Wedding Jewellery & Accessories

If it feels difficult to choose from endless options, start with the most important piece – your engagement ring. Highlight the precious metal of your ring by styling with additional pieces in the same colour. Browse our collections of yellow gold jewellery, white gold jewellery, rose gold jewellery and sterling silver jewellery for inspiration.

Begin with a bracelet or bangle, as this sits closest to your engagement and wedding ring and will draw extra attention to your left hand. Then select a stunning pair of bridal to complement your bracelet and ring. Consider your hairstyle and the level of detail in your earrings dress when deciding between a simple stud style or larger, statement earrings.

The neckline of your dress will help you determine which kind of necklace to choose. A classic diamond pendant will flatter almost every look.

Pearls are also a classic look for your wedding day, and with their stunning soft colour a pearl bracelet or pair of pearl earrings will match perfectly with the rest of your jewellery.

For a unique approach, try an unexpected touch of colour with colour gemstone jewellery. You could use gemstone jewellery as your ‘something blue’ by opting for sapphire, aquamarine, or blue topaz; to match your flower arrangements; or simply to work your favourite colour into your wedding day look.

Whatever your personal style and wedding look, at Michael Hill we have a beautiful range of wedding day jewellery to help you sparkle.

On her wedding day, a bride's jewellery plays a key role in completing her overall look and adding a touch of elegance and personal style. The choice of jewellery often reflects the bride's taste, the theme of the wedding, and complements her dress.

We’ve put together some of our favourite jewellery look ideas that will allow you to match with your bridal party yet have a stand-out look on your big day. Best of all, you can keep your wedding day pieces in your jewellery collection and wear them again whenever you want to, as a reminder of this amazing moment.

Highlight the brilliance of your engagement ring and bring extra sparkle to your wedding day look with diamond wedding jewellery. Diamond pieces set in white gold or sterling silver are perfect for finishing off your bridal look, and they are versatile enough to wear with any style or colour of wedding dress. Diamonds are also a symbol of love and strength, making them a meaningful choice as you say “I do.” 

For a stunning look in keeping with tradition, pearl jewellery is the perfect choice for your wedding day. Pearls will bring that final touch of elegance and lustre to your look, while being understated enough that your dress will be the star of the show. Pearls symbolise integrity and wisdom, the perfect symbol of your relationship with your partner and all you will learn and achieve in your lifetime together.  

With their beautiful soft shade, pearls are the ideal match for white, ivory, cream and champagne coloured wedding dresses. Achieve a unique yet matching look with your bridesmaids by wearing pearl jewellery in different coloured metal settings. You can also make your own jewellery look stand out a little more, by choosing a pearl bracelet or necklace with multiple pearls, or highlighted with additional gems; alongside classic singular pearl styles for your bridesmaids.

Yellow gold is the most classic shade of this precious metal, but a unique and modern choice for your wedding day jewellery. You might choose yellow gold to match your engagement and wedding ring settings, or simply as a beautiful compliment to your dress. If you love to wear yellow gold jewellery normally, it also means you will get plenty of wear from your wedding day pieces after the big day itself.  

Gold is a precious material, so it’s beautifully symbolic of how precious your love is. Yellow gold jewellery will bring a stunning contrast to white and soft-coloured wedding dresses and to textures like silk, lace, and chiffon. With so many gorgeous yellow gold jewellery styles available, choose your favourite pieces to complement your wedding dress and your bridesmaids’ looks. Add a statement piece or an extra layer to your look to give yourself a special edge.

When it comes to perfecting your wedding day, you’ll want to pay attention to all of the details – and your accessories and jewellery are important parts of your overall bridal look. Decide whether you’d prefer more traditional jewellery - such as pearls or diamonds – or something more modern, such as yellow gold or layered jewellery.  

Your jewellery is also the perfect way to factor in wedding traditions, such as ‘something old’ (an heirloom piece) or ‘something blue’ (sapphire, blue topaz, aquamarine or tanzanite).

If you have an accessory you’ve fallen in love with, such as an heirloom piece, a statement hair accessory, or your veil – use this as your starting point and choose the rest of your jewellery and accessories to complement it. Of course, you can also start with your engagement ring and wedding band, and style the rest of your jewellery to match these key meaningful pieces. 

For a beautifully styled wedding, keep your bridal look consistent with the theme and colour palette of your wedding celebration. For instance, if you have chosen a rustic-style venue and theming, you might consider a boho-style dress and fine intricate jewellery. If you prefer an opulent, eye-catching theme, your dress, hair and makeup might be more glamorous and polished, with traditional-style jewellery such as pearls and diamonds.

Keep on theme by tying in your bridal party’s looks as well. Choose dresses and beauty styles for your bridesmaids that complement your theme, and that your bridesmaids feel confident and beautiful in. You don’t have to match exactly (unless you want to), but you can create a beautiful cohesive look with your bridal party by sticking to a colour scale, and perhaps tying in matching jewellery pieces or hair accessories for a thoughtful touch.

Don’t forget to consider your partner’s wedding look, too! Try to choose your styling and accessories so that you both feel comfortable and respect each other’s personal tastes, and so that you’re also harmonious with each other.

Remember, you’re not choosing each element of your bridal look individually. You’ll want everything to come together to ensure you feel amazing and that your big day is as special as you deserve. Consider your hairstyle, makeup, jewellery and accessories, and dress all together to create your perfect look.
