Choosing the accessories for your wedding can be such a daunting process: but really, you can keep it simple by following one golden rule: be yourself.
In the same way that the choices you make throughout the planning of your wedding day should reflect you and your husband-to-be’s life, tastes and choices, so too should your wedding jewellery and accessories.
If you are typically drawn to simple, classic and chic jewellery, then don’t all of a sudden opt for great chandelier earrings or a statement necklace for your wedding day: it will end up wearing you leaving you feeling uncomfortable. Opt instead for designs that follow your own personal style such as classic pearls, simple studs, and chic pearl and diamante pins in a chignon or high bun.
Our Set of 3 Violet pins (2 sets used) £36
Chez Bec Simplicity Pearl Earrings £26
Likewise, if you’re usually one to wear a statement necklace or you love a hat, then why not wear one on the most important day of your life? Just make sure that you let the necklace do all the talking and keep your other bridal accessories simple – perhaps some simple pearl studs or diamante drops (our Ivory elegance studs or Hepburn II earrings would be perfect!). We designed our Downton necklace with statement lovers in mind.
Chez Bec Downton Necklace £72
And don’t forget that you can make a statement from the back as well as the front – our Abigail Back-lace is simply perfect for the current backless dress trend.

And of course, Chez Bec are always ready with plenty of pearls and vintage chic – our Hepburn and Downton ranges are pure vintage inspired chic, perfect for those of you that want to channel the 1920s glamour on your big day.
Lady Mary Tiara from Chez Bec £168
Biggest tip of all? You don’t need to wear everything all at once! There’s the classic quote from Coco Chanel “when accessorizing, always take off the last thing you put on”, and this is so true of your wedding day accessories. If you fall in love with two very different hair accessories, there’s nothing to stop you wearing one in the day, and the other in the evening. Likewise, you could whip off those simple chic studs and tiara and opt for a statement pair of vintage earrings for the party!
