    Do they LIKE pearls? I mean, I grant you that pearls might be more useful than something in your wedding colors, but it really comes down to whether or not they'll like the gift.

    Well, I don't really wear jewelry, so I guess I'm not qualified to answer this question.

    I vote none of the above.  Get them something that suits their individual personalities.

    But there's a girl who posts on this board named Kristin789 and I think you two would get along swimmingly.

    Personally I have pearls already and don't normally wear necklaces.  However I wear earrings almost every single day.

    I would prefer earrings, but I don't think I would turn down a nice pearl necklace.

    I personally don't like pearls and if someone bought them for me, I wouldn't know what to do with them.

    Is that supposed to say pearl bracelet?  Because a pear bracelet would be interesting...

    Both of my BMs really liked their pearl necklaces, so I voted necklaces. But I also got them another, more personalized gift to go with the necklace.

    Necklace, but I'm biased. I don't have pierced ears and rarely wera bracelets because I think they look weird on me.

    I think the pearl necklaces would mess up your wedding photos....

    I voted for pear bracelet. I like pears.

    Do they have ear allergies?  My sister can only wear very specific kinds of earrings with a limited number of metals in them.

    I like pearls... enough that I already have 3 necklaces of white pearls (different sizes) and 2 necklaces of colored pearls. so I'd hate to get yet ANOTHER pearl necklace. of the 2 remaining choices, I'd prefer the pearl bracelet simply because I don't have one. and I think a set of 7 earrings is a little too... Claire's.

    I gotta ditto PPs that say to get them all jewelry that fits their individual tastes. that's what I did. every person got 2 pieces of coordinating jewelery, but none of it matched in color or style to what anyone else got. I truly tried to think of what each person dressed like and their jewelry style when i shopped for them. try that.

    This was a dumb question on WP. Still a dumb question on E. But you keep trying until you find a board that just answers the poll, no questions asked.
