    Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should wear w/ my dress? I don't know what to do w/ my hair (other than it will be up) would a flower/veil combo work, a la Mrs. Powder Puff? Or a rinestone pin w/ a long veil? Or no veil at all? Ugh. Too many choices. Also, what style necklace/earrings would look best? Any thoughts/suggestions are welcome! Thank you SO much!

    I dont really know about the veil department, but as for a necklace or errings, I think simplicity is the way to go with this dress, it has so many beautiful things going on you dont want to take away from that

    How do you feel about pearl necklaces? I think a simple short strand will look beautiful hitting your collar bone. The neckline of your dress I feel will restict longer necklaces so something hitting that area would be great - or no necklace at all!

    ad for earrings, if you didnt do a necklace I think you could gte away with some fancy chandellier earrings that would look great!

    O the dress is so beautiful and the detail is so exquisite I don't think you need to do too much to accessorize here.

    You could wear a nice simple necklace, perhaps just a silver strand necklace with a small type of charm on it with very simple, clean matching earrings.  I really think all you need is a bit of sparkle here!  As for the hair/ veil question, I would carry through some of the organic details of the dress by pinning some flowers in a nice, goddessy curly updo or find a wonderful vintage clip to use. 

    I don't think you need a veil with this lovely dress!  No matter what, you will be beautiful on your day!

    I definitely think this dress needs a veil! It's so full and beautiful that it doesn't seem right without one. I would suggest one that drapes past the shoulders.

    I was going to suggest pearls as well since your dress has so many beautiful embellishments already. I love pearls - so simple and elegant. As for a veil, I think cathedral length would be too much and would take a lot away from how beautiful the train of your dress is. If you do a veil I'd go with the fingertip veil. I think my first vote would be for flowers in your hair. The detailing on your dress is so pretty that I think you should go for simplicity with your accessories.

    I'm loving the pearl necklace suggestion, with pearl stud earrings? Could I get away w/ a birdcage veil? Or is the dress "too much" for such a little veil?

    You ladies are the best! Sometimes you need to hear others opinions when it comes to some that's this important. Ya know?

    i'd go for drop earings and bracelet...no necklace. defonitely. and i agree with the others to go for a veil. not neccesarily cathedral, but i'd go long in length. and hair all the way up. how pretty!!

    I would go with earrings and a bracelet - and then you can do whatever you choose with your hair.  There's a lot going on in the neckline area, by the time you add an elegant hairdo and flower or veil, I think you'll have enough going on!
