Best groom accessories to elevate your wedding-day look

Grooms, it’s time to master your accessories game. Brides Today brings you the most noteworthy styles and jewellery brands you can invest in for your D-day.

Cuff ’em up

Cufflinks boast a rich history, dating back to the 17th century when men wore them as a symbol of status and wealth. Considered a versatile accessory, these small yet eye-catching ornaments infuse style and personality into a man’s attire. “Modern and sophisticated cufflinks featuring minimal detailing add a contemporary edge to a look,” says Rohan Narang, Director of Hazoorilal Legacy. “Additionally, statement brooches that are intricately crafted with studded animal motifs and other striking details can perfectly complete a groom’s traditional ensemble with a modern touch.”

Put a ring on it

A universal symbol of love, a wedding band is the ultimate promise of commitment. Modern grooms today opt for wedding bands that reflect their personal style, with the focus on sleek and sophisticated designs. While traditional diamond and gold bands remain popular, trendier grooms like to make a statement with rings featuring large, colourful stones in platinum and white gold, says Nitin Goenka, CEO and Chief Designer at Goenka India.

Go big, go bold 

Bold jewellery is undoubtedly taking center stage in groomswear. Master couturier and jewellery designer Manish Malhotra agrees. “Grooms are becoming confident in experimenting with their style,” he says. “They are leaning towards larger statement pieces such as themed brooches and collar pins that are not only striking accessories but also standout pieces, with their own unique style and individuality”.
