Wedding day accessories

What did you do or are you doing for wedding day accessories? Specifically jewelry and hair accessories. I am thinking of doing long chunky rhinetone earrings and a blingy bracelet and cathedral veil for the ceremony. For the reception I cannot decide between 1) rhinestone ribbon headband (no veil), small earrings, and same ceremony bracelet. or 2) three strand chunky pearl necklace, small pearl earrings, no veil, no bracelet.

    I haven't decided on the jewelry yet, but I know I am wearing a peacock feather hairpiece and an elbow length veil that has scattered rhinestones on it.

    I kept it simple:  chandelier earrings and a bracelet for both and I had a short veil so I kept it on for the reception.  I had planned to take it off but just never did.

    I would take your veil off and get a fun hair accessory but I wouldn't worry about changing everything else out.  Unless you have a gap, you won't have time anyway.

    I've got earrings, a pearl necklace, a pearl brooch bracelet, a vintage-y hair clip that kinda matches the brooch, a fingertip length veil for the ceremony and a hair flower for the reception.

    Haven't done my hair trial yet so I'm not 100% sure if I'm going to use the clip yet.

    I bought the earrings, looking for either a necklace or bracelet depending on how a necklace looks with the dress.  I'll wear the same jewelry for ceremony and reception.  I have a fingertip veil for the ceremony and then I plan to take off and have a hair flower for the reception.

    I have small drop crystal earrings, a crystal necklace (that I am debating if I am wearing...I may switch it to one my SIL wore at her wedding that is simpler), and a vintage broach in my hair with a cathedral length veil with crystals throughout.
    I will be changing my necklace when I change my dress at the reception to a semi-chunky purple and white pearl and tiny crystal necklace.

    See PIB for pics of everything....and let me know what you think about me changing my necklace for the ceremony to a more simple necklace.

    I'm keeping it simple, really just wanting to look classic on my wedding day rather than trendy.  I'm using a crystal hair piece (actually it's Stephie's), my fingertip length veil (which I'm taking off for the reception), and an aquamarine and diamond pendant necklace (which is also my something blue).

    I'm def. keeping mine simple! I am doing a hair price ivory flower with 3 pearls in the center - no veil. I am doing cluster pearl earrings, both of these were bought off etsy for super cheap! Then I'm doing a cluster of pearls ring in a gold setting, which i found in brides magazine and ordered off line for $30 and I think it will be my favorite piece!!!

    My necklace was my grandmother's diamond pendant.  I found some crystal earrings in the same sort of starburst shape from Overstock.com.  The front of my veil was very plain and looked unfinished so we splurged on a comb clip to put in front of it.  It looked so much better!!!  I didn't wear anything else other than my engagement ring, my Aggie ring and my charm bracelet.
