Here are a few tips to help you choose just the right set to compliment, not only the bridesmaids’ dresses, but the wedding as a whole.

If you have chosen to go with simple or understated dresses, then your jewelry selection can be your chance to really “bling” it out. It is not a good idea to go overboard, but if all of your bridesmaids are comfortable with the jewelry choice; do not be afraid to get a little wild and flashy with their bridal jewelry sets.
Individual Originals
If you are having a difficult time picking out one set of jewelry for all of your bridesmaids, the answer may be to let them each choose their own set. The bridesmaids will appreciate the opportunity to choose something for themselves during the wedding. Your girls will also appreciate the fact that they are picking out jewelry that someone else is paying for! The added bonus to letting everyone choose their own set is that it will create some visual contrast on your wedding day and, most importantly in your wedding photos. Make sure, however, that your girls choose sets that do in some way complement one another.
