So you have your dress and shoes, now you need some jewellery.

What you choose will have a dramatic finished effect for your whole look.

You need to think about the overall look and style of your dress as to what jewellery you will have.

Remember, less is more!

Two tips for choosing headpieces or bags.

  • If your dress is an ornate style, then choose an understated piece.
  • If your dress is a more classic cut then go for something a little bit more dramatic.

Match pieces to your dress with regards to the style and colour.

If you have crystals or pearls adorning the gown, then try to incorporate this into the jewellery pieces without taking the main emphasis from the dress.

If you go for a dramatic necklace, then team it with smaller earrings or visa versa.

How you have your hair will also need to be thought about when choosing earrings. Studs are better for short hair styles while dangle earrings are great if you are wearing your hair up or down.

Gloves have now become a popular choice for some brides. They add a touch of elegance to the look but choose the right length gloves for your style of dress.

Strapless dresses are best matched with over the elbow gloves, while cap sleeve dresses look better matched with gloves that reach to your elbow.

Gloves that come to your wrist will match to any style of sleeve so go for it.

Bags can be handy if you need to have a supply of tissues or make up to hand but again choose wisely as above.

Whatever you choose, you will sparkle on your special day!
