Jewelry For Your Wedding Look

The right jewelry does more than just accessorise, it completes your bridal look. We’ve styled pieces from our Bridal Edit to help you find the perfect plus ones for your wedding day. 

Your wedding day look is more than just the dress, it’s the harmony of every detail, and the right accessories can elevate your entire ensemble. We’ve curated jewelry pairings that complement different wedding dresses and hairstyles, so that you can find the finishing touches that feel just right for you. Ready to say yes to the jewels?

01. Loose waves and pearl

This look appears natural and fuss-free, which is exactly how you know you’ve landed on something gorgeously curated.

Wearing your hair loose brings a soft, feminine elegance to your special day, and we suggest enhancing your look with pearl. The gentle, lustrous curves of our pearl earrings complement wavy and curly hairstyles by mirroring the movement in your hair. 

To elevate the simplicity of a natural wedding look, you could add a chic accessory, like the white scarf we’ve chosen. Layering this with more pearl at the neckline creates cohesion across the look. 

02. Less is more with a high neckline

A high neckline is a romantic, refined look that calls for thoughtful styling, so here’s what we’d pair it with (or without).

With a high neckline - especially one featuring texture or embellishment - it’s best to let the dress speak for itself. Skip a necklace this time, to avoid competing with the impact of your dress.

That being said, the style naturally draws your eye upwards, so it’s the perfect time to go big with a statement earring. Drop Studs enhance the sleek and elongating effect of a high neckline and introduce natural movement to the look.

03. Swept-up hairstyles 

Wearing your hair in an updo on your special day is not only timeless and refined, but also wonderfully practical (so you can take your look from ceremony, to the dancefloor). 

With your hair away from your face, you’re left with the ideal canvas to decorate with jewels. Add to your ear stack with ear cuffs and layer your piercings with coordinating piercing jewelry for a curated, modern look. 

Combining a sleek updo with a sleeveless dress gives you lots of freedom to layer your necklaces. Our Tennis Chain Necklaces are a classic touch for just the right amount of sparkle, and you could layer a sentimental pendant into this look for an added personal touch.

Why do brides wear 'something blue'?
No one knows exactly where the rhyme came from, but the tradition of wearing “something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue” became popular in the Victorian era. Around the same time, another popular saying “marry in blue, lover be true” helped cement the idea that adding a touch of blue to your bridal look could bring good luck and happiness to your marriage.

We asked our jewelry designer, Mariana, to tell us more about the colour blue. Mariana explains "we added touches of blue not only to follow the tradition of having something blue at weddings, but because the colour blue represents love, purity and fidelity. Within some traditions, it is also believed that blue protects against bad luck." Whether you’re superstitious or not, no wedding day would be complete without 'something blue'.
