HELP - Wedding Day Present for My Bride

[stujin]

Since you all have always been such a huge help for me during my engagement ring buying experience and purchase of wedding band...I thought I would reach out to you all one more time to get your thoughts on a wedding day present for my bride. I am not looking to spend a lot of money on the present...but want something that is sentimental (like a locket, etc.). She is only wearing Tacori bridal jewelry for the big day which I have already purchased for her...she is wearing the white Keshi pearl earrings and bracelet. So the surprise is already out on those....since she wanted to be involved in that purchase. Here is a link to those:

Any ideas on what would be a nice piece she could wear on the wedding day and keep forever. She doesn''t want another ring since she is wearing her engagement ring, wedding band, and a sentimental ring that I had made into a band from a loved one that she lost. She doesn''t want to wear a locket on the wedding day since she doesn''t want to wear a necklace with her dress. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!!

Hmmm, well she''s got earings, rings, bracelets. You''re running out of room here! The only space left is a necklace, anklet and toe ring

Would she like a diamond pendant necklace or a pearl necklace? Maybe a diamond toe ring like Mara''s!

Does she already have her "something blue"? If not, you might want to consider getting her a brooch, necklace, etc. with blue stones. Or, you can get a white topaz (or blue stone) bracelet to wear on her other arm (I wore two bracelets because one was my "something borrowed").

Hope this helps to at least get you thinking!

One other idea. I had a friend who changed her earrings between the wedding and the reception because she changed her hairstyle (she went from wearing it down at the ceremony with pearls to wearing it up with diamond drops). Maybe your girl would like doing the same!

Does it HAVE to be for the wedding day? She seems as decorated as she wants to be already... beautiful Tacori pieces, by the way. If you want to give her a locket, maybe have her pin it inside her dress so it''s with her, but not visible. Of course, you can also give her something to wear the next day... there is all this emphasis on being a "bride" and so little on being a "wife"... no wonder women get depressed when the "day" is over. You could say something like, "you are the most beautiful bride I''ve ever seen, but having you as my wife is even more important...." or something like that.

aww sumbride that sounds like the perfect thing he could say!

that''s a neat idea to give her something to get to wear after the wedding. i like the locket idea too.

Ya I really like the locket too. It seems so sentimental. I''d like an antique locket, those are beautiful. It may not be something I''d wear everyday, I don''t know though, I''ve never had one! But it would definitely have great memories behind it, and in it

hehe

Oh Researcher I like the ''something blue'' idea too. A blue topaz brooch would be neat, if she likes a brooch!
