So, if you’re currently planning your wedding, pay close attention, as we’re looking into which accessories you should wear on your special day. From watches and cufflinks to necklaces and earrings, your accessories will remain in your wedding photographs forever, so ensuring they look incredible and mean something to you is essential; let’s find out more.
The Best Wedding Watches for a Groom
A wedding schedule is often very strict, so if you have a tendency to be tardy, you need to invest in a watch that will ensure you don’t miss a second. Here at Banks Lyon, we understand that aesthetics play a huge part in wedding watches, and you may not be interested in purchasing an all-singing, all-dancing model. However, we’re here to demonstrate that looks and functionality both play integral roles in the perfect wedding watch for grooms. Although all functions may not be useful on the day itself, they will come in handy after the wedding and ensure you get the most out of your purchase.
For example, the OMEGA Speedmaster Super Racing Chronograph 44.25 Watch not only looks great but performs brilliantly with META-certified Co-Axial Master Chronograph 9920. Pick it up today for £10,700 or just £89.16 per month on 0% finance.
Watches for Brides-to-Be
For timely brides, a watch is a crucial element to the overall look. However, it’s understandable that you may not want a piece that will take away anything from your
dress, so finding a beautiful, subtle watch is key. Here at Banks Lyon, we have plenty of timepieces ideal for brides, no matter their personal style. For example, this elegant Longines LaGrande Classique 29mm Quartz Watch is the perfect piece for a bride on her big day. The colour, simplistic and classic design and subtle placement of diamond numerals makes this watch a must for brides.
This Longines watch is available from Banks Lyon for £1,340 or just £11.16 per month on 0% finance.
How to Choose Cufflinks for Your Wedding Day
When it comes to choosing cufflinks for your wedding day, your options are truly endless. Here are our top tips for deciding which pair you should go for:
- Match with the metal of your watch. For example, if you choose a silver watch, opt for silver cufflinks.
- Ensure you coordinate with the wedding theme. This means sticking to the wedding’s colour and style theme, so choosing ultra-modern looking cufflinks for a traditional wedding may not be the best choice.
- Always make sure they fit your personal style. Our Deakin & Francis cufflinks come in a range of styles, such as these Speedboat Cufflinks, perfect for any boating enthusiast! These are available for just £213 from Banks Lyon.
Choosing the Perfect Earrings
If you’re wondering how to accessorise a wedding dress, earrings are a great place to start. They are the perfect way to bring in subtle elegance and complete your
overall look. Not only this but earrings draw attention to the bride’s face, the star of the show!
Because of this, it’s important to choose the perfect pair for your big day; luckily, we can help. When you visit the Banks Lyon showrooms in Lancaster or Kendal, our experienced and professional staff can help you choose the earrings to complement your look on your big day. For example, these 18ct White Gold 0.97ct Diamond Set Long Drop Earrings may be the perfect pair for you. Alternatively, you may prefer something else; just let us know your requirements upon arrival, and we will do our best to assist.
Which Wedding Band is Right for You?
Finally, the most important puzzle piece of your wedding accessories, your ring. With so many different styles to choose from, you can be certain to find something that works with your theme and personal style that will look incredible for years to come.
Many people tend to choose diamond set wedding bands because they offer classic elegance and are certain not to go out of style due to the timelessness of diamonds.
Alternatively, this may not be everybody’s cup of tea, so opting for a bespoke ring design might be best. Our expert jewellers can conduct a thorough consultation where we will find out exactly what you’re looking for in order to provide you with your dream wedding band.
