A beautiful lehenga with the most fashion-forward blouse will end up creating a blunder if not paired with the correct bridal necklace. When it comes to choosing jewellery, brides usually focus more on the colour, stones and the material rather than the cut and the style of the necklace. To make sure that the various elements of your bridal attire complement each other, focusing on the style of the necklace is equally imperative.

These days, brides have so many options to choose from. From everyone’s favourite choker to the traditional rani haar, the choices are endless. If you are still confused about which kind of necklace you should wear at your wedding, here is your complete guide of different kinds of necklaces that you can wear.

It’s a metallic band that can be made in any material that you want. You can even add colourful stones like rubies and emeralds to it. A bridal choker is much wider as compared to the other chokers. It looks stunning on brides with longer necks.
