Understanding Wedding Jewelry & Accessories

Pearls are always the perfect complement to a wedding gown and also symbolize happiness. Pearls come in shades of white , ecru and blush pink and can be chosen to flatter every complexion color. A simple rule of thumb: The more ornate the gown, the simpler the jewelry should be. For an informal or country wedding, a gold or silver locket may be appropriate.

For a high necked gown or on with lots of beading or lace just below the face, a fussy necklace will overdo the look. Instead, make a statement with simple stud earrings or clustered earrings with pearls or crystals chose to match or mirror the beadwork in the gown. Some brides choose to move their engagement ring to the right hand until after the ceremony to make slipping on the wedding ring easier. It's also wise to avoid wearing any ring on the right hand during the receiving line, when it's necessary to shake hands for a long time.

A bride should never feel pressured to wear a piece of heirloom jewelry on her wedding day just because her mother in law or another loved one wants her to for sentimental reasons. Gloves, look for decorative wrist ornaments and beading, lacy fabrics, and styles with the fingertips snipped off. Long gloves are an elegant complement to a gown with little or no sleeve. With a short sleeve, choose a short glove. A sleeveless gown or gown with elbow length sleeves looks lovely with elbow length gloves. Hope this helps!!!
