Bridesmaids Jewelry

Local Eclectic has a lot of unique pieces with real gold, stones, etc. at an affordable price point!

Are you expecting them to wear it at the wedding? If not a gift card might be better.

I got my bridesmaids jewelry from Zales. Their jewelry was sale. You could try Pandora.

If you are wanting them to wear the jewelry for the wedding that isn't a gift. Bridesmaids' gifts should be unique to each girl. Shop for them like it was their birthday. Anything you are getting for them for the wedding is wedding accessories that you want for photos.

OP said “one of”, so she already said she’s not just gifting her bridesmaids the accessories for the wedding. It’s totally fine to give your bridal party the accessories rather than asking them to wear their own (also totally fine) or making them buy a certain look (totes rude!). And it’s also fine to wrap it in cute packaging and get them nice jewelry with their tastes in mind in the hopes that they will wear it again after the wedding.


OP, to answer your question, Dareth Colburn has really nice affordable pieces. I ordered a veil and some jewelry from there and really like both. I also got one of my bridesmaids a ring from GLDN (as part of her gift, not her wedding jewelry). They’re a little pricier but still have stuff in your price range and have lots of nice customizable options. I had to exert all my self control not to get myself a necklace when I ordered my BM’s ring lol.

I disagree strongly. Contrary to what some seem to believe It has never been traditionally appropriate to require bridesmaids to wear specific jewelry, shoes, accessories etc. even if it is given to them as a gift. Brides have input into the dress and perhaps a common shoe color. Hair, makeup, nails, accessories and jewelry remain personal choices. IMO the wedding party should consist of one's friends, not be expected to look like identical dress up dolls on a chorus line.

Thank you for your feedback but that was not what I was asking for.

Yes, my BMs have lower budgets than I do so I figured it would be nice to surprise them with jewelry so that they have something to wear for the wedding. I figured I would find similar jewelry but that suits their personalities.

Awesome! I will definitely take a look.

Thank you for understanding where I am coming from. I didn't intend to trigger some. Anyways, I will definitely look into Dareth Colburn & see if that would be a good option for me. Thanks again!!

Actually, it's not appropriate to require they wear the specific jewelry of your choosing whether or not you make a gift of it.

CM - I have been in several weddings where the bride gifted jewelry and requested that we wear it and not one BM ever had a complaint. I don't understand why this bothers you though. My wedding is very formal and none of my girls have anything that they would be happy to wear for the event. Therefore, this is very thoughtful gift to give. I wasn't asking for your opinion on how to operate my wedding. Or even what are the dos and donts. I was asking if anyone knew of a good brand of jewelry for BMs. I take it that you don't. So again, thank you for your unnecessary feedback but I strongly feel that you are speaking out of term. Hope you have a good one.

What you do or don't do doesn't "bother" me in the least, I promise. However, this is a public forum where people have diverse views and answers are not always what you want to hear. Sometimes an appropriate reply to a question is "that's not a good idea." That's not out of turn.

Especially at a "very formal" wedding, which goes by traditional standards, IMO BMs should be viewed as individuals, not props, free to wear or borrow any jewelry they like or none at all if that's their style.

No one is likely to protest to your face and your friends may not even feel that way, but a true gift has no strings attached.

I completely disagree with you. It is extremely common to purchase jewelry for BMs and don't see how it is rude. Also, I am not treating my BMs as a prop. The fact that you are implying that I am not treating them as human beings in ridiculous and out of line.

I've been a bridesmaid in multiple weddings where the bride bought us jewelry to wear. Allow me to suggest getting something sterling silver or hypoallergenic. While that may seem obvious, one bride didn't do that and didn't ask what we could wear. I had to wear it (a necklace) for the ceremony and reception, had an allergic reaction, and never wore it again. I felt bad because it was pretty, but such a waste.

View Quoted Comment You’re not disagreeing with me you’re disagreeing with traditional etiquette, and the idea that your friends should be treated as individuals not an identical chorus line from head to toe.

I had great experience with Etsy. I would just rely on the reviews before moving forward with a purchase since every one I've had you can't return.

Wow! I'm sorry to hear that happened to you. Hopefully it wasn't too bad of a reaction. Thank you for sharing as it this such a great and valid point! I definitely do not want anyone to have any allergic reactions ( on wedding day or not). I would feel so terrible.
