A gold wedding necklace brings warmth, luxury, and vintage elegance to your bridal look. The rich, warm tones of gold create a beautiful harmony with ivory, champagne, and cream wedding dresses, adding sophistication and timeless glamour to your special day. Whether you choose a delicate gold pendant, a pearl necklace with gold accents, or a statement gold chain, these pieces frame your face and complement your gown beautifully.
At Britten we handcraft gold bridal necklaces with meticulous attention to detail. Every piece is individually made in our Bath workshop using quality gold-plated components and the finest materials—from lustrous freshwater pearls to brilliant crystals. We understand that your wedding day jewellery should be as unique as you are, which is why we offer a range of gold necklace styles to suit every bride and every dress.
Whether you're planning an intimate garden ceremony, a grand church wedding, or a vintage-inspired celebration, our gold necklace collection offers styles that blend timeless elegance with contemporary design. From simple gold pendants to elaborate bridal gold necklaces with pearl and crystal details, we have the perfect piece to complement your gown and reflect your personal style.
Every gold wedding necklace is handmade in the Georgian city of Bath. Whether you want gold pearl necklaces, gold crystal designs, delicate chains, or statement pieces, we'll have the right gold necklace for you to match your dress and complete your bridal look.
Our collection includes a stunning range of gold wedding necklace styles to complement every dress and vision. From classic pearl necklaces with gold settings to sparkling crystal designs in warm gold tones, each piece is crafted with care. Our delicate gold chain necklaces add subtle elegance, while statement gold pendants create more of a focal point. For brides wanting a complete look, our gold bridal necklace and earring sets coordinate beautifully.
Gold necklaces pair particularly well with warmer dress tones. If your wedding dress is ivory, champagne, cream, or has gold embellishments or beading, a gold bridal necklace creates a harmonious, cohesive look. Gold also complements warmer skin tones beautifully and adds a luxurious, vintage feel to traditional wedding styles.
Our gold pearl necklaces feature genuine freshwater pearls in various shades—from bright white to soft ivory and champagne tones—set in gold-plated findings that allow you to perfectly match your dress. Gold crystal designs offer brilliant sparkle with warm undertones, while mixed pearl and crystal styles in gold settings combine the best of both worlds for a luxurious bridal look.
Choosing a gold bridal necklace comes down to three key considerations: your dress tone, your other jewellery, and your neckline. Gold necklaces work best with warm-toned dresses—if your gown has yellow or cream undertones rather than bright white, gold is likely your ideal metal choice. Check your dress in natural light to see its true tone.
Consider your engagement ring and other jewellery too. If your engagement ring is yellow gold or rose gold, a gold wedding necklace creates a coordinated, polished look. Mixing metals can look intentional and stylish, but matching your necklace to your ring metal ensures classic elegance. If you're wearing gold earrings, a gold necklace completes the set beautifully.
Your neckline is equally important. Strapless and sweetheart necklines pair beautifully with gold pendant necklaces or pearl strands with gold clasps that fill the décolletage. V-necklines work well with shorter gold necklaces that follow the neckline shape. High necklines and halter styles often look best without a necklace—let statement gold earrings take centre stage instead.
Gold bridal necklaces are particularly popular for autumn and winter weddings, where the warm metal tones complement the seasonal colour palette. They're also a beautiful choice for vintage-inspired weddings, art deco themes, and celebrations with warm, romantic styling throughout.
Every handmade gold wedding necklace in our collection is individually crafted in our workshop just outside Bath, using materials chosen for their quality and beauty. We work with genuine freshwater pearls, premium crystals, and quality gold-plated components that maintain their finish beautifully. Our gold pearl necklaces feature pearls with excellent lustre and minimal surface imperfections, hand-selected for each piece to ensure consistency.
Sarah personally oversees quality control for every gold necklace, checking clasps, chains, and finishes before they're packaged. This hands-on approach to creating quality gold bridal necklaces means you receive something truly special—not mass-produced, but made with care specifically for your wedding day. All our gold necklaces come with secure clasps and quality chains, chosen for both elegance and durability.
Gold wedding necklaces should enhance your natural beauty without overwhelming your look. A helpful rule: if you're wearing statement gold earrings, choose a simpler gold necklace or skip it entirely. If your earrings are delicate gold studs or small drops, your necklace can be more elaborate—this is when gold pendant styles or layered gold looks really shine.
Gold pearl necklaces bring timeless, classic elegance and work beautifully with traditional and vintage-inspired gowns. Gold crystal necklaces add glamorous sparkle with warm undertones and photograph beautifully, catching the light in every image. Consider trying your chosen gold necklace with your dress and hairstyle during your final fittings to ensure the gold tone complements your overall look.
For a complete gold bridal jewellery look, coordinate your necklace with gold wedding earrings and a gold bridal bracelet. Matching the metal finish across all your pieces creates a polished, cohesive aesthetic that photographs beautifully.
