Bridesmaids Jewelry

Alliy, on June 20, 2021 at 9:27 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 16

I made the mistake of asking which jewelry type my bridesmaids would like to wear for my wedding (our decor has gold but I will be wearing silver), and exactly half of the girls said gold and half said silver! Do I pick one metal for everyone to wear, at the risk that half won't like what they have to wear, or let half wear gold and half wear silver? Each bridesmaid is wearing a plum dress in a different style of their choosing. Help!

    I would either get them each whichever metal they prefer or I’d let them know they can feel free to wear whatever jewelry they want that they already own. I’m not a fan of matching jewelry because everyone has different styles and it seems like a waste to buy something for someone that they’ll wear for 5 hours and never wear again.

    You should let them wear what we jewelers they want. You don’t have to buy them anything.

    Say you’re going with mixed metals and let them chose gold or silver.

    I agree with the others. I would also let the bridesmaids wear whatever jewelry they want.

    Let them pick and provide what they wear because many women are very picky about the metals.

    Agree with the others. Everyone has different taste and you're overthinking because this is not something your guests will notice, they will look at you and your man, 99% of guests don't care much about the bridal party and the parents of the couple.

    If you are asked to be a bridesmaid (or groomswoman) one day:would you want the bride to dictate what jewelry you can wear/what you CAN'T? I don't think so.

    Let them mix, however it comes out, not by plan but by the woman's choice.

    I think having asked them, buying each what they want would be the best option. I think it will look quite nice if they're the same style, just in silver and gold versions!

    Since you already asked I feel it would be best to let them decide which one to wear. I think it’ll look quite nice in pictures if you do silver and gold in that pattern too! But you are the bride and you are in charge!

    I would let them choose if they want to wear silver or gold as you have already given them an option. Also both colors will go really nice with plum 😊

    I agree with the others that have said to let them choose what metal color they want to wear! Both colors will look nice with that dress color!

    I think mixed metals will look fine! I am wearing silver and I told my bridesmaids they could wear whichever metal they prefer.

    Just let them wear whatever, you dont' even notice, they are happy, and everyone feels pretty.

    You won't even notice what kind of jewelry the BMs are wearing.

    I don't feel like you need to dictate much about their attire other than the dress and maybe guidelines for shoes (if their feet will be visible). It won't matter if some girls are wearing gold, some are wearing silver, and some have rose gold. Let each choose what they feel comfortable in and what flatters them best.
