BRIDESMAID JEWELRY & GIFTS

The best bridesmaid jewelry gifts are effortless yet elegant. Consider selecting timeless designs that your closest friends will keep for a lifetime, such as Solitaire necklaces and studs. Both the Tiny Station, Bezel Station Necklaces and Bezel bracelets are popular bridesmaid choices as well, as they are light and add the perfect amount of shine to any wedding party look. Bezel Earrings or Bezel Drop Huggie Hoops are also often sought after as they add elegance to your special occasion, but are also great for everyday wear. 

How you ask someone to be a part of your wedding party is entirely up to you. Asking can be as simple or as elaborate as you want the overall wedding experience to be. The process usually starts with making a list of the friends and family you want standing by your side on this special day. Afterwards, many choose to meet face to face with their loved ones to formally ask. A growing trend is to offer a bridesmaid proposal box with a handwritten letter or card, as well as small gifts. After the bridesmaid says yes, they are connected with other members of the bridal party so that trying on dresses or wedding day attire, coordinating pre-nuptial celebrations, and other organizational details can be streamlined.

Gifting a bridesmaid jewelry set that includes matching earrings and bracelets is a popular way to style those in your wedding party. Consider pairing together VRAI x Style Me Pretty matching designs, such as the Perennial Studs and Perennial Cuff for a beautifully-coordinated look. Other options for matching bridesmaid jewelry sets include pairing Solitaire or Bezel  necklaces and studs.

If you decide to offer a bridesmaid proposal box, the most important thing to include is a letter or card formally asking the person to join your wedding party. Many like to include small gifts perfectly tailored to that individual, from their favorite chocolates to a scented candle they’re sure to love. If you’ve already chosen jewelry you’d like them to wear during the ceremony, this would be an ideal time to gift it to them. 

Bridal and bridesmaid jewelry do not have to match perfectly, but many prefer to choose pieces that compliment one another. If a bride has a platinum engagement ring as well as a platinum wedding ring, for example, they might want to select white gold jewelry for themselves and everyone else to match. If the bride has a favorite diamond shape — Round Brilliant diamond jewelry, for instance — they might choose bridesmaids jewelry that features that shape exclusively.
