Amazing!! I love both the dress and hairstyle choice. If I were you I would go for a simple pair of drop earrings, maybe a 2-inch drop at most. You have a lot of tattoos so I probably wouldn't do a necklace unless it was very subtle. I'm not sure if that hairstyle needs a hairpiece, but a jewelled comb on one side could add a glamorous touch.

I say no necklace because of your collarbone tattoos. I agree with PP about drop down earrings, and I personally think a birdcage veil would look really pretty with that dress and hairstyle. If you really don't want a veil though, maybe a flower or feather.

Pretty dress!  It looks fab on you.

I say no necklace.  I always prefer a sparkly headpiece or hair comb over any type of necklace.  I just feel a necklace distracts people from your face and the pretty neckline of the dress.

I would wear a pair of either stud or small drop earrings and then a simple bracelet.  Let the dress, hairstyle and makeup speak for themselves, so simple jewelry is always best.

I agree with two pp, skip necklace, it will compete too much with your tattoos. Drop earrings would look great and if you want a braclet (but I would wear on your arm without the tattoos so again the jewelry won't compete with the tattoos). If you don't want to do a birdcage I think a nice blinged out hair clip would look nice, you can put it on the side towards the back. Or if you aren't into the big pieces, a few small randomly placed bobby pins with a rhinestone on them would probably look good too.

I'm a big fan of statement earrings and a bracelet with an updo. No necklace. For the hair piece, you can get a pretty jeweled comb or clip and stick it on the side of your hair, toward the back.

I'd skip the necklace since your tattoos are something of an accessory in themselves. As PPs suggested, some drop earrings would be lovely. I'd go for a hair comb on one side, as well.

I don't know why she DDed.  It was a rather tame post of her in her dress and she was asking about accessories to wear with it.  She had a lot of tattoo work on her collar and down her one arm, but no one was rude and there was no I HATE YOU ALL so yeah...

I'm confused also. There was nothing in this thread that would warrant a DD, not that I think DDs are acceptable anyway. I saw the dress and thought it was pretty and I agreed with everyone about the accessories. I just didn't say anything. So weird.

What the hell?

I think this might have had something to do with deleting this particular thread, even though it was fairly tame.

Yea, sorry to be harsh but you posted a picture of your dress earlier and it didn't look very cheap. Yet you can't scrounge up $300 for people who are FLYING there to see you?! $20 a plate plus $5 tax and tip times 12 people is $300. That's really f-ed up. If you were having a wedding at home wearing a sundress I would give you "we're poor" sympathy but clearly you have the money and just chose to spend it on yourself instead.

Ouch. We should never ever call out someone's financial status. She could have gotten a great deal.

jenna8984

Yay I guess I got meanie of the day.

She may well have gotten a great deal on the dress, hell someone may have given it to her for free for all I know. But that doesn't excuse having people pay for flights and hotel to see your wedding and then stiffing them on $25 dinner. That's not right.

lkristenj

@jenna8984 - I'm sorry. I wasn't trying to call you out. I was just hoping to offer an explanation of why this supportive thread was deleted.

I don't think it's acceptable to choose to not host your guests (whether they were invited or not - you know they're coming for you) regardless of financial situation. As is stated all over these boards, once you have guests it's no longer about you and you must be a proper host.

i read the other thread so so rude. for me a plane ticket to Vegas would require me to travel 2 hours to Boston by train. we have a fairly large airport where i live in ct but tickets to Vegas are always a better deal out of Boston. so that's airfare for two people round trip plus round trip train tickets to Boston, hotel for the both of us some spending money not a lot because hey we need to get ourselves there plus a new outfit for both of us and then you want us to pay for dinner.

if i was her guest i would decline and tell her hey im sorry but i cant afford your wedding you want me to foot the bill for everything i understand airfare train and hotel and clothes would be on us regardless but i should not have to pay for a dinner that your hosting.

300 for dinner for 12 is nothing or you could find a place do cake or heavy appetizers someplace vegas is full of places i have been there and you can find good food for cheep eats

Oh for cryin' out loud.  You think we're not nice because we're not validating her shitty, rude idea?

Sorry, but this just makes me want to go over to the Vegas board.

Me, too!  Oooh, is it a speshyl club?  Do they have initiation rites?

alicialfisher

Fair point  

hyechica81

since we are not from vegas we should stay out? threads are for anyone hey she came on her and asked our opinions. she needs a way to feed everyone it could be heavy apps she could find a place that has a  special  2 meals at this price vegas is full of dinner specials.


im sorry but i would not go to a wedding where i had to foot my dinner bill thats rude

lookame3639

The OP dirty deleted 2 threads which she asked for opinions, she did it after she was told what she was doing is considered rude. FWIW when I responded to her I only stated how I was cutting my budget in order to host my guests. I am having a tiny destination wedding where our guests are paying for gas and driving about an hour and a half away. I would feel pretty crappy making them pay for dinner as well.

Sorry.  I didn't see your board monitor badge.  These posters are "not nice", but you dictating where posters can comment on a public forum IS nice??  

alicialfisher

Y'all are too funny! Thanks for that best wishes on your big days!

Stay out of the Vegas board...and while we're at it, just get off The Knot ENTIRELY, amirite?!!  o.O

Stuff like this is what makes me laugh.  Last time I checked, all of the forums were open for anyone to go ANYWHERE to offer helpful (and sometimes shitty) advice.

Side note - what's DD'd mean?
