So what about something like this for my earrings and necklace?
Then that''s it... I am stuck.. I have been looking at jewelry for 8 months.. anbd can''t seem to make up my mind!! It is horrible and I am feeling the stirrings of panic.... UGH!!!

I am not sure that I want to do pearls.. I need something with more.. Punch... I am afraid that my dress is too boring.

Is it that you want info on what would complement the flower girls dresses regarding jewelry? If so, how old are the girls? Simple and sweet is usually best in all frankness...maybe some small earrings--maybe faux pearls or rhinestones--and a simple necklace, if any, to finish their look. A little clear hair glitter and that''s it. Mine, it will be fine if you go very simple with accessories. Don''t panic...ok?

 

[DonaBella]

With regard to both BM dresses...simple small sparkly earrings of the same length and style would finish their looks as well. If their hair, makeup looks smooth and nice, a little bit of sparkly on the earlobes is great. I am not sure if you even need a necklace. That is entirely your call as the bride...I am confidant that you will choose well...

Hey Mine!

Don''t panic--you still have time.

I think the necklace/earring set you posted would be lovely with your dress & hair. Can you post a close-up photo of the detailing below the bust on your dress?

I agree w/ Deanna on the BMs--simple, sparkly earrings, simple necklace or no neckace. Maybe just earrings would be best?

 

[flopkins]

I like the set you posted... any chance of trying it on w/your gown? I think just pearls might be too little, I think you should jazz it up a bit w/the jewelry.

For the BM I think dangly earrings that are similar to yours would go really well! I like the dark pink(or is it red?)/light pink combo. Looks purty!

For my FG I just did a necklace and a bracelet - she didn''t have pierced ears...

 

[MINE!!]

My FG are my daughters... they are 7 and 10. They both have pierced ears...So you think for the BM... all I need qre some dangly earrings? What about for the little onse.. I am not sure that I should mix the pearls will the crystal.. uknow?

Yes...some dangly ones that mimic yours might be nice. I think some little sparklies for the girls is appropriate as well, but not dangly. I would have the earrings between the FG and the BMs kind of mimic each other if they don''t mimic yours. It would be nice of course to have all of the earrings sort of be of a similar sort, but its not essential. Quite honestly, YOU will what everyone is looking at and the other ladies will be surrounding you to emphasize you...Just my thoughts...Again, I cannot wait to see what you finally decide becuz I am sure it will be amazing!

My dress was similar to yours in style and I wore a 17inch very sparkly CZ necklace to jazz up the look - I would definitely pair a sparkly necklace and earrings with your dress!!

 

[MINE!!]

Thanks so much DB~ I think it will be hard to find earrings that will match close to the ones that I am getting... But if I try to Match up the BM and FG I think it will go together better.

Firegoddess.. Happen to have an pictures of that dress? WOuld love to see it!!!


Bspot.. Trying really hard not panic...LOL...

San diego Lady!! Thanks and I think that I am a little jealous of your wedding sailboat ''cruise''!!!

Flopkins~ I tried this set on when I had my hair done and I really ereally loved it. I should just quit second guessing myself and just do it!! Also... kudos for your post in the unique wedding section.

 

[FireGoddess]

These are pics of my dress from the catalog - it''s not me.

 

[FireGoddess]

More detail from catalog.
Very similar to yours, no? I did a similar look with the necklace, but rhinestone encrusted and maybe about 2 inches longer than the model. Also had dangly rhinestone earrings, but my hair was curly and very long so it wasn't overdone.

 

[qtiekiki]

I like the set you posted with your dress. It''s very Renaissance/Victorian Royalty-like. I think your BM can either do dangly earrings or small dangle earrings and simple necklace. Nothing overpowering. For the FG, do simple earrings, necklaces and bracelets - I am sure the girls would love dressing up.

 

[MINE!!]

OMG!! Thats is the exact same dress! Mine is ivory though...

Do you think my hair is going to look alright with the dress?

QTek~ My oldest is NOT happy about dressing up.. She is more unhappy cause the dress is Pink....LOL But my little one is estatic!

 

[flopkins]

Mine- I think if you tried on that set and liked it you should go for it. Esp since you sounded a bit stressed about the whole thing in the first post - I find that sometimes w/wedding stuff I tend to overthink things and it''s just easier if I just make a decision - any decision!! hehe.

About the FG - what about taking your daughters shopping w/you to Macy''s or Sears or something? If they like that sort of thing... I dunnos, I think if my mom had taken me out shopping to pick out some jewelry when I was around that age, 7-10, I''d be ecstatic... but then, not every girl will be like that... hehe, I guess there''s a reason I ended up on PS~!

For things like jewelry I don''t think it''s so important to be all ''matchy-matchy'' - I mean, it''s nice if you can find coordinating stuff for everyone but I wouldn''t sweat it!

oh, and thanks for the kudos..

I think that dress needs a touch of orange...
