Choosing the Perfect Wedding Accessories for Your Bridesmaids

Now that we know how important bridal party wedding accessories are, let's dive into some spectacular bridesmaid accessory ideas and the specifics of selecting them.

Factors to Consider When Choosing Wedding Accessories

Before you start shopping for wedding accessories, there are a few key factors to keep in mind:

  1. Wedding ThemeYour accessories should align with your overall wedding aesthetic. Going for a traditional desi vibe? Opt for a gorgeous polki or kundan jewellery set. Planning a modern soirée? Sleek, minimalist bridesmaid jewellery sets will do the trick, adding a refined touch to complement the contemporary style.
  2. Bridesmaid Dress Colours: Make sure your accessory choices complement, not clash, with your bridesmaids' outfit colours. Gold tones beautifully offset rich hues like burgundy and emerald, while silver adds a cool touch to pastel shades.
  3. Comfort: Your girls will be wearing these accessories all day, so prioritise pieces that are lightweight and easy to wear. Skip the oversized jhumkas that'll weigh them down on the dance floor!
  4. Versatility: Choose accessories your bridesmaids can rewear for other occasions. Classic pieces like pearl studs or a dainty bracelet are timeless additions to any jewellery box.

Now that you have a framework in place, let's talk specifics!



Here's how to match bridesmaid jewellery sets with different bridesmaid outfits:

Matching Accessories with Lehenga

The lehenga is a quintessential bridesmaid outfit that's equal parts elegant and fun.

To style this look with wedding accessories:

  • Pick a choker necklace that sits prettily on the collarbone, drawing attention to the lehenga blouse's neckline. This stunning Radiant Indigo Blue Lehenga from Mohey pairs perfectly with a delicate diamond choker.
  • Add a maang tikka for a touch of traditional glamour. Choose one with a dainty chain that drapes beautifully over the forehead.
  • Opt for chaandbalis or jhumkas for the ears - these dangling beauties frame the face and add movement to the look.
  • A stack of glittering bangles in a complementary metallic finish would be a stunning bridesmaid accessory idea that pulls the ensemble together with a festive flourish.

Bridesmaid Accessories Ideas for Designer Saree

For bridesmaids donning designer sarees, the key is to let the saree shine while adding a touch of sparkle.

Consider these bridesmaid accessory ideas:

  • ranii haar or long, layered necklace draws the eye to the saree's intricate details. It's the perfect match for this Sea Green Nouvea Patterned Saree by Mohey.
  • Skip the nath (nose ring) and maang tikka to avoid an overly bridal look. Instead, opt for pretty jhumkas or chaandbalis that peek out elegantly from the saree's pallu.
  • A single statement bangle or a delicate haath phool (hand harness) adds a modern edge to this elegant attire.
  • Complete the look with complementary wedding accessories like an embellished potli or clutch that's roomy enough to hold wedding day essentials.

  • Alternatively, a cascading rani haar or pearl mala can add a regal touch to a sleek jumpsuit or asymmetrical kurta set.
  • Ditch the bangles and opt for a single cocktail ring or a pair of embellished cuffs that peek out from the sleeves.
  • shimmery clutch or potli with tassels is the ideal finishing touch for this fusion look when it comes to bridesmaid accessory ideas.
