I need opinions.

[charbie]

So I can count on the BWW ladies to tell me what they think- and I need to hear what you all think. Given that my BM''s always say "Oh yeah, that''s beautiful..." and my mom drives me crazy, I need some unbiased opinions for my wedding day jewelry. My wedding colors are burgundy, granny smith green, and tangerine. However, I''d like to wear simple pearl and aquamarine jewelry. My rationale is: not every single picture will involve my bouquet, i''m a march baby so I love my aqua, it can serve as my "something blue", and there is some very pale aqua out there so it will barely be noticeable. I''m not looking necessarily for genuine stones, so what I have pictured are some things I''ve found on etsy that I think might work.

First, my dress.

So- here''s my first option of earrings:

Second option:

And a 3rd pair:

the pearls in the 1st pair of earrings look like they match the necklace on model in the picture of the dress...
i love the earrings and aqua's faint color. i think they go awesome with the dress..
i vote the first pair of earrings

ETA - lol, i replied before you were done uploading, but i still say i love the 1st pair you uploaded. i love the cream pearls, and the color of the aqua... definately the 1st pair... you have necklaces too? [are you going to wear a necklace?

 

[charbie]

Last pair of earrings. Feel free to say, "Charbie, you are crazy, go with something else."

 

[charbie]

Here''s a necklace I was thinking of. I want it to be super simple, especially if I go with a longer pair of earrings.

Second pair of earrings

Or this:

Which, trish, I just realized that if I do the first earrings, they go very well with this necklace !

 

[Erinleigh]

I like the second and third pairs- I''m a huge fan of cluster pieces! Though I think the third ones might go best with the first necklace you posted?

 

[Dannielle]

I like the second necklace and the first pair of earrings, very simple and elegant

 

[princessplease]

I love the 2nd necklace and the 1st earrings the best.

My thoughts exactly.

 

[noelwr]

I think some of the pearls are too dark for the dress. I would go with the ones that match the dress white the best.

2nd earrings, 1st necklace!

 

[charbie]

See- I knew I could count on you girls! Thanks for the help!

So I''m thinking the first earrings and second necklace are a bit more timeless, the others now seem a little more trendy to me. The dress tends to look a lot more white in that picture, and you can''t see how "champagne" the top and bottom really are, which i think will match with the darker pearls much better than the white pearls.

i think i''m pulling the trigger on earrings #1 and necklace #2. either way, the earrings are $40, the necklace is $15, so if i get them and don''t like them at all, i''m not out a ton of money.

So- here''s my first option of earrings:

Pulled the trigger on earrings #1, necklace #2. Kind of felt like a big deal, tho cheap enough that if they are horrid, i can return them. Thanks for the input. I can''t wait to get them, and of course show the pictures.

 

[trishy]

YAY!!!! good choice!!! i really like the champagne colored pearls and the aqua...
BEAUTIFUL
