    I'm looking at earrings to buy for my wedding day look and wanted to get the hive's opinion. I've narrowed it down to these four.

    What do you think?

    ETA: The theme of my wedding is urban vintage and I'm also wearing a pearl necklace and Haute bride inspired pearl bracelet.

    My dress is being custom made so this is a photoshop version of it.

    Your dress already has a lot going on, so I would go with the simplest option -- #3.

    Also, maybe it's just me, but when I look at the swirly pattern of option #2, all I can see is a cursive capital letter C and maybe a treble clef at the bottom!

    I'm so surprised that no one likes #1 as that was actually my favorite followed by a tie for #3 and #4.

    My FI liked #1 the most as well, but he hasn't seen my dress, so he's just going off of what he likes.

    Love #3.  I think they compliment your gown the best!  2 & 4 don't seem to match the lace/pattern of your gown.  1 is nice, but they seem a bit too modern vs. elegant (like 3).

    I think number 3 is gorgeous, especially for an urban vintage wedding!

    @melisslp: I actually kind of like the modern aspect of it. I'm going for kind of an urban vintage and #1 kind of said "art deco" to me which would me a more modern look of vintage.

    I still would love to hear what people think though!!

    I remember your bracelet...it had pearls right? I think it would look best with #3, to keep from looking too busy.

    @YSQueen - I didn't realize what type of a feel you were going for.  I just based it on what I thought would mirror your gown the best.  Can you share with us the pics of your necklace and bracelet?

    Two and three seem to make the most sense with your dress and other accessories.  Are you getting these off of a website or at a store?

    Number 2 is my favorite!!

    Those are rare, and they are not the usual wedding earrings...

    And they are sparkly too!!

    I picked number 3 because they seem to match the shape of your gown the best

    @melisslp: I'm wearing a layered pearl necklace. Unfortunately, I don't have a pic of it yet. The below picture isn't my actual necklace but it looks like it.

    @sueanddemetrius: I actually got the pics off of Ebay. There are some sellers who sell some great looking jewelry.

    The more I think about it and consider the accessories I already have, I'm leaning towards #3.

    @Amaryllis: Haha! That stuck out to me too. For a minute, I thought the OP's new initial was a "C" so she was trying to keep that theme.

    (Was definitely reading too much into things!)

    I voted for #3 - just make sure the pearls of the necklace and the earrings blend well together. Great dress!

    Love the 1st one and the Art Deco feel. I really like the 3rd one too though.

    I vote for #4, very cool vintage look, I'm surprised more people didn't think so, but looks like you can't go wrong, I'm totally there with you, earrings has been my most difficult decision, the dress was easy!

    Thanks everyone for their suggestions!!!

    I ended up choosing #3 as it was more simple as I'll be wearing a pearl necklace and bracelet too.
