    I am kind of stumped on which accessories to pair with this dress. I have been thinking about doing an accessory switch instead of a dress switch between the ceremony and reception and here is what I am thinking so far:

    Ceremony: simple ivory two tier veil, pearls from my mom, stud pearl earrings?

    Reception:  small ivory hair flower?, chandelier pearl earrings, no necklace?

    Does that sound okay?  Bah, I am clueless.

    I think that you can step up the jewelry game a little with some nice chandeliers with bling. Your dress doesn't seem to have alot of detailing on it, so it'd be fine.

    I agree with PrncssDva! You should def add some Bling!

    I think that is a great idea to change up accessories for your reception. What you have planned seems perfect, go with it!

    So I have been looking for the right pearl necklace to add interest, but not be too much.  What do you think of these options?

    I am just having a hard time finding something a necklace with pearls that is not too heavy looking.  I don't think I like the look of classic pearl necklaces with this dress because they look heavy and the dress is very light and flowy.

    I reallly really like the top one from 17!!

    To me, the middle one looks too big/too much

    The bottom one is pretty but it looks kinda heavy with the thick chain.
