Coordinating the Bridal and Bridesmaid Jewelry
If you think of your wedding as a total picture, where each and every element complements the others, it will help you to plan the many details that complete that picture. Think of it as if you were viewing the scene with a wide-angle lens, taking in everything at once – the setting, the color scheme, your bridal gown and your bridesmaid’s dresses, the groom’s and groomsmen’s attire, flowers, hairstyles and headpieces, and, of course jewelry. Once you have the overall look, you can focus on each of those details. Do they support the theme of your wedding and the “look” you are trying to create? Don’t think for a moment that jewelry is incidental. It can be a unifying force, the finishing touch that ties all of the other elements together and adds elegance to the picture. When you choose your bridesmaid’s jewelry, keep in mind what you will be wearing, as well as how it will contribute to the overall design. Your goal is to add to the wedding party's visual impact without detracting from your own. Therefore, your attendants’ jewelry should be beautiful for its own sake, but less elaborate or dynamic than your jewelry. As with all aspects of the bridal ensemble, you have a wide variety of stone or pearl colors to choose from, thus allowing for more creativity and color than ever before. With choices ranging from lightly tinted pearls to vibrant, colored crystals, you can now find just the right shades to complement your wedding color scheme. This makes jewelry an important and integral detail in the wedding “picture.”
