9 Wedding Jewelry Trends for Your 2022 Wedding
1. Vintage Family Heirloom
Vintage is back in style. After all, what could be more precious than wearing your grandmother’s pearls? For brides with close family members, old family heirlooms are a beautiful way to honor those you value most on this special day. From your mother’s pearl earrings to your grandmother’s ring, heirloom jewelry brings you closer to the people you love. As Harry Diamond, owner of the jewelry house Cry For The Moon in Guildford, says: “Jewelry not only reflects beauty, it marks the most important moments in our lives.”
2. Statement Earrings
The attitude of many brides this year is: go big or go home. After the tumultuous year of 2021, when many brides postponed their celebrations due to lockdowns, 2022 brings hope for unforgettable family weddings. And what better way to celebrate than with a pair of stunning earrings? From colorful eye-catching designs to elegant shiny pieces, bold earrings are a huge wedding trend to watch in 2022.
3. 90s Choker Necklace
It’s official: chokers from the 90s are back in fashion in 2022. Perfect for brides who love a chic wedding style, they’re the ultimate jewelry accessory. Whether it’s a simple choker with sparkling details or delicate diamond lace, chokers are elegant and sexy – a popular jewelry choice for 2022 bridal looks.
4. Stunning Drop Earrings
If you're stuck choosing jewelry and unsure what will match your dress best, consider drop earrings. Refined and stylish, drop earrings complement any bridal outfit. Whether you’re going for a formal gown or a tailored wedding suit, drop earrings gracefully hug your ears and add a sophisticated touch to your look.
5. Stackable Rings
Rings are perfect for any bridal look, and stackable rings bring extra style. Choose from a wide range of shades, shapes, and sizes to find the one that suits you best. For a more sophisticated effect, try midi rings to highlight your manicure. If you prefer something simple and classic, why not opt for plain silver or gold bands? The options are endless, but the final result should aim for perfection.
6. Channel Royalty with Wedding Tiaras
Every bride should feel like a queen on her wedding day – and nothing says royalty like a dazzling tiara. Brides in 2022 are taking their look to the next level with sparkling tiaras from houses like Chaumet, De Beers, or Garrard. From elegant headbands to striking statement pieces that exude sophistication, brides will look more enchanting than ever. Traditionally, tiaras are the perfect accessory, worn as a symbol of love.
7. Elegant Bracelet Designs
An elegant bracelet can add just the right amount of sparkle to your wedding look. Brides are glowing more than ever this year. That’s why tennis bracelets have become a favorite for those opting for long sleeves. Our tip: wear the bracelet on your right hand so it doesn’t steal the spotlight from your stunning new engagement ring!
8. Traditional Pearls
Pearls are a timeless choice for brides and are always in fashion. They complement any wedding dress style and convey an air of elegance, simplicity, and purity.
9. Sapphire for Something Blue
Many brides follow the traditional rhyme: “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.” And brides in 2021 continued this trend with striking sapphire jewelry. Graceful sapphire pendants are especially popular for their stunning effect. Birthstones are also a beloved option, and sapphire can add a cool, meaningful touch of color to your bridal look. A pair of simple pearl earrings or a pearl pendant can bring a sense of refined beauty to your wedding look. What’s more, pearls naturally brighten your appearance, making every skin tone look lighter and more radiant.
