3 Easily Avoided Wedding Day Jewellery Catastrophes

Everything has to be right when it comes down to your wedding day, particularly the way you look.  The main thing that everybody’s going to remember after your wedding is over is the way you look as you stand in front of the alter.  With that in mind, one of the worst things that you could do is draw attention away from your stunning dress by wearing poorly chosen jewellery.  So to help you avoid a wedding day jewellery catastrophe, make a mental note to avoid everything you see here.

Choose the Dress, Then the Jewellery

Some brides-to-be make the fatal mistake of choosing the jewellery they want to wear on their special day before they’ve come to a final decision on the dress.  This is a big mistake because the dress is be the thing that your guests are looking at, and the jewellery that you wear is there to enhance your beauty and the best features of the dress.

By choosing the jewellery first, however, you will then have to choose your dress around your jewellery choices.  Some brides-to-be don’t do this, and end up with clashing dress and jewellery – definitely something to avoid.

Follow your Heart, not your Purse

Your wedding day will be one of the best days of your life, so although you don’t want to go completely over your planned budget, you don’t want to have to pander to it either.  This means, firstly, having a realistic budget.  Secondly, it means choosing the jewellery you really desire.  Finally, it means going to the right stores.  An excellent place to begin looking would be in the diamond jewellery section at a store like Ernest Jones.

Don’t Give in to Peer Pressure

When you’re looking online or in-store for your jewellery, surround yourself with people who you know will tell you the truth about what you’re looking at. It’s important to take their opinions on board, but not to follow their advice implicitly.  You really don’t want to end up in a situation where you’re being pressured into wearing an accessory you don’t have your heart set on, just because your shopping party have decided it’s the one for you.

Ultimately, just remember to have a sensible budget and let yourself be the final judge on what you buy.  By doing this and remembering to choose your jewellery to accentuate your dress, you’re sure to avoid all wedding day jewellery catastrophes. Here are some exciting wedding day jewellery ideas to spark your imagination.
