Pearls with this Wedding dress? Pics!

[Londongirl1]

Hi, I''ve found my wedding dress but I had no intention of wearing pearls on my big day and always saw myself in diamonte. But.... I''m just wondering whether a pearl bridal set would look better with the dress??

Opinions please?

well, you should wear whatever makes you happy, but a pearl set would look very nice in my opinion. white pearls with a silver or rose overtone... yummy!

your dress is gorgeous btw

I think pearls would look amazing with your dress but I agree you should whatever makes you happy.

I just saw this picture from futurefashinista''s website of a bride wearing her pearl creations - dangle earrings, dangle necklace and a bracelet -- so elegant and pretty....

Ordinarily I''d agree with you

but I don''t want to look all lit up like a christmas tree with the tiara, bracelet, necklace, earrings.... so I''m thinking either diamonds or pearls. But what the heck, I''m only planning on doing this once so perhaps I should go all out?

Nah, not my style

Londongirl... I do agree with you...that less is more. Just have a simple diamond and pearl necklace and earrings which is what I was getting at in the first place. It will look elegant and not overstated at all!

Actually, if it were me, I''d skip pearls and do something more simple, like a diamond by the yard necklace(in any length).

maybe pearl tincups? http://www.thepearloutlet.com/tin-cup-pearl-necklaces.htm

a simple pendant? http://www.pearlparadise.com/All-Pearl-Pendants359.aspx

or dainty pearls? maybe 6-7mm?

just throwing out suggestions!!

 

[ckrickett]

I think pearls would look stellar!!

 

[Londongirl1]

Thanks for the suggestions - really appreciated

Forgive my ignornace but what is a 'diamond by the yard' necklace?

 

[makemepretty]

Diamonds by the yard are small bezeled diamonds spaced by a very thin chain. Simple but elegant.

I just went to a wedding where the bride wore a dress similar to yours and had a drop-shaped pearl pendant with matching earrings. It looked sooooo pretty! Not too much, but just enough to really catch the eye in a great way.

Can anyone point me to a link on PS that has pictures of brides wearing pearls?

Thanks

I love both of these pieces, just not sure I would wear both at the same time, but that''s just me!

I am in the camp of diamonds and pearls for a bride. Here is a pic of my BF's daughter on her wedding. I lend her my earring dangles and my necklace dangles as something borrowed.
