Choosing the Perfect Bridal Earrings for Your Wedding Dress

When we think of weddings, the dress often takes centre stage. We can't argue that a wedding dress isn't important, but of course it is. Have you considered that it's the jewellery that really makes it all come together?

With a plethora of jewellery designs and materials to choose from, it can be daunting when it comes to the big day. What if the earrings don't match the wedding ring? Or what if they fall out during the first dance?

These concerns are valid, but don't worry, Camile & Stone are here to guide you through some of the best wedding earrings you can choose that match your personal style while making you feel like a beautiful bride.

Selecting Earrings That Match Your Wedding Theme

First thing first, what's the theme of your wedding day? Think about the colour palette, dress code, and the decor. To honour the theme, choose earrings that compliment the surroundings.

For example, if you have a minimalistic, chic theme, pair it with some simple stud earrings, perhaps with pearls to add an extra flair. Some small hoop earrings would also be perfect for this look.

What's more, you can dance the night away in these styles of earrings as they don't get in the way. In the same practical vein, only choose earrings made from hypoallergenic materials. The last thing you want on your special day is an itchy rash.

If you've gone for a specific theme, such as a beach wedding, shell or pearl drop earrings would be ideal. Bring the free-spirited nature into the rest of your jewellery collection with a refined shell necklace or pearl bracelet.

How to Choose Earrings for a Rustic or Vintage Wedding

There is nothing more cozy than a rustic wedding. The food is wholesome, and the decor is something from a fantasy, but choosing earrings to match this specific vibe can be a challenge.

For the special day, we suggest a gorgeous pair of barbell earrings. They tend to be whimsical yet are a picture of elegance. Nature is also a big aspect of rustic weddings. Embrace this with earrings that have leaf motifs or butterflies.

Regarding materials, a rustic wedding would be an ideal event to showcase a pair of rose gold or gold earrings. The warm tones complement the colour palette and atmosphere. If your skin has warm undertones and your hair is brunette, even better!

A vintage wedding is all about grandeur and beauty. It would be a shame not to take full advantage of this theme. Silver is a great choice here; it excuses glamour and would suit the cool tones of the dress, tablecloths, and flowers.

Try something luxurious with some chandelier earrings. They are perfect statement earrings for a vintage wedding and will certainly make you feel like a princess.

Elegant Earring Options for a Formal Wedding Theme

Every child's dream is a formal wedding in a big, beautiful venue! Don't let the pressure get to your earring choice, though; many different styles work with a formal wedding.

Our first choice for formal brides would be diamonds. If your hair is up, drop earrings would be best. They fill up the space between your stunning dress and your hair without taking all the attention for themselves.

Choose diamond studs if you have long, loose hair. You don't want your earrings to be hidden all night.

Also, consider what necklace to pair with the earrings. As it is a formal wedding, choose a necklace with a fine chain and a small pendant.

Our Initial Letter Solid Heart Necklace is perfect for the big day. Feel free to personalise it with your and your loved one's initials for a meaningful accessory to say 'I do' in.

It's important to balance the jewellery pieces to ensure they don't overwhelm one another and that you wear them instead of them wearing you.

Accessorising Your Wedding Theme with the Right Earring Style

Since it's your special day, you have every right to wear whatever earring style you want. Having said this, if you want everything to feel perfect, take careful consideration with how your earrings will match with the theme.

Do you want to wear statement earrings, but your theme is timeless glamour? You still absolutely can! Approach it from a creative angle, and you can make almost any pair of earrings work for you.

For example, our Livia Statement Dome Earrings may be loud and proud, but they are extremely elegant. Earrings like this add just the right amount of personality and warmth because, after all, this ceremony is a celebration of two unique people coming together as one.

Are you a hoop lover but feel they won't belong at your wedding? This is far from the truth; in fact, we have lots of sapphire hoop earrings that would be perfect.

If you feel there are no earrings that perfectly suit your theme, experiment with charms. A pair of hoop or huggie earrings can be personalised with charms either by a jeweller or by yourself.

Customising Bridal Earrings to Fit Your Wedding Theme

It's common practice to tailor a dress or personalise a cake, so why not customise your bridal earrings?

You can customise earrings to make them feel more 'you'. This may include adding charms, engraving them with the date of your wedding or the name of your partner, or adjusting them in other ways to make them more comfortable.

To some extent, you can customise earrings yourself by mixing and matching. If you have numerous piercings in your ear, you can experiment with adding a cartilage and helix earring or ear cuffs.

You can also match with your bridesmaids or wear earrings that complement elements of their dress. For example, you could wear emerald drop earrings which match the same green shade of their dresses.

Camile & Stone offers customers a personalised engraving service that allows you to have a bar or pendant necklace engraved with a name, date, or short phrase.

Our goal is to create jewellery to be treasured for a lifetime so you can look back on that day with fondness as you both grow old together.
