What Type of Jewelry Should You Wear With Your Wedding Dress?
So, you’ve already secured a dreamy engagement ring and the absolutely perfect dress for your big day. What comes next? Picking out jewelry, of course!
This is definitely the chance to invest in a memorable diamond or gemstone bauble you’ll wear for years to come (and hopefully pass along to your daughter). But for now, it’s wise to focus on how your chosen piece will work with your dress. Here, we figured out the best sparkling addition to six common necklines, for your most romantic day yet.
Off-the-Shoulder Dress + Chandelier Earrings
Martha
While a wide-open neckline might seem like the obvious opportunity to wear a huge, glistening necklace, you might be surprised what happens if you buck that trend. When it comes to off-the-shoulder necklines, like the Martha’s, the addition of a beautiful dangling earring—and no necklace at all—makes for a beautiful statement. These romantic chandelier earrings from Anabela Chan, set with diamonds, pink sapphires and citrines, will add a playful punch of color to your big day.

Corset Top + Choker Necklace
Alexa
Go big or go home is our mentality when it comes to diamonds. And a gown with a corset top simply begs for a huge dose of diamonds. Luckily Suzanne Kalan makes this megawatt diamond choker, that will pair with the Alexa dress like a dream. If this particular choker is a bit too much for you, this jeweler offers a ton of more delicate choker styles that should do the trick.

Plunging V + Loud Cuff Bracelet
G-306 - Discontinued
It might be your big day, but a deep V-neck will be the center of attention as you walk down the aisle (or show up for your first dance). Don’t take anything away from that moment—keep your neck free of necklaces and keep your earrings on the minimal side. You can, however, play up your wrists in a big way with a bold cluster of diamonds and pearls, à la Nancy Newberg’s incredible cuff. To really go in on this striking look, wear one on each wrist.
