Tacky to wear gold earrings when my ring is white gold?

Abby, on February 22, 2018 at 9:40 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 10
I am just starting to look at jewelry to wear on the big day. I have 3 holes in each ear I would like to fill. The top hole always has my grandmother's gold/Ruby studs that I definitely would like to wear. I know the other earrings should then be gold as well. What I am wondering is if it looks tacky having different colored jewelry on at the same time. Thanks!

    Not tacky at all. Mixing metals in accessories is quite fashionable.

    If it's tacky then I guess I've been tacky for a long time! I have 2 holes in each ear and my cartilage and I have yellow gold ruby studs and all my other earrings are white gold. I think it's fine Smiley smile

    I mixed metals on everyday (rose gold engagement ring and silver wedding band)!

    I don’t think so. My ring is white gold and I wore yellow gold earrings, a yellow gold bracelet, and a yellow gold opal ring on my right hand on my wedding day. I frequently mix metals - nothing tacky about it! But I had the same thoughts when choosing jewelry for my wedding day.

    I've always felt like wedding rings get a free pass for matching your other jewelry.

    My engagement ring is white gold, wedding band is yellow gold, and necklace/bracelet are sterling silver so I'm mixing metals all over the place. I've tried it all on together and think it looks fine!

    Same! I feel like engagement and wedding rings don’t count as far as matching goes. If they did I wouldn’t get to wear 1/2 my jewelry ever again!

    That's something I would never notice on someone even if it was tacky. Don't worry about it at all, wear what you like.

    My ring is platinum and I am considering gold jewelry also! I think I’m going to do it I think it will look nice with the color/style of my dress. I’ve never really worn gold anything before lol
