I’m just curious what people are doing as far as necklaces go!

The top of my gown is very detailed. I decided not to take away from it and just wear a bracelet and earings

I’m thinking no because my dress has a headily beaded boddice and I will be wearing statement earrings + a hair piece, so I’m afraid of overdoing it. That said, I haven’t seen my dress in 8 months so if I decide I need a necklace, I’d probably get something small and delicate so it doesn’t compete with my dress

No necklace for this bride; I have a lace jacket that goes over my gown and I felt that it would be too much and take away from the dress = )

I ended up not wearing a necklace. My dress had detailed lacey straps, I had a veil and a flower in my hair, a sparkly bracelet, and dangly earrings. I felt like a necklace was unnecessary and may have gotten caught on people’s shirts when I was hugging/dancing.

I’m wearing a double strand pearl necklace with mine. Somehow it just makes the whole look (with the birdcage) complete. But my dress is pretty tame – lace and rouching with no beading or sparkle at all.

No necklace. My dress is heavily beaded on the bodice so I felt a necklace would be “too much”

No I went for statement earrings and a bracelet. I love the idea of statement necklaces with dresses that have plain bodices but my dress had detail on the bodice so I skipped the necklace.

First Wedding (circa 1980) … a strand of pearls I inherited from my Maternal Gramma (LOVED that woman, and missed her, she had passed the year before). Went with my pearl stud earrings.
This time round… went with a single pearl drop. It matched my pearl drop earrings.
Pearls are a Wedding Classic… but so are Diamonds… or anything that sparkles… Rhinestones, Swarovski Crystals etc.
Altho there are certainly Brides who opt for more modern Statement pieces.
OR if you have a high neck dress… or one that has a lot of details on the bodice, then a Necklace isn’t always a necessity.
Hope this helps,
