October 2012 Weddings

The great jewelry debate! PIP

Ladies, I cannot for the life of me decide what jewerly to wear at the wedding! (SO much harder than picking a dress.) I know I'm only going to wear a necklace and earrings, but I'm totally torn: Pearls? Crystals? Both? Statement necklace? More elegant, demure?

Please take a look at me in the dress, and let me know your thoughts on the finalist jewelry options. FYI, the dress has a mix of white/pearly accents, as well as crystal. Also, I will be wearing a flower in my hair that closely matches the one on the waist, my hair will be in a low, loose-ish updo, and a long veil (ceremony only).

    I love option 2's necklace the most!!

    I'm having the same issue. I've already bought two sets of jewelry. I've decided I don't want to wear either. Now I'm in search of pearls to match my great grandmothers necklace. I don't know why jewelry is so hard lol.

    I absolutely LOVE the pearls! I think it would look fabulous with the detail on the dress without being overpowering and blingy. I like both pairs of earrrings, so I'm no help there!

    Let us know what you decide!

  • I vote option 1, but I'm partial to drop necklaces.  I like the combination of pearls/crystals.

  • I agree with PPs I think the pearls are so pretty!  Always a timeless piece!

  • I like both #3's. They are all beautiful though, and you cant make a bad choice!

  • i like option 2 as a necklace but maybe just simple pearl studs worn with it.
  • I like option 2.  Nothing says classic bride like pearls!

  • i love option 1!
  • Option 1. With the amount of "space you have to fill between your neck and the dress I think the drop necklace would be the best :)
  • I like option 1 the most, hands down!
  • Option 2 is gorgeous! You really can't go wrong, as a bride, wearing pearls. And that selection is really stunning but still classic.

  • I really like them all but option #3 is my favorite.

  • My favorite is option 1. Like pp said there is a big space to the neckline of the dress and that would fill it perfectly! And its just a little bling not over the top!

  • I love option 3. I think it's the perfect blend of both 1 and 2 for your dress.

    You look gorgeous by the way!

  • I like option 1.  It seems to go w/the details on your dress well.  I had some trouble too but found a drop necklace that I liked and I'm wearing my diamond earrings.  Good luck!

  • Option 2 all the way!  Love, love, love it!  I agree with a previous poster about pearl studs as earrings.  I would have gone with pearls myself but my belt is too blingy so I had to settle with bling + pearl Smile

  • For your dress, which looks incredible on you btw!!, i would choose option #1. It's delicate and bridal and fits the accents on your dress and the ballgown shape perfectly!

    #2 is gorgeous but the style doesn't for that dress. I love #3, but it looks a little too heavy and modern for your bridal gown.

    Ps where is #3 from? I'm looking for something modern myself. ;)
