Direct answer

Choose bangles and rings that can be worn and removed comfortably, and have the fit checked rather than forcing a tight piece into place.

Try the actual item and its fastening before the event, including any stack of bangles worn together. Ask a jeweller which adjustments are suitable for that construction. Do not rely only on another brand's size label or a photograph of the hand. If jewellery becomes trapped, painful or causes swelling, seek appropriate help rather than repeatedly pulling or attempting a risky home removal.
