You spend days, weeks, even months searching for the perfect wedding dress until you find the gown that is most flattering to you and your personal style. Your wedding jewelry is just as important as a way to reflect your love, excitement and radiance on your big day! Bridal jewelry is one of the most important aspects of your bridal style and you should choose pieces that compliment not only your neckline, but also your personal style and personality.

But bridal jewelry can be so much more than something you wear once in a lifetime and hope to pass on one day. Most brides now want more out of their wedding jewelry. You should be able to wear your wedding jewelry time after time as a reminder of your precious day. That’s why it’s so important to find the perfect bridal jewelry.

When it’s time for you to shop for your wedding jewelry, be sure to notice things like quality of materials and craftsmanship. So much of what you find in bridal shops is produced in mass in overseas factories. And you never find bridal jewelry made especially for you when you buy at gown shops. At Amy’s Bridal Accessories, we not only make each item by hand with the highest level of craftsmanship and the best materials, but we also make each piece to your specifications. We work with thousands of brides each year to match colors and styles to all types of gowns. If you have a question about the type of wedding jewelry that would look best with your gown or your bridesmaids’ dresses, feel free to call or email us!

Things To Remember:

Neckline: The neckline on your gown is one of the most important things to consider when shopping for your wedding jewelry. For strapless gowns, a beautiful wedding necklace paired with smaller accenting bridal earrings is a wonderful look. A Y-style necklace like Brooklyn or a wedding choker like Maureen both work well with strapless gowns. And what about bridal earrings? If your wedding necklace is an eye-catcher, go with simple earrings like Jayde or Starstruck. If you're wearing a simple wedding necklace like Liv or Leah, you can pair them up with medium-length earrings like Ali, Leah or Gretchen. Foregoing a necklace completely? If your bodice is heavily beaded, and you aren't sure about a necklace, go with cascade earrings or chandelier earrings like Mishka, Mercy or Lindsay. After all, dangling cascade earrings are definitely the thing this year and next year's earrings promise to be even longer!

Wedding Colors: How many times have we heard from brides who were so excited to finally find bridal jewelry and bridesmaid jewelry in their wedding colors! From fall reds and browns to spring pinks and purples, you can choose from over 40 crystal colors when selecting your bridal jewelry from Amy's Bridal Accessories. We also offer free crystal and pearl color samples. Click here to read about, view and order samples.

Wedding Style: Will your wedding be casual or formal? Beach or church wedding? A more ornate necklace like Reese or Jaquelyn is appropriate for more formal weddings, while a smaller, more simple necklace like Olivia, Liv or Leah is probably best for a more casual wedding. Is your wedding somewhere in between? You can wear anything from a Y-style, to a lariat, a single-strand necklace, or a beautiful choker depending on your dress's neckline.

Pearl Colors: One thing we get asked over and over is which pearl color matches white and ivory gowns the best. The new trend in wedding gowns is light ivory, which can be referred to as diamond white, candlelight white, off-white, winter white, etc. The light ivory freshwater pearls are a beautiful match to these gowns. The light ivory freshwater pearls are not stark white, but not at all yellow-creme ivory. They are very light, almost white, and look perfect with an off-white gown. They also add a beautiful, natural soft touch to the traditional white wedding gown. For those who prefer stark white, the white faux pearls are your best bet. And ivory faux pearls are a more creme-yellow ivory for darker ivory gowns.

Necklace & Bracelet Length: Dont forget to measure your wrist and neck when ordering wedding jewelry online. The standard size for a necklace is 15-17 inches, unless it's meant to be a little shorter, in which case it will measure 14-16 inches. Chokers usually run 13-15 inches. Each design will list the length. Most of our bracelets measure 7 1/4 inches long, with a few exceptions at 7 or 7 1/2. We will custom size any piece for you, usually at no charge, so be sure to ask!
