Can I wear a 3 strand pearl choker and chandelier earrings?  or jus tone or the other

It's hard to say without seeing pictures of the dress and jewelry, but it sounds like a bit much to me.

Ditto w/ PP.  I guess I'd say go with the earrings and if you really wantedt to wear a necklace, make it a simple one.

Is the dress plain or does it have a lot of embellishment.  When in doubt less is more.  Also, are you styling your hair simply or with a more intricate style?

I agree with PP, go with the earring and a simple necklace if you really want one.  Or wear the choker and choose very  simple earrings.

Maybe even do the chandelier earrings and have a single strand pearl necklace...

See, I always think pearls OR bling, and am not a fan of the two being mixed, unless you have a pearl bracelet/necklace with a rhinestone clasp, which can be a nice mix of the two. That sounds like a bit much, but do you have pics? Maybe you *can* work them both together!

I like the bling, personally! I say chandelier earrings and a simpler necklace.

It everything else is very simple, you might be able to pull off wearing both!

Exactly.  My philosophy has always been one statement piece is awesome, but two is too much.  You don't want your jewelry to be competing with each other, and you DEFINITELY don't want them to overpower the dress.

I particularly love the look of vintage pearl necklaces with rhinestone clasp/embellishment- might be the right combo for you- here are a few I love, hope this helps...
