10 things to keep in mind before shopping for bridal jewellery 

1. Set the Right Budget

It is very important to set aside a budget for your Indian wedding jewellery and then go on to shop in your favourite bridal jewellery shops.

• Stick to the Budget - Don’t go pick everything you like. Consider your budget and make a good choice accordingly.

• Set a Buffer - There are always times when you happen to like a jewellery piece, only to find that it does not fit your budget. Keep a small buffer amount that is affordable for you to exceed the budget a little.

• Consider the Heirlooms - You are more than likely to get jewellery passed on from your mother or mother-in-law. So definitely consider them, so that you don’t buy similar pieces of jewellery that you are already getting.

2. Select the right wedding attire first

Before you decide on the right bridal jewellery, make sure you have decided on the wedding outfit.

• Select the outfit first and then move onto the jewellery - The jewellery worn on one particular outfit will be totally different from another. For example, the jewellery you wear with the saree will be distinct from what you wear along with a lehenga or anarkali.

• Find the Right Balance - If your attire has extensive embellishments, then why throw more money to get ostentatious jewellery? Keep it simple. On the other hand, if you attire is simple, accentuate it more with the right bridal accessories.

3. Don’t repeat your Jewellery

It is very obvious, right? Why would you want to repeat the same piece of jewellery for the different occasion of the wedding?

• Different occasion, different jewellery - Indian weddings include many functions like sangeet, engagement, mehendi, reception and so on. Ensure to never repeat your bridal jewellery.

• Don’t break your look - Jewellery has the ability to make or break your whole bridal look. Complement your attires with the right jewellery to stand out.

4. Mix and Match

Gone are those days, when you need to find the same colour of a particular bridal accessory to match exactly with the colour of your dress. A contrasting look can be a secret recipe for a unique and refreshing bridal look.

• No need to opt for same colour - Go bold and flaunt a contrasting piece of jewellery to make a unique style statement.

• Eye-Catching and Appealing Bridal Accessories - Mix and match your wedding jewellery. Capture the attention and be the centre of attraction.

• Made to Match - There are jewellers who customise their designs to match your outfits. Get the recommendations of the right jewellers to accentuate your outfits better.

5. Keep up to the Trends

Just like the clothing industry, jewellery designs also keep evolving over time. Study the current trends by browsing a wedding magazine or go look up bridal jewellery online to keep yourselves up-to-date.

• Know your Jewellery Trends - Want to own the same statement piece of your favourite Bollywood divas? There can be no better place than Bollywood to look for some inspiration.

• Don’t follow the Trend Blindly - It is good to be informed about the current trends, but what if a trendy piece of jewellery does not match your personality at all? Ensure you choose something that perfectly complements your persona.

6. Jewellery Should Reflect Your Personality

People should gaga over your bridal look. Bear in mind you own personality and style and do your bridal jewellery shopping.

• Don’t leave jewellery shopping to your relatives - You should go out and do your own bridal jewellery shopping. The jewellery you wear should reflect your style and personality.

• Consider your Complexion - Certain styles match to certain skin tones. So, consider your complexion and make a wise choice accordingly.

• Don’t copy - Strive to be unique with your jewellery. Don’t get carried away with jewellery designs seen somewhere before. You don’t want people to say ‘Hey, I have seen this jewellery before’.

7. Pick the right jewellery for the right occasion

Indian weddings involve a host of pre-wedding and post-wedding rituals. Just as you have picked distinct outfits for each occasion, pick out the right bridal jewellery as well.

• Pick according to the mood of the ceremony - If you are picking out jewellery for your Mehendi or Sangeet ceremony, keep up to the vibrancy of the event. Opt for bold jewellery with the touch of Bollywood.

• Keep the Indian Wedding Jewellery Classy - Your most awaited day of your life demands the right jewellery. Showcase a bold and beautiful personality at your wedding day, by choosing elegant and classic jewellery.

• Experiment with unique designs - Your reception occasion and cocktail parties are the perfect events to experiment and try out new jewellery designs. However, don’t go overboard.

8. Invest in Jewellery that you like to wear

You spend so much time to undertake your bridal shopping. Once the event is over, the jewellery gets immediately stashed away into bank lockers. Why to spend so much time on something and not make good use of it?

• Don’t buy to store them in Lockers - Invest in bridal jewellery which can be worn later on in different occasions. Wedding jewellery can be heavy and elaborate. Keep in mind the usability of the jewellery and make a wise investment.

• Opt for Multi-Wearable or detachable jewellery - Detached jewellery are good options and can be worn in simple ways, once they are detached with user-friendly methods. Instead of investing in a big piece of jewellery that becomes too heavy to be used later on, opt for simple multi-wearable ones.

9. Start shopping in advance

Bridal shopping is not something to be done at the nick of the moment. Plan in advance and make sure you get you entire bridal look ready at least 2 weeks before D Day.

• Picky Shoppers - Women are picky with their accessories and attire. This means you must have a good amount of time on hand to do your shopping.

• Pick out the right bridal jewellery shops - Find a good bridal jewellery shop in your vicinity. Check the reputation and brand power of the shop and also get personal word-of-mouth recommendations.
