Wedding Jewlery

For the last several years I decided that I would wear a pearl necklace for my wedding. I have never owned pearls, but I think they are so classy and elegant.

However my wedding dress is quite busy on the neckline to have a full strand of pearls. The halter is just like the rest of the dress; covered in lace, pearls, and diamonds. So it would look bad to have a big necklace.

When I first tried the dress on I also tried on different necklaces for ideas. I am a jewelry person, so I definitely want to wear a necklace, but the more simple ones looked the best with my dress. And I really didn't want to wear costume jewelry.


Well my Mom found a jewelry set that she thought would be perfect...But she wanted to make sure I loved it before she bought it.

So she took me to go see them, and I loved them...So she bought them. But I will wait until August to get them. If she tries to give them to me for Christmas, I won't let her. :)


The set (which doesn't come together, but I am just calling it a 'set') is 14K White Gold, Freshwater pearls, and diamonds:




Necklace


Matching Earrings


So I would obviously wear those studs in my first earring holes...But I have a total of three holes in each ear. So do I not wear any earrings in my second and third holes?
And actually, I have the upper cartilage in my left ear pierced, I usually wear a heart-shaped diamond stud in it every day...But I can leave it out for the wedding if it will look better.

Speaking of ear piercings, Jon has a barbell in his cartilage...I haven't decided if I will ask him to take it out for the wedding or not.
Maybe we do the classier, less earring look for the Church Ceremony...And then wear whatever earrings we want during the reception?
I dunno yet.

Random Fun Wedding Stuff

And for the second time today, I just lost the wedding post I was writing and need to start over, yet again.

Basically, I was just posting some cute random wedding pictures to curb my wedding addiction for tonight.







I simply adore this picture!!
Those are my dream shoes...They have been for the past several years. I just love the ribbon and lace...And, well, just everything about them is so adorable!
Unfortunately, I have never been able to wear them because of my incredibly weak ankles. :(
So I have to wear flats (which I hate, since I am so short!) or thick heels that give my ankles better support.
So I just love that I found that someone used my dream pink stilettos for their wedding! :)






Yes, I admit that it is kinda tacky looking...And I don't think I am really digging the whole tree thing. BUT it is pink and has bling...So I figured, "Why not just post it?"



I kinda like that neat criss-cross thingy that's going on in the back at the bottom there.




And I guess that is about it for tonight's random wedding related photographs. :)
