I've been so busy doing wedding stuff!! I have like 20 days to go! http://community.icompact.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_eek.gif

I still haven't decided on wedding jewelry yet. Any suggestions on what to wear with my gown?

Here's a pic of the front:

And the back:

I will be wearing a crystal tiara with my hair up and a fingertip length veil with an elbow length blusher (the veil piece that covers my face) and the veil will have pearls along the edges.

The veil is similar to this one I tried at the bridal shop.

And I haven't decided on my tiara yet but it's likely one of these:

<span class="ev_code_PURPLE">Hey Mini, wish I could help, but I'm also very clueless with my wedding accessories. But I still have 46 days to go http://community.icompact.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_razz.gif

I love your dress!! And I think the veil and tiara will work. I think keeping it simple is the key, so everyone will pay attention to you and the dress instead of the blings you have on you http://community.icompact.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_wink.gif It's just my opinion. Have fun finding the accessories.</span>

<span class="ev_code_BROWN">I love all your choices so far http://community.icompact.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

I think anything delicate would look nice..sorry I have no pics at the moment. I think if you keep it simple with a little 'bling' it will go very nicely.</span>

Thanks again! http://community.icompact.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

I will think simple. http://community.icompact.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

I also love my tiaras. So far everyone I showed them to liked the one that pamie and twinkles liked best. Although my future mother-in-law and my mom liked one of the other ones better and my Maid of honor too. I guess they are all good---at least I like them. lol! http://community.icompact.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

I'm going for my second hair trial Saturday so I can see how they will work with my hairstyle and veil.

Girls, if you are getting married, definitely check out e-bay for tiaras. All three that I got were about $30 and under including shipping. The one that pamie posted was like $12. Bridal shops will charge you $80 or more. Some are high as $200. Not worth it and the ones I got were just as good quality. Plus I got all three to decide on and it's still less than one from a bridal shop!

The gown is gorgeous. You are going to look so beautiful!

You won't need much in the way of accessories. I'd get a very simple, delicate necklace - I'm picturing a floating pendant (invisible chain, single "diamond" - if that makes sense). Maybe some simple stud earrings as well.

Good luck with your shopping! http://community.icompact.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Wow, the dress is gourgeous!
I also think you should keep things simple. I have no experience whatsoever with accesorizing (I NEVER EVER wear accesories), but maybe a delicate bracelet that matches the tiara (silver). I wouldn't wear anything on the neck. I think that a bare chest/shoulders with a strapless dress is just too good to ruin it with some necklace. http://community.icompact.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_razz.gif

I love that tiara that pamie posted. you should go with that one. Also, I love the look of pearls with a wedding gown, something like a invisible line one. I'm not sure what they are called, but it's pearls stationed on a fishing line and it looks like the pearls are just floating there.

I also love the look of a diamond stud earring and an invisible diamond like the one Stacey suggested.

Good Luck and Im sure you will be gorheous whatever you decide on.

I agree with Lu, a bracelet, the tiara and maybe some earrings but no necklace.

Your gown is beautiful. The back of it is breathtaking. It's so classic & timeless that you will be able to fondly look back at it 30 years from now and still admire it instead of saying, "what was I thinking?"

Best wishes for a long, happy marriage. http://community.icompact.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_wink.gif
