Your Wedding Jewellery Timeline: What to Buy and When 

Your Wedding Jewellery Timeline: What to Buy and When 

You’ve booked the venue, found the dress, and the countdown is on. But what about the jewellery? There’s so much to remember in the run up to a wedding, so here’s your stress-free timeline for choosing wedding rings, earrings, gifts, and last-minute sparkle, so nothing slips through the cracks. 

6–9 Months Before the Wedding: Rings First 

Start early, especially if you’re going bespoke or want time for resizing. 

Checklist: 

• Finalise wedding bands (his and hers) 
• Try them on with your engagement ring 
• Order early to allow for personalisation or delays 

3–5 Months Before: Bridal Jewellery Planning 

Now’s the time to choose your accessories based on your dress, hairstyle, and overall theme. 

Think about: 

• Earrings (studs for updos, drops for down styles) 
• Necklace (if your neckline needs one) 
• Bracelet or cuff (especially for sleeveless looks) 

2–3 Months Before: Gifts for Your Wedding Party 

Whether it’s a thank-you or a keepsake, jewellery gifts are a popular choice. 

Ideas include: 

• Matching bracelets or earrings for bridesmaids 
• Engraved cufflinks or necklaces for groomsmen 
• Mother-of-the-bride jewellery 
• Flower girl keepsakes 

1 Month Before: Final Try-Ons and Adjustments 

Double-check everything fits, shines, and suits your look. 

To do: 

• Try all jewellery on with your dress 
• Clean rings professionally or with a polishing cloth 
• Confirm you have all your gifts and accessories ready 

1 Week Before: Emergency Sparkle Check 

You’re almost there — now’s the time to pack your day-of jewellery and do a final check. 

Pack: 

• Wedding and engagement rings 
• All your bridal jewellery 
• Polishing cloth (for touch-ups) 
• Back-up earrings or fastenings, just in case
