Colour-Coordinating Wedding Jewellery with Bridal Lehenga and Saree

Colour-Coordinating Wedding Jewellery with Bridal Lehenga and Saree

Every bride-to-be takes months in selecting the right lehenga or saree. Every color combination, every embroidery style…  These factors are scrutinized and selected with utmost importance. But once that part of the process is out of the way, it is now time to choose jewellery, which many brides simply overlook in favor of finishing the process in preparation for the big day.

Jewellery, however, is more than just accessories, it should act as the frame of the outfit. The right choice of bridal jewellery would complement the other pieces, making your ensemble truly stunning. A wrong choice, on the other hand, could clash horribly with your ensemble.

The Art of Matchmaking

In looking at the different colors, it would be helpful first to learn about the art of coordinating outfits and jewellery. There are two basic methods that a bride may use for this purpose:

Matching: this involves selecting jewellery stones that complement the color of the dress in question. This could be selecting ruby tones when wearing a red lehenga, for example.

Contrasting: the opposite strategy of creating a contrast between the jewelry worn and the dress itself. Emerald green jewellery would be appropriate for someone wearing a red lehenga while a bride who wears an ivory saree can go for sapphire blue accessories.

Let's move to applying the concept in the three most common colors for a wedding dress.

Royal Red Bridal Lehenga or Saree

Red is the color that comes to mind when thinking about bridal colors in India  and with good reason. This is a vibrant, lucky, and camera-friendly color. However, since the red color itself is quite bold, jewelry needs to be chosen wisely, so as not to overshadow it. Here are few Ishhaara Picks for Red Bridal Outfits

Over the past few years, Green has become one of the most popular wedding colors ranging from deep shades such as emerald green to lighter ones like pista and sage.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I match jewellery with a red bridal lehenga?

The secret to pairing jewelry with the red bridal lehenga lies in working with jewelry that is dominant in gold, thereby supporting the warm nature of red and not competing with it. Polki jewelry, whose natural uncut stone quality combined with gold makes for the perfect match with the red wedding lehenga, stands out among all others in this regard.  

What jewellery suits a green bridal lehenga or saree?

The direction that one can take in green bridal wears is either the monochrome method, which uses jewellery made from emerald or green stones, or the contrast method, which makes use of ruby or pearl against green colour. An option of the deep green lehenga would be a complete green Kundan or Polki set to go with the bridal outfit, while light green such as pista green could make use of gold and pearls for an elegant effect.  

What jewellery works best with ivory or white bridal outfits?

The best combination with jewellery when it comes to ivory or bridal wear is a white outfit that provides ample freedom to incorporate any color and even metal for jewellery. Gold and Polki jewellery make a great combination with ivory owing to its warm and classic appeal, whereas pearl jewellery is best paired with the creamy white shades of bridal wear.  

Let Colour Be Your Guide

Bridal outfits that leave a lasting impression never do so by chance, there is always intention behind such looks, which must be defined clearly and decisively. No matter whether you are a red lehenga bride looking to add some dramatic flair with gold Polki jewelry, a green saree bride uncovering her love for emerald Kundan jewelry, or an ivory bridal outfit wearer crafting her entire bridal color palette with jewelry alone, there’s definitely an Ishhaara jewelry piece created just for that occasion.
