Wedding Jewelry Trends Incorporate Beautiful Brooches

Photo ©EraGem Thanks to First Lady, Michelle Obama, as well as the ever-popular British Royals, Queen Elizabeth II and Kate Middleton, the brooch has come to stay. A beautiful brooch can add a certain flair, while at the same time establishing a classic elegance to any ensemble. This truth has finally asserted itself into wedding jewelry trends, and we can't be more thrilled. Brides are using brooches to upstyle their shoes, their hair, their bustles, their veils, and more. They're even replacing the flowers in their bouquets with the most exquisite arrangements of vintage brooches. We have seen gorgeous pins embellishing invitations, pinned to the groom in lieu of a boutonniere, and even affixed to the fondant on the edge of wedding cakes. Many of these beauties are handed down or borrowed from family members, and these are the ones we would expect a bride to wear on her bustle, or in her hair, or filling out her bouquet. Still others are sourced from vintage shops, thrift stores, or flea markets, and it makes sense to use these rhinestone brooches to add a flourish to your invitations, to the cake, or to your table decorations. Perhaps, though, you would like to embellish your dress with a finer piece of authentic antique jewelry. That's where we can help! Here we offer a sampling of some of our most beautiful brooches featuring authentic gemstones and diamonds. These you might want to wear on your veil, or pin it to your groom's lapel, or you may want your bouquet's centerpiece to become a family heirloom to pass on to your daughter or granddaughter one day. Here we offer several of our most beautiful brooches which will add more than a touch of sophisticated elegance to your wedding day:      This gorgeous antique Art Deco bar pin brooch would make a perfect accent for your hair or headpiece.
