Wedding Jewelry Trends

What’s In Style…


 
Throughout time we have seen trends of putting all kinds of metals, emblems, jewels and even links on fingers to indicate that a person is “spoken for”.

The last decade is no exception to the constant change in trends. Platinum sales, particularly in engagement ring and wedding ring sales have simply skyrocketed.

 If you haven’t already, get your colors done. Spring, Summer, Winter, Fall: You will most likely want to choose a metal that compliments your skin color.

This will help dictate if platinum is even right for you or if a shade of gold will be more appropriate.

Some Springs and Falls can even carry a titanium ring quite nicely.

 

All styles are accommodated by all different metals, think before you shop what group of styles you want to focus your energy on.

  • Do you like a solitary?

  • Do you want many stones?

  • Do you want many stones with a large center stone?

  • Do you want a narrow band or a wide one?

Any of these ideas will help your jeweler make recommendations for you from literally thousands and thousands of choices.

Consider Designing
Your Own...

Obviously over the years designers have come up with almost everything but there is some room for giving it your own personal touch.

Typically designers are inexpensive as their money is made off the stone and band itself. Consider stones other than diamonds as well.

If you have a passion for sapphires or rubies or emeralds or opals, you can still use a diamond center stone if you like.

Beyond Engagement And Wedding Rings...

Beyond engagement and wedding rings, matching necklaces, cufflinks, earrings, pendants, bracelets, tiaras, barrettes, combs and hairpins for the bride and bridal party are at the forefront of style this year. New designs run the gamut from hearts, initials and religious symbols, to nature-inspired, art-deco and antique-inspired jewelry.

Also hot this season are chandelier earrings with pearls or colored gemstones set inside. Grooms are selecting brushed or shiny cufflinks mixed with diamonds or engraved with their initials.
