<div align=justify>Girls just love weddings.  They consider it as one of the most important days of their lives.  Some of them even start thinking about their dream weddings when they are old enough to know what a wedding is all about.  Among the girls all over the world, it must be the Indian girls who love to associate Indian bridal jewelry with their wedding daydreams.  This is because in India, the jewelry is an essential part of any woman's wedding day.  The Indian tradition calls for brides to be decked with Indian bridal jewelry from head to toe.  All the pieces of jewelry would have to complement each other as well as the outfit that the Indian bride is wearing.

Indian bridal jewelry does not have to mean the ones that are worn during the wedding day only but also on the engagement party that an Indian bride-to-be might be having before her big day.  The Indian bridal jewelry would have to include earrings, nose rings, necklaces, bracelets or bangles as well as anklets and other possible adornments of the body that could be made with precious stones.  These jewelries could be made of the most precious gems like diamonds, rubies, sapphires and emeralds among others, set in gold, silver or platinum.  Whatever the type of Indian bridal jewelry, brides would want them to fit the colors of the outfit that she will be wearing on both her engagement and her wedding day.

It is expected though that the Indian bridal jewelry that will be worn on a bride-to-be's engagement party would be different than the ones that will adorn her body on her wedding day.  During the engagement party, the jewelry would have to be less heavy and simpler in design.  It is not uncommon for Indian brides to have their Indian bridal jewelry for both their engagement and wedding dates to be designed specifically for them.  This is especially true for those who are rich and extravagant in their tastes of jewelry.

They would have different sets of Indian bridal jewelry for both occasions custom-designed preferably by known jewelry designers.  For the engagement, it is accepted that the bride-to-be will wear just a one piece of jewelry like an elaborately designed necklace embedded with precious stones.  In other times though this piece of Indian bridal jewelry would be complemented with earrings that are simply designed but is equally opulent in terms of the appliquéd stones as well as with a bracelet of the same design or precious stone embellishments.

On the wedding date itself, the bride would wear the heavy Indian bridal jewelry that she had made.  These Indian bridal jewelry generally consists of the Maangtika or that piece of Indian bridal jewelry that most if not all Indian brides wear on their heads, the necklace, the nose ring, the earrings, the waistband, the anklets and the rings for the toes as well as the bangles worn on the arm.

The Maangtika is generally designed for the bride herself and will go well with the other jewelry that will adorn her body.  The other pieces of jewelry that make the entire Indian bridal jewelry are designed according to the colors of the wedding trousseau. While it is okay to be understated when it comes to the colors of the precious gems embedded in the Indian bridal jewelry, Indian brides most often than not go for eye-catching pieces that are bold in colors.  For the Indian bride, the most opulent the Indian bridal jewelry is, the better.
