The Edges Wedding Photography

Even brides don't typically wear a great deal of jewelry or accessories in everyday life can get on board with the idea of wearing a pretty bracelet on their wedding day. Unlike earrings or necklaces, bracelets don't sit super close to your wedding dress, so you won't have to worry about whether the one you like with complement or clash with the neckline of your gown. That makes shopping for something you can wear on the big day and for years to come a little bit easier.

We also like that they can be as subtle or statement-making as you want. A thin gold chain with a charm or two will just add a nice, polished finishing touch to your look, as will a classic tennis bracelet encrusted with glittering diamonds. If something a little more contemporary is what you're after, an architectural bangle—maybe one with a few diamonds or other gemstones—will add a modern, yet glamorous edge to your look. Pearls are always a classic choice, though we tend to favor pearl bracelets done in a more modern way—instead of wearing a full strand of pearls around your wrist, try a delicate gold or silver chain with a pearl or two featured on it. Cuffs are always a great way to make your wedding look feel fresh and new, as well. (As an added bonus, they won't clang around when you're dancing.) If you want to infuse color into your day-of outfit, know that you can also do so with the bracelet you choose. Find one with eye-catching gemstones and it will stand out just enough against the white of your dress.

Here, we've rounded up beautiful bracelets for every type of bride to wear on her wedding day.
