If your wedding day falls during the autumn this year, you're probably wondering what accessories to style your gown with. Jewelry is the clear choice, so it's great to know what's trending and what's not. However, above all, always remember to choose what you love. Your personal style is a big factor in choosing jewelry so don't make the mistake of wearing something just because it's trendy or skipping a piece you adore just because it doesn't have a place on the hot list this year.
What's Hot
Just like any other, the wedding industry sees certain jewelry trends that come and go. This year the wedding trends for fall 2024 are a mix of things past and new spins on old ideas. No matter what you love best, your jewelry collection is crying out for any of the items here as you prepare for your wedding day.
Flowers, Flowers, Flowers
This is a trend that continues into the Fall of 2024, having made the spotlight for several seasons. Whether you opt for something with intricate details or a statement piece, choosing a floral motif will be a hot trend all through the autumn. Consider a pair of floral chandelier earrings or a lovely floral necklace that enhances your gown in the best way.
Colored Gemstones
18k White Gold Classic Style Green Emerald & Diamond Engagement Ring
These days, you don't have to be restricted to pearls and diamonds for a formal event, your wedding included. Colored gemstones are having a moment this fall and with the deep, rich colors the season evokes, consider adding some pops of color to your wedding look with a ruby necklace, a pair of sapphire earrings (your something blue), or a stunning emerald ring.
Vintage Glamour
Vintage has been having its time to shine for several seasons now, and you'll continue to see this classic elegance year for weddings all through the fall. Anything that brings feelings of yesteryear is going to be a good choice. Maybe it's an Art Deco vibe, a pair of fabulous chandelier earrings, or something accented with pearls. Of course, there's always the option to choose family heirloom pieces for your wedding day. Whatever you choose, the timeless elegance of vintage finds is a trend that's here to stay.
Yellow Gold
While many brides opt for white gold to match the white of their dress, this year in one of the most prevalent wedding trends, brides are leaning into yellow gold instead. It lends a luxurious and sophisticated feel to your style for the big day. Yellow gold pairs with a wide range of other jewelry elements and has a luster that pairs wonderfully with the autumn season. Try a chain bracelet, a beautiful tennis necklace, or a vintage ring to enhance your look.
Personalized Jewelry
This year, more couples are choosing wedding jewelry with personal details. This allows you both to find exactly what you want. Custom designs let you showcase your relationship and love with styles that match your dress for the day, but can also be items you choose for everyday wear after your nuptials are complete and you start your life together. Design an engagement ring of your very own, whether you want something big and glittery or small intricate designs are more your style.
Modern and Minimal
Clean lines and simple designs are something many brides are gravitating toward this fall. Geometric shapes are another trend that's hot right now. Something understated and elegant offers timeless appeal and looks stunning with your gown. A diamond tennis bracelet or diamond necklace makes a lovely choice for that understated elegance you're looking for.
Ethical and Sustainable
Couples everywhere are more focused and aware of the environment these days, which means that ethical and sustainable jewelry is hot for fall 2024. Lab-grown diamonds make a bold fashion statement, while also considering the mining standards and practices that can harm workers and the environment. If environmental responsibility is a priority for you, lab-grown gemstones for all your wedding jewelry.
What's Not
Before you read through the list of what's not trending this year, remember that you can wear whatever makes you happy, regardless of what everyone else is doing. However, if trends are important to you, here are a few things that seem to be going out of style this year.
The Traditional Diamond Solitaire
Many brides are opting for a contemporary style that features pearls over diamonds. Some of this has to do with sustainability and ethical mining practices, while some brides are shying away from diamonds in favor of something unique that every other bride won't be wearing.
Big, Heavy Pieces
You can make a statement on your big day without going over the top with huge, heavy pieces of jewelry. Modern brides are choosing smaller, more understated pendants and earrings to create a classic silhouette. These smaller items are more versatile and can be worn for other events after the wedding is over.
Matched Sets
Because minimalism is trending, you're less likely to see the matchy-matchy wedding sets of yesteryear. Brides are choosing simple jewelry pieces that add a touch of elegance without overwhelming their gown and taking the attention away from them. Delicate pearl details and small gemstones are more in favor these days.
Conclusion
If you want to make a bold statement at your wedding, you have so many options for fall. From autumn-colored gemstones to luxurious yellow gold to the elegance of pearls and diamonds, there are loads of options that let you look and feel your best on the most important day of your life.
