Old Wedding Jewelry for a New Bride


Bridal Jewelry Choices

Is your daughter, granddaughter, or a close family friend getting married and you would like to share your wedding jewelry with them?Wearing someone else’s beautiful wedding jewelry is a gift that just about every bride would love to experience.Sharing the wedding jewelry that you wore on your wedding day is a big decision and should be given a lot of time to consider.

Your wedding jewelry is likely very close to your heart but if you have a woman in your life that needs something old or something borrowed, you may want to share your jewelry.  If you have decided this is something you would like to do, you first need to determine if you would like to give them the jewelry or if you would rather just loan it to them.

Whether you lend your wedding jewelry to the bride or give it to her, you should also think of the right way to present it to her.A great idea would be to ask the bride to dinner and after you have eaten your mean present her with a beautiful box and tell her you have something very special to share with her.  In the box you may also want to place a note telling her that you love her and you are happy for her and you want to share some pieces that saw many years of happiness for you.

You may want to be surprised when the bride opens the box and sees your wedding jewelry at what her reaction is.  Many brides are shocked, others are disappointed, and others have very little reaction at all.The bride’s reaction may be overwhelming to you, so try not to take it too personally.After presenting the wedding jewelry to the new bride you may want to tell her she doesn’t have to wear it but she has it if she decides that she wants to.

Sharing your jewelry is a heartfelt gesture that not every bride will ever have the benefit of experiencing.Make sure she understands whther or not you are giving her the pieces of jewelry or that you are letting her borrow them.What a special feeling to have to see a brand new bride wear your old wedding jewelry and look beautiful in it.
