Bridal Jewelry Trends for 2024: What’s In and What’s Out

Planning to get married this year? Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life, so you’ll want everything to be perfect down to the smallest of details. Once you’ve said yes to your wedding dress, it feels like the hardest part is over; now, you get to visit a bridal jewelry store and enjoy searching for the perfect bridal jewelry to match your dress! But before you go, here’s a quick overview of the top bridal jewelry trends we’re seeing this year.  

Bridal ring stacks

Stackable rings are making a huge splash in 2024. These diamond-accented bands can be matched with the engagement ring to allow brides to create a unique look. What’s great about these stackable bridal rings is that you can mix and match different bands to craft a custom jewelry design that’s entirely your own. 

Whether you prefer a classic, elegant vibe or a more contemporary, trendy appearance, stackable rings offer endless possibilities. You can start with a matching engagement ring and wedding band, then gradually add more bands over the years, each representing a special milestone in your married life. Consider options like this stackable Dantela diamond wedding band or this east-west oval shared prong eternity band to start building your personalized set.

Statement drop earrings 

An updo is a popular hairstyle choice for brides because it pairs well with the bridal veil and puts the focus on the detailed neckline of the wedding gown. It also looks incredibly glamorous when paired with statement drop earrings. These earrings can enhance the overall bridal look by drawing attention to the face and complementing the hairstyle. 

Whether you prefer something floral and delicate or bold and sparkling, there are plenty of options to choose from, such as these stunning Goddess Garden flower petal drop earrings and pave drop diamond earrings that are bound to add drama to your bridal look. 

Floral jewelry 

Flowers aren’t just for the bridal bouquet anymore. In 2024, more brides are embracing floral motifs as one of the latest jewelry trends. This trend brings nature’s beauty into your wedding look, and adds a romantic and whimsical vibe. Look for stunning options like this pair of diamond flower drop earrings that make a bold statement, or these delicate diamond floral studs for a more understated look. From Chanel’s iconic Bouton de Camélia to Mikimoto’s classic Cherry Blossom collections, floral jewelry is everywhere.   

Gemstone jewelry  

While white and colorless diamonds are timeless classics, colorful gemstones are becoming increasingly popular for bridal jewelry this year. These vibrant stones can bring a fresh, modern feel to your bridal ensemble while still maintaining an air of sophistication. 

Consider pieces like an emerald round-cut tennis bracelet for a touch of green, a blue sapphire tennis necklace for something blue, or a teardrop pave pink sapphire and diamond earrings for a pretty pop of pink. These vibrant pieces are sure to make your bridal ensemble stand out on your special day.

Pearl jewelry 

Pearls are no longer just for traditional bridal looks. In 2024, they’ve taken on a modern edge that pushes the boundaries of what we know of as classic pearl jewelry. Designers are experimenting with unique stringing methods, pairing the stone with other gemstones, and playing with different sizes and shapes to create stunning pieces that feel both fresh and timeless. 

There are countless ways to incorporate pearls into your bridal ensemble. Embrace the new and better version of pearl jewelry with these convertible Akoya pearl drop earrings, Akoya pearl station bracelet, and Akoya pearl lariat pendant. 

Vintage-inspired pieces

Vintage-inspired jewelry is perfect for brides who love a touch of nostalgia and wish to bring timeless elegance to their wedding look. These pieces draw inspiration from past eras, from the geometric lines and bold colors of Art Deco designs to the intricate detailing and romantic motifs of Victorian-era jewelry. Incorporating vintage-inspired pieces into your bridal ensemble can evoke a sense of old-world charm, such as this vintage milgrain edge matching band, vintage milgrain cushion halo engagement ring, and Art Deco channel baguette diamond earrings. Choosing the perfect bridal jewelry is an exciting part of wedding planning. With so many trends to explore in 2024, there are endless ways to express your personal style on your big day. Take your time exploring these trends when you shop at a trusted and bespoke luxury retailer like Zadok Jewelers, who can help you find the pieces that will make you feel truly special.
