Things to Consider Before Choosing Groom Jewelry 

1. Take your time 

The usual norm is to invest time and research skills in finding the perfect wedding outfit. However, we believe with the wide range of types of jewelry available in the market, more time should be invested in finding the right piece of jewelry since it is going to cost more than the outfit. And researching the right piece doesn’t get any easier than it is in this digital world where in the comfort of your house you can access the catalogs at your fingertips.

2. Get the Jewelry First! 

Another common practice is to find the outfit first and then look for jewelry to match it. But, the correct way to go about it is to first decide on your jewelry and then find a wedding outfit to match it. It may sound very unconventional, but trust us you are going to thank us later. Wedding jewelry is going to be one of the most expensive items you are going to buy for your wedding, so why not buy something which can be used again for different occasions and not locked away after being used once in the wedding?

3. Stick to the Budget

With the ever-growing demand for groom wedding jewelry, a wide range of men’s jewelry is also now available in the market. Therefore, it is very easy to get carried away and splurge when surrounded by so many options. So we suggest you decide on an upper-limit budget and stick to it! Being in a jewelry store can feel like being a kid in a candy store. I mean who are we kidding, men love their jewelry too! So take our advice, and set the budget, so you don’t go overboard.

4. Evergreen is the answer

With the ever-changing trends, it is easy to get carried away and get enticed to buy contemporary designs. But let's not forget that jewelry is an asset and should be invested in wisely and what better than buying evergreen pieces that will never get “old-fashioned”?

5. Buy from trusted jewelers

It is always better to buy the jewelry from reputed jewelers and not some local jewelers as they are more reliable, and quality and authenticity will not be an issue. However, still, make sure to check the certifications of the jewelry, and don’t forget the bill!

6. Ditch the trends

Being open-minded is the key when it comes to wedding jewelry. There is no harm in following trends, but then following trends wouldn’t necessarily make you stand out. And we believe, like the bride the groom also deserves to have all the eyes on him. So go for something different, which will make you look unique and not one of the many others.

7.  Check the Clasp

When buying jewelry people usually check the certificate, design, etc. but forget one of the main things which is the clasp. The clasp is the most important part of a necklace which ensures its safety. So first things first, check the quality of the thread used, the hook, and the grip. Heavy duty is always the best!

8.   Know where your money is going

Since buying jewelry is no joke and can cost a bomb, it is a good idea to know where your money is going. Insist on all the details of the jewelry and ask for a breakup of the price.

9. Bargain!

It is a common belief that bargaining is only done in small local shops and flea markets. However, let us tell you a secret, you can bargain on the making charges. Yes, you read it right! So make sure you practice your bargaining skills or better take your mom along. Moms are the best bargainers after all!

10.  Know your style

With so many wedding jewelry styles in the market, you must recognize what’s your style. Like we said before also, ditch the trend and go for something that attracts you and not something others tell you looks good on you. After all, it’s your day and you have to wear it! Even if your style is offbeat, go for it! Because that is what will set you apart and have all the eyes on you!

Conclusion

The trend of groom jewelry is here to stay, and as we said, we at Pyaari Weddings are the biggest cheerleaders of this trend. The mindset that jewelry on men is only for rappers is not relevant anymore. There are numerous instances of B-Town grooms donning jewelry on their wedding day and let's agree that they looked as dapper as it gets. Grooms wearing jewelry on their wedding day are a total game changer and also add a royal quotient to their look. So dear grooms, get the jewelry on, it’s your time to steal the show!
