    First of all, here is my dress:

    jewelry opinions please!! :  wedding Maggie3

     

    It has little pearl-like beads in the embroidered flowers, so I really want pearls. Here is the necklace I'm considering:

    With either these:

    jewelry opinions please!! :  wedding 40120

    or these:

    jewelry opinions please!! :  wedding P12084881

     

    And I really LOVE these, but I think they would be too much with that necklace:

    jewelry opinions please!! :  wedding 37882

     

    The bonus is that the necklace and 2 of the 3 earrings (not the drop ones) are available through the animal rescue site. <3 My only concern is that the necklace may be a little overwhelming.

    What does everyone think of the necklace, and which earrings???

    I think the necklace would look great with the 2nd set of earrings. Love how it starts with the cluster of pearls and then has the subtle drop.

    Something to consider: Are the pearls on your dress white or ivory? If they're white you need a pearls that are white. If ivory you need ivory pears. I think it would look nice with earrings and a necklace. 

    Also are you going to wear a veil, tiara and veil or flower in your hair?

    The dress is "diamond white" which is a very subtle ivory. (I didn't even realize it wasn't WHITE when I tried it on.) The necklace is white but one of the reviews said it picked up the ivory of an ivory wedding dress well. The pearls on the dress are VERY small. I don't expect to find a necklace that matches them perfectly and I think that'll still be ok.

    If it clashes horribly, I can always return the necklace and start over. I just wanted everyone's opinion on the style of the necklace in general and whether that style would look good with the dress.

    I'm wearing my hair in a french twist with flowers in it to match the flowers in my bouquet. I'm going for simple but elegant. I guess I should mention it's going to be a relatively informal outdoor wedding. (FI is wearing a black suit and dress shirt, no tie.)
