Exciting Ways to Show-Off Your Wedding Jewellery
Weddings can be the ideal opportunity to dress up and showcase the latest trend and when it comes to wedding jewellery; there’s no better reason to wear the most prominent rings, the most stylish necklaces and the most elegant of accessories. But there’s a fine line between style and tackiness, and if you’re keen to avoid the latter – here’s a brief guide with exciting ways to show-off your wedding accessories whilst keeping things tasteful.
Less can often be more with wedding jewellery
We’ve all heard the saying ‘less is more’ and when it comes to jewellery, this can certainly be the case. Although many celebrations can seem like a good opportunity to wear absolutely everything that you own and watch as you sparkle – the chances are that you’ll look a little Christmas-tree like. Rather than adorning absolutely everything; try to pay a little extra attention to style. Take a page out of the celebrity book by opting for a stunning ring that has been elegantly crafted by a skilled jeweller. Or perhaps go for an eye-catching necklace with its own precious gem centralised within gold, silver, or platinum.
Costume jewellery can be fairly obvious these days
Even with the advancement in technologies for manufacturing plastic and other materials; it can be pretty noticeable if you opt for costume jewellery. Although some can be a great way to start a conversation; most weddings will be tasteful events, so it’s always advisable to wear the proper types of accessories. As far as your wedding jewels are concerned, this could be a subtle gemstone set in a precious metal, or an elegant bracelet that features a variety of stones that twinkle attractively. Unless your piece of costume jewellery is especially convincing, you might end up regretting wearing it when looking back at the wedding photos.
Handmade jewellery is the new trend
There’s a reason why customised jewellery is becoming so popular and it’s because rather than using machines to take care of the processes involved in its design and assembly – there’s something far more appealing about knowing that an expert literally dedicated hours, days and sometimes weeks. Handmade rings are often cast using some of the most traditional methods known and this in itself can act as a talking point when sparking up conversation at a wedding.
Don’t always go for gold
Going for gold is a safe bet in most cases, but no so when it comes to jewellery. Although stunning – there are other types of materials that are often used instead of gold for rings, bracelets and necklaces. These include platinum; a rare and often expensive material that simply emanates wealth and style. Then there’s silver; a tarnish-resistant ore that can yield a brilliant sheen. Or for a unique alternative to gold, opting for a rose tinted finish, or a yellower-aesthetic can be even more appealing.
