the Right Metal for Your Wedding Jewelry

The hard part is over: you said yes to the dress! Now you’re ready for the final touches. Even though your dress is the star of the show, your jewelry can really elevate your entire look.

Before you start your accessory search, did you know that some metals look better with certain colors? This rule even applies to various hues of white.

Shades of White

Check your exact shade of white and match up the metal you should be considering for your big day. It will help narrow your search and keep you looking picture perfect when you say ‘I Do’.

  1. Pure white dress
    Choose silver or platinum with this shade of white. You can even consider adding a pearl detail to any of your jewelry. Be sure to avoid yellow gold as it can clash with this bright hue.
  2. Ivory dress
    This gown is best paired with yellow gold as it highlights the creamy tint.
  3. Diamond white dress
    This is a slightly off-white shade and you get to have your pick of the metals as they all can match. Choose from yellow gold, silver, rose gold or platinum if this is your wedding gown.
  4. A beaded dress
    Let the beads dictate your metal. If the beads are a shade of gold or any other color, use that as your metal guide and match the two.
  5. Champagne dress
    Gold jewelry complements the warm tones in this light beige color. Another option, if your wedding has a vintage look or style, consider burnished silver with rhinestones.
  6. Blush dress
    Try rose gold since the pink in the metal will match well with the soft pink of the dress.

No matter what you choose, make sure it is a reflection of your style. Your accessories should make you feel comfortable and confident on your special day! Make sure all of your wedding jewelry – including your rings – are protected with specialized jewelry insurance. Contact Lavalier today for your personalized quote.
