Jewelry Ideas for Your Bridal Party!

It’s that time of year to begin thinking about accessorizing the ladies in your bridal party and giving them gifts to thank them for being a part of your special day!

Check out the beautiful gold jewelry I came across on ShopNBC.

I love unique pieces like this gold hammered and diamond cut ricami reconstituted turquoise ring below to give as thank you gifts.

14K Gold Hammered & Diamond Cut Ricami Reconstituted Turquoise RIng, $118.62

Classics like these white cultured akoya pearl stud earrings or this lavender cultured freshwater pearl bracelet make great gifts as well and to wear on the wedding day too.

14K White or Yellow Gold AAA Quality 6.5-7.0mm White Cultured Akoya Pearl Stud Earrings, $148.63

14K White or Yellow Gold AAA Quality 6.5-7.0mm White Cultured Akoya Pearl Stud Earrings, $148.63

6.5-8 AAA Quality 7-8mm Lavender Cultured Freshwater Pearl Bracelet, $152.73

6.5"-8" AAA Quality 7-8mm Lavender Cultured Freshwater Pearl Bracelet, $152.73

Looking for ideas to send your significant other?  Well, sometimes it’s fun to splurge a little bit. If you want to be indulged, let him know. Give him ideas, like a spa day, a nice massage, or even some more jewelry. You’re the bride so you get to be spoiled as much as you like! My wish list includes this diamond multi-circle pendant and these akoya pearl and diamond drop earrings!

14K Gold Diamond Multi-Circle Pendant w/ Chain, $1,425

14K Gold Diamond Multi-Circle Pendant w/ Chain, $1,425

14K White Gold AAA Quality 7.5-8.0mm Cultured Akoya Pearl & Diamond Drop Earrings, $593.48

14K White Gold AAA Quality 7.5-8.0mm Cultured Akoya Pearl & Diamond Drop Earrings, $593.48

One of the best things about ShopNBC is that you can use the ValuePay option as a sort of payment plan to purchase your gifts! Remember that wherever you choose to shop, whether it be at a Bloomies or Tiffany’s or online at ShopNBC, you must keep your eyes open for large selections. You never know what you may find! Happy shopping!
