shaped drop necklace will look fabulous.

Your wedding jewellery set should also echo your own personality. As you want your wedding jewellery to be extra special you could consider having your jewellery designed by a bespoke wedding jewellery designer to add that personal touch and make your wedding jewellery extra unique to you.

When having your wedding jewellery designed you should discuss in detail with the designer your wishes and ensure that they include details you desire.

Wedding jewellery can make or break your look so it is important to get it perfect. Trends in wedding jewellery often follow holly wood glamour and styles from the catwalk and Oscars. 2009 was a big year for fabulous earrings, bare necks and bold cuff bracelets with many brides adopting this look in their wedding jewellery.

The trend for tiaras too comes and goes. Whilst tiaras never go out of style with brides the style of the tiara can often change with the latest fashions dictating the height and style.

When choosing your wedding jewellery the most important factor is to buy wedding jewellery you love, that you will treasure forever and pass on as an heirloom. As long as you love your wedding jewellery and you are happy with it, you know you have chosen correctly.
