Shoot!! I didn't realize I was posting this in photography, and now I can't figure out how to switch it. Sorry!
Well. . . . are you looking for real jewlery or is fake ok with you? I bought my jewlery at the Icing . . .it's a version of Claires. . . they have like prom jewlery and things. I bought a pearl and rhinestone drop necklace with earings for a whopping $18.00. So if you arent worried about real or fake. . The Icing is a great place to go
I bought all my accessories on Etsy. You may end up paying a little more since they are homemade but you are getting somethng original!

I am super cheap and on a really tight budget. Thus I have spent hours online searching for wedding acessories at a low price.
here are some things I have found:
Overstock.com & Amazon.com - They actually have some great jewlry at some amazing prices. I bought my peal necklace off amazon and was very happy with it
Diamondshark.com - They are a daily deal site and have a different thing every day. I have been following for about a month and have seen some GREAT stuff.
HSN & QVC - You can find a lot of deals in thier sites
Americanbridal.com
And don't forget about some of the other used sites like craigslist and bravobride.com
Hope this helps. Good luck!

I actually bought my jewelry from www.kohls.com , from their 1928 collection. It was less than $50 for the earrings and necklace combined:

And my bracelet was only $15, it was my something old, I got it from the vintage section on Etsy

I got mine and all my bridesmaids custom made from www.purelyelegant.etsy.com and it was very inexpensive! Less than $20 dollars for my bridesmaids and less than $40 for mine (I purchased several pieces for myself).
I bought my jewelry at a locally owned Jewelry Store. It's Tacori and love it! I think it's all about what you like. You can always pass it on when you have children.

hi. i'm selling a set my mother in law got for me but am not going to use. let me know if you're interested and give me an offer :) http://classifieds.weddingbee.com/topic/vera-wang-inspired-pearl-038-austrian-crystal-necklace-and-matching-earrings
I bought all of my jewelry (mainly pearls and crystals) at JCPenney's. The set (necklace, bracelet and earrings) were about $40 total! :) Their jewelry is always on sale, so it shouldn't be hard to find a similar deal!
I will be getting mine from Etsy, I just ordered some earrings from kalliART on Etsy and they're beautiful. There are so many beautiful choices on Etsy and sellers are so helpful, I would rather give them my money then spend it at a chain store.
My wife is in love with Tigerlilly jewelry. It's a little bit expensive, but their jewelry is custom made and they can even make you piece to match your wedding dress.
I bought my jewelery from Sorrelli (www.sorrelli.com). They have plenty in a bridal white but also some with color if you wish to go that route. I liked their customer service and it photographed beautifully.
Wow, thanks for all the great suggestions!

I would recommend going to bag borrow or steal.com. You;ll end up paying $100+ to rent something w/ diamonds- but hey, at least you're wearing real jewlery. There are also lower priced alternatives for just gemstone/gold.
I'm wearing a diamond solitare pendant on a silver chain, small drop earrings, and possibly a bracelet. The necklace is from a local jewelry shop, the earrings are from Nordstrom (by Nadri), and I haven't gotten the bracelet yet, but it will probably be from Etsy. There are lots of beautiful option on Etsy, if you're willing to comb through it all. Good luck!
I made my own wedding day jewelry, out of crystals and pearls actually. Here are some pictures. So many people commented on them that I decided to take my jewelry making love on the road - and now have my own Etsy site where I sell wedding and casual jewelry! Check it out -- I would be happy to help you create the wedding day jewelry you have always wanted - and at an affordable price! :)

I ended up getting mine from the store where I bought my BM dresses. however it WAS expensive and now kind of regret it after seeing such sites as Esty (which I never knew about until I found WeddingBee) so I highly recommend Esty.com so many different type of jewellery, and unique beautiful and AFFORDABLE prices!
Definitely check out Wedding Baubles Inc. I have purchased a lot of jewelry (bridesmaids, my own regular special event stuff) from them. Their stuff is reasonable and great quality.
I've attached a few pics of some of my recent purchases. Both of these items were less than $40 each.

I posted yesterday about Wedding Baubles adding a color collection. It looks like they uploaded their pieces today! It's amazing. The pink pave teardrop earrings (pic below) are my FAV!
Here's the link:

I happened upon my wedding day jewels at TJ MAXX. The one near me has a great jewelry section and often a great jewelry clearance section. I got a bangle (completely encrusted with pave set CZ's), a necklace, and earrings and I think I spent 75.00. Though I reached the top of my budget with these - I found EXACTLY what I wanted and decided it was worth it. I'll post pics soon.
I do NOT like Overstock for jewelry. With the exception of one pair of earrings, I've been disappointed by everything I've gotten from there. Things are never the size you think they are going to be - even when they give the measurements, I've found them to be inaccurate. I'm currently wearing a pair of earrings (and I'm not going to say what I paid for them because it's painful to think about) that I bought thinking they would be my wedding earrings - diamond & sapphire drop earrings. Sapphire is my birthstone, I wanted it to be my something blue.... yadda yadda yadda. So I'm SO excited when these earrings come and I open the box up and they are like the size of my pinky nail. I would NOT have bought them had I know the EXACT measurements, but the Overstock site made it appear as if they were a little less than an inch long. Don't get me wrong, they are beautiful earrings (as evidenced by the fact that I didn't return them), but the site was definitely misleading when it came to size. And this has happened with other things I've bought too.
Be warned.
www.megguess.com her jewelry is amazing! She can custom make things for you as well.. I had her combine elements from a few different pieces she had on display.
Cuff bracelets are one of my favorite things to make--there are so many things you can do with them. Here is a custom piece that I made for a UK bride who wore a purple dress. Her theme was purple, silver and stars: http://www.etsy.com/view_transaction.php?transaction_id=10093655
try mall accessory stores like claire's and icing. I have been looking at jewelry and I don't want to spent $50 for a pair of earings i'm going to wear one day and can get the same pair for $15 at one of these stores.

Alright... I just found my wedding bracelet in the weirdest place. I've been looking everywhere for a bracelet to go with my dress, and nothing seemed to work.
I scoured Etsy, went to department stores, checked Ebay and all the wedding jewelry sites... I bought 2 and returned them both.
Today, I went to my dress fitting and the seamstress also sells wedding jewelry. I found a beautiful bracelet that matches the dress wonderfully. It's simple, but with a little bit of sparkle... Of all things, it was Cookie Lee. I always thought that their stuff was kids jewelry, but this was wedding perfect. Best of all, it was only $30!

Where did you buy your bling for the big day? I am hoping not to spend a ton of money. I keep monitoring the classifieds and the Trash to Treasure Board on The Knot, but haven't found what I want. Other than White Aisle, I haven't found many internet sites that specialize in wedding-type stuff.
I'm looking for earrings and maybe a cuff bracelet with crystals. As always, I would appreciate your input. TIA!
