A wedding is a monumental occasion for a bride and her outfit and jewelry add up to the radiance on her big day. Every jewel piece worn by the bride has its own essence and helps amplify her overall look. From necklaces and earrings to maang tikas and bangles, each piece represents class and elegance. Here are five must-have wedding jewelry for brides-to-be.
A gold or diamond necklace
One of the most important pieces of ornament in a wedding trousseau, a necklace completes the entire look of the bride. You can go for a lightweight gold coin necklace that gives a traditional look. If you are wearing a pastel-colored lehenga, choose a diamond necklace. You can also try a long rani haar layered with a choker-style necklace for a royal look.
A beautiful pair of earrings
Your bridal look is incomplete without a gorgeous pair of earrings that will bring direct attention to your face. Big chaandbaalis or jhumkas are a great choice if you are going for a traditional wedding look. If you want something light, go for chandelier earrings, sparkling diamond solitaires, or a gemstone studded earring. They are also perfect for other occasions.
A diamond-shaped Maang tika
A maang tika is a forehead accessory placed on the middle hair parting of the bride. An important accessory in Hindu weddings, it adds an age-old charm to the bride's overall look. You can go for a diamond-shaped maang tika adorned with pearls or elegant trinkets to add more structure to your face. You can also amp up your look with a matha patti.
Rich ethnic bangles
