Tin Cup Necklaces As Favorite Bridesmaid Gifts

wedding tin cup necklaces

Many brides struggle with finding the perfect bridesmaid gifts. After all, how do you sum up your gratitude and friendship in one present? The answer is with a gift that is not only perfect for your wedding, but that your bridesmaids can enjoy for years to come. For all these reasons and more, a tin cup necklace is one of the all-time favorite bridesmaid gifts.

For those who are not familiar with jewelry designs, a tin cup necklace is one which features floating pearls which are evenly spaced along a fine chain. The design is exquisite: both delicate and substantial. Not only is a tin cup necklace an ideal accessory to wear with a bridal gown or bridesmaid dress, it will find many uses in your daily wardrobe. In fact, the hardest part may be narrowing it down to one favorite version.

The most traditional tin cup necklace for bridesmaid gifts has medium sized pearls, usually around 6mm or so, which are spaced along a fine silver chain. The beauty of this for the bride is that when the pearls float rather than being strung continuously, the cost of the necklace is considerably lower. This is great news for brides who want to get their bridesmaids something really special, but never realized that pearl bridesmaid jewelry could be found within their budget.

Something else that brides love about tin cup necklaces for bridesmaid gifts is that they can be completely customized to fit the wedding style, colors, and budget. For instance, if you were hoping to economize a bit on your bridesmaid gifts, select necklaces which are created in lovely Swarovski pearls on a silver chain. Have a bit more of a splurge in mind? Then have your necklaces made with gold or gold filled chain and akoya pearls. Both are beautiful; it is simply a matter of personal preference.

Everyone knows that the most thoughtful gifts are the ones that can be personalized. A tin cup necklace can be custom ordered in different colors of pearls, as well as in a range of pearl diameters, chain lengths and colors. This is a real help when you have bridesmaids who have different builds. The little petite one might only ever wear necklaces which are 16 inches long or less, whereas the athletic bridesmaid needs a longer chain to sit comfortably on her more athletic frame. This is no problem with tin cup necklaces, since they can be made in the needed length for each attendant, and yet will look identical when they are worn.

By now, you may be thinking that while the style advantages of the tin cup necklace are myriad, you had just not planned on pearls for your bridesmaids. This is just fine, since you can also have your bridesmaid jewelry created from fabulous Swarovski crystals. A floating crystal necklace has all the elegance and grace of the original, but with an extra dash of glamor. They are perfect for evening weddings, or anytime you just want a little more drama for your bridesmaids. Whichever way you go, you will be confident in giving your attendants fabulous tin cup necklaces, because they are sure to be a hit with your bridesmaids!
