Jewellery - bling it on

Putting the finishing touches to your wedding outfit is as important as finding the dress itself.

Select something that reflects your taste and style, complements your dress and tones in nicely with the overall theme of the wedding. Think earrings, a necklace (something which works with the neckline of your dress), a bracelet, a watch (if you choose to wear one on the day) and matching hair accessories such as a tiara, a fascinator or small chic details like a hair band, pins or combs.

If your dress has the wow-factor, balance it with one or two statement pieces. Pick out one amazing necklace or choose sparkling chandelier earrings and an elegant cuff bracelet.

To complement the floaty, feminine look, go for floral jewellery designs in pearl or crystal. Drop earrings or a garland-style necklace will provide movement.

A vintage look is great for those with a classic yet unique style - layer up long necklaces and try mixing new pieces with something old or borrowed.

Pearls are traditional, classic and elegant and work their magic on every complexion, giving you a beautiful glow.

Diamonds are a girl's best friend and but if you want something more budget friendly, crystal or diamanté is a realistic option.

Simple and elegant, silver jewellery is so versatile you’ll be able to wear it long after the big day.

Pick up on the new trend for champagne and gold wedding gowns with some traditional gold jewellery in a variety of colours - from yellow and white to rose.

And don't forget, when it comes to making the decision about those all-important accessories, working with a jewellery designer can provide you with endless choice, flexibility and something that is hand-made and truly unique.

Choose your jewellery well and you will have an heirloom that can be handed down through the family.
