Wedding Jewellery Checklist: Must-Have Pieces for Your Big Day

Your wedding day is one of the most important events of your life, and every detail matters. Among these, wedding jewellery plays a vital role in elevating your bridal look, adding a touch of elegance and completing your ensemble. At DM Jewellers, we specialise in helping Sunshine Coast couples find the perfect pieces to shine on their big day. Whether you’re looking for timeless classics or modern designs, this ultimate wedding jewellery checklist will ensure you’re prepared to dazzle.

1. Engagement Ring

The journey to your wedding day often begins with the perfect engagement ring. While the spotlight may shift to other jewellery pieces on your wedding day, your engagement ring remains a symbol of your commitment. Popular choices include:

  • Diamond Wedding Rings: Timeless and elegant, diamonds signify eternal love.

  • Custom Designs: Incorporate unique elements, like your birthstone or meaningful engravings.

If you haven’t selected an engagement ring yet, DM Jewellers on the Sunshine Coast offers a stunning collection of diamond wedding rings to match every style.

2. Wedding Rings

Your wedding rings are the most significant piece of jewellery you’ll wear. They symbolise your eternal bond and are worn daily as a reminder of your love. When choosing wedding rings, consider:

  • Gold Wedding Rings: Classic yellow, white, or rose gold bands are popular choices.

  • Matching Sets: Opt for his and hers wedding bands for a coordinated look.

  • Diamond Accents: Add sparkle with small diamond details.

Pro Tip: Start shopping for your wedding rings at least two months before the big day to allow time for sizing or customisations.

3. Necklace

A necklace is a statement piece that complements your bridal gown. When choosing a necklace, keep your dress neckline in mind:

  • Strapless Dresses: Opt for a bold pendant or diamond choker.

  • V-Necklines: A delicate drop necklace or Y-shaped design adds elegance.

  • High Necklines: Choose a subtle chain or skip the necklace and focus on earrings.

For brides on the Sunshine Coast, DM Jewellers offers a variety of necklace designs to suit every wedding style, from minimalist to opulent.

4. Earrings

Earrings are a must-have for adding sparkle near your face. Consider these styles:

  • Studs: Timeless diamond or pearl studs are perfect for understated elegance.

  • Drop Earrings: Add glamour with cascading designs featuring diamonds or gemstones.

  • Hoops: Sleek hoops adorned with diamonds are ideal for modern brides.

Remember to match your earrings with other pieces in your wedding jewellery set for a cohesive look.

5. Bracelet or Bangle

A bracelet or bangle adds a touch of sophistication to your bridal look. Whether you prefer:

  • Classic Tennis Bracelets: Rows of shimmering diamonds for a luxurious feel.

  • Stacked Designs: Layer multiple bangles for a boho-chic vibe.

DM Jewellers’ collection of bracelets ensures there’s something for every bride on the Sunshine Coast.

6. Hair Accessories

Hair accessories are the unsung heroes of bridal jewellery. These pieces can elevate your hairstyle while adding a magical touch:

  • Tiaras: Perfect for a fairytale-inspired look.

  • Hairpins: Adorned with pearls or diamonds for subtle sparkle.

  • Headbands: Great for a bohemian or modern aesthetic.

Coordinate your hair accessories with your wedding jewellery for a unified look.

7. Brooches

Brooches are a versatile addition to your wedding jewellery collection. Pin them to your gown, bouquet, or even your veil for a vintage-inspired touch.

8. Groom’s Accessories

Let’s not forget about the groom! Matching wedding bands for him and her create a cohesive look. Grooms can also consider:

  • Cufflinks: Personalised cufflinks with initials or a special date.

  • Tie Pins: Add a subtle touch of luxury to his attire.

  • Bracelets: A sleek gold or silver bracelet pairs well with formal wear.

DM Jewellers on the Sunshine Coast offers a range of groom’s accessories to complement your bridal style.


9. Sentimental Pieces

Incorporating sentimental jewellery, such as heirlooms or gifts from loved ones, adds emotional value to your bridal look. Pair these with new wedding jewellery pieces to create a meaningful ensemble.

Tips for Choosing Your Wedding Jewellery

Match Your Style

Your jewellery should complement your personal style and wedding theme. For instance, if you’re having a beach wedding on the Sunshine Coast, opt for nature-inspired designs or minimalist pieces.

Balance is Key

Avoid overloading your look with too many bold pieces. If your dress is heavily embellished, opt for simpler jewellery to avoid a cluttered appearance.

Prioritise Comfort

You’ll be wearing your jewellery for hours, so ensure it’s comfortable and secure. Pay special attention to earrings and necklaces that won’t snag or feel heavy.

Coordinate with Your Partner

Matching or complementary wedding bands are a beautiful way to symbolise your unity. For example, choose gold wedding rings with similar engravings or finishes.
