My wedding band and engagement ring are both platinum, but I’m thinking about wearing gold jewelry for my wedding. Will that work?

You can absolutely mix metals on your wedding day. Your engagement ring and wedding band might be your most meaningful (and asked about) jewelry, but that doesn’t mean they have to stand alone or dictate your entire look. For a little fashion inspiration, let the color and details of your gown point you toward which baubles will work best for your wedding. Gold usually pairs beautifully with creamier ivory fabrics, while silver typically complements brighter whites.
