When it comes to planning a wedding, most women overlook the importance of their wedding accessories and in many cases leave it till the spur of the moment. However, the right jewelry pieces can complete your wedding attire and almost always add to the final touch of sparkle to the bride.

But how do you choose the perfect pieces that will accentuate and add sparkle to your special day? If you want to find out how then you have come to the right destination since this article will give you helpful hints. Before you pick out your wedding accessories such as necklaces, earrings, headpieces, clutch bags, garters, and more, you should first choose the dress.

Your wedding dress should be the focal point of your entire appearance and to achieve the look you desire it is best to hold off on the extra detail up till later. You must first know the style of your dress. You do not want to regret purchasing that gorgeous statement necklace you saw online and afterward discover that it does not compliment your dress's asymmetric neckline.

The moment you have the wedding gown of your dreams, then you can add the finishing ...
... touches to complement your bridal look and gown. Bridal accessories should be to some extent minimalistic since you do not want to outshine your dress. A pair of elegant, dropped earrings will look perfect with an up-do hairstyle, or a statement necklace for a V-neck dress.

Apart from your dress style, you need to consider your skin tone. Different skin tones require different metals such as silver or gold, and the same principle applies to gemstones as well. If you are unsure what metal and gemstones to pick, experiment with different options and ask for advice before you choose your wedding earrings, hairpieces, bracelets, or necklace.

Even though your skin tone plays a major role when it comes to choosing your accessories, you can still dare to be colorful. Adding a little bit of color with your jewelry accessories is a clever way to liven up a typical natural color palette such as gold, silver, or ivory. Matching your gemstones to certain elements in the wedding, such as a shade in the table pieces or bridesmaids’ bouquets, is a stylish method of tying your wedding theme together.

Of course, not everything has to match on your special day. Be bold and mix new, borrowed, and old to create a sophisticated look. If you want to wear that gorgeous heirloom earrings from your great-grandmother, along with your favorite pearl necklace - then do so. However, remember not to clash colors and eras. To be on the safe side, pick out a traditional bracelet and earing bridal combination, and opt for either silver or gold accessories, but never both.

Even if you will not wear your wedding gown again, your bridal jewelry can still be worn. For that reason, it is best to choose timeless and enduring pieces that will look glamorous and stylish with any outfit so that you can wear it with your everyday clothing, on anniversaries, birthdays, or your honeymoon.

Lastly, when it comes to wedding accessories, the plethora of options is huge. But at the end of the day what matters is that you need to feel comfortable wearing it and that it complements your dress. You want the eyes of your guests focused on your gorgeous dress and your radiant face. So, keep your accessories minimalistic on your special day, even if you have to urge to splash out. Remember less is better.
