Bridal jewelry is an important element of your overall wedding look. Not only will the right jewelry make your dress look perfect; it can even bring out certain features of your body, like your collarbones. When it comes to wedding jewelry, however, most brides only think of the wedding ring and fail to consider the effect of choosing the right necklace, earrings, and bracelets. Read on to find out how to choose the right wedding jewelry, according to your personal style.

Classic Bride

Classic brides take their cue from Audrey Hepburn, Jackie Onassis, and Grace Kelly. With a fashion sense that’s timeless, traditional, and tasteful, the classic bride should go for delicate diamond studs to add some sparkle to her A-line wedding dress or sheath silhouette. Single-strand pearl necklaces and simple gold bracelets will look luminous and refined against an unembellished wedding dress, and will echo the gown’s graceful lines.

Glamorous Bride

Glamorous brides adore the spotlight and being at the center of attention, and their chic, sleek, dramatic style reflects that. Hollywood-inspired weddings and glam themes call for high-watt bling – the bigger, the better. Extravagant hairpins, oversized diamonds, cocktail rings, and dramatic chandelier earrings are the perfect touches to a wedding gown that flaunts your body and skins every curve. Top the look with a glamorous hairstyle.

Romantic Bride

Romantic brides spent their whole girlhood dreaming about their wedding and the price who will sweep them off their feet. Celebrate your romantic, feminine side with Victorian inspired accessories. Cameo pendants and heart-shaped lockets transport you to a time where lavish, ruffled gowns were the norm. Pretty up with precious pink gemstomes, and look like a princess with a jewel-encrusted tiara crowning soft curls.

Modern Bride

Your fashion-forward and slightly unconventional tastes mean you’re the one who always sets the trends, or is the first to try out new things. As a modern bride, you’ll look best in unadorned metals against a chic, figure-forming wedding dress. Minimalist finishes and geometrical shapes will complete the look of wedding dresses with architectural seams, pleats, and textural treatments. But make sure your modern bridesmaids look just as stunning as you do.

Bohemian Bride

Bohemian brides sport a unique style that’s partly a collage of cultures, partly earthy, partly out of this world. Go for art nouveau pieces inspired by nature’s shapes – leaves, flowers, and berries – will look pretty on empire-waist gowns in light, fluttery fabrics and delicate embellishments. You might also want to try hand painted jewelry and large ethnic pieces as a tribute to the poetry in nature.
