do you have any ‘golden rules’ for pairing couture jewellery with a wedding gown? It’s important to consider everything together, what your wedding dress is like, bridesmaid dresses, wedding theme as well as any personal requests or tastes. If you stay true to all these elements then the craft of making the jewellery happens naturally. what is your best advice for brides considering statement accessories for their wedding day? With each bride, I always advise them to follow their own heart. Many times people are almost afraid to say what they really like, being intimidated by what others will think of their choices on the big day. A wedding should be about the celebration of the couple and the bride should be able to take the opportunity to create a piece she’s always dreamed about irrespective of others’ opinions. Don’t be afraid to go for the larger statement earrings should you want something different to what you’d normally wear. At the same time, there’s nothing wrong with knowing what you do like, so if that is a delicate pair of embellished studs, it can be just as spectacular. What matters is how you will feel wearing it and as long as you are happy and love the piece, you’ll look beautiful and smile radiantly on the big day.
