Here’s some help with which length necklace works best with your bridal gown's neckline. Please keep in mind that it’s not a hard and fast rule, you can get away with a lot depending on the look that you’re after.
This is an extremely versatile neckline. Keep the length under 19" so you don't crowd the neckline. Perfect choices are the collar, choker and princess necklace.
Sweetheart
A sweetheart neckline may or may not be strapless but the same rules apply when choosing a necklace. Perfect choices are the choker, princess and lariat necklace.
A low or wide halter allows for a necklace and perfect choices are the Y-drop necklace, short pendant necklace and lariat necklace. If the halter is high and narrow or comes to a point at your throat, rather go without a necklace and wear long, statement earrings instead.
Square
A necklace with a curving shape is a perfect way to soften the square lines of this neckline. Perfect choices are the choker and princess necklace.
V-Neck
A necklace that imitates the lines of the v-neck would be a great choice. A v-neck looks great with pearls, a single stone necklace or cluster necklace. Find a necklace that stays above the v-neck to keep all eyes up on the face. Perfect choices are a Y-drop, a short pendant necklace or lariat.
Scoop/Round
This is a versatile neckline and almost any style necklace will be flattering. Perfect choices are a choker, princess, Y-drop and short pendant necklace.
Backless or Open Back Dress:
Perfect for your big day if you're looking for a magical, dreamy necklace to complement your open back bridal gown.
More tips:
If you have a round face or short neck it's best to stay away from shorter necklaces. Long necklaces draw the eyes down and lengthens the body, making you look taller, slimmer and more elegant.
