Whether your dress is a v-neck, strapless, cowl neck or cap sleeve, you are going to look absolutely gorgeous in any type of necklace and earrings That being said, we do have some expert recommendations based on which neckline you went with for your wedding dress.
Below, our best recommendations of diamond necklaces to wear with every wedding dress neckline.
Jewelry for Strapless Wedding Dresses with a Straight Neckline
If you’re wearing something with a straight neckline, you’ll want to keep your necklace on the shorter side, hitting a few inches above the start of your dress, and avoid anything too big and bold.
Your necklace should match the simplicity of this style, so we’d recommend a diamond tennis necklace…
…or a graduated-style necklace with dainty solitaires.
