I’m trying to decide what necklace and earrings would look good with my dress. Here is the picture of it:

I’m also wondering if I should spend the money to get myself really nice jewelry for the wedding or not. Money is tight at the moment.
keep it nice and simple dont go overboard. you dont need to spent a lot to get nice jewelry. and by the way nice wedding dress have a happy and pretty wedding
It’s hard to tell from the pictures because there are none of the front view. What neckline does it have?
Honestly, my something old is my deceased mother’s pearl earrings and ring, so I am wearing those. My sister bought me my something new–a pearl necklace and bracelet.
If you have someone willing to buy your something new, give them a few suggestions for jewelry–not too extravagent unless they’ve let you know their budget.
Our budget for the wedding is also tight, tight, tight. I think if you’re going to wear the jewelry again and it’s something you’ll cherish, possibly pass down, then go for it and splurge on the real diamonds, real pearls, real gold. If you’re not a jewelry girl, then get something modest. I recommend still getting 14K gold so it matches your wedding band/engagement ring (if gold is what your rings are made out of).
Good luck!
I can’t see the front completely, but from what I can see I would say that the top is kind of busy, so I wouldn’t wear a necklace…just get a pair of nice, pearl or white gold earrings and a matching bracelet. It looks like a very pretty dress
congrats!
Thats wierd, I tried on that same dress when I was shopping for mine, I however decided it just wasn’t me and went with a shorter less complicated dress. I’m not sure what would really look good as far as jewelry, I would just try some different things, nothing major for a necklace, cause this dress has alot to it already. And as far as expensive jewelry for the wedding, if you can’t afford it, then don’t worry about. Their are lots of places you can buy inexpensive jewelry that would probably be prettier than what you could try and afford to buy , as far as really real expensive stuff. My necklace is a sterling silver journey necklace my fiance bought me for valentines day. (And yes I’m a silver girl, it’s just what I prefer), and I’m not sure on earrings yet. Good luck
Hello there =]
What a beautiful gown! In my opinion, pearls with a tear-drop shaped pearl pendant would be gorgeous. Something like this set:

I’m not sure if they’re genuine or not (I’m thinking not), but they’re definitely eye-catching.
Another idea would be something simple in silver with sparkle, which could be cost-efficent if that “sparkle” isn’t genuine or a less valued gem.
The kind of jewelery you get depends on the wedding budget you and your fiance’ set. If you want keepsakes to pass on, then definitely go for nicer jewelry. Most couples give each other gifts on their wedding day. If money’s an issue, how about his gift to you be your wedding jewelry? If you he hasn’t seen your gown per tradition, he could take your mother or friend shopping for it.
http://www.ice.com has nice quality jewelry at often reasonable prices.
Good luck!
I got my wedding jewelry on sale at Macy’s for $12.50. I have pearls with a little bit of rhinestone and pearl tear drop shapes hanging down. Nobody needs to know they’re fake, and if people are that shallow, I don’t want them at my wedding anyway.
Just start scouting departments stores for good bargains.
Something def. simple. You dont want people to see your “bling” before they see your wedding gown. Go with maybe a strand of pearls.
I really think that the jewelry set on that page to the right would look really good. You could probably find something similar at Claire’s if you don’t want to spend a lot of money, which you don’t need to for wedding jewelry.
nice set of fresh watter pearls their real their beautiful and inexpensive 8mm would run about 100.00 bucks for an 18 inch strand and matching earrings
I’d go with a nice pair of earrings myself. From what I can tell the gown does not have a very low cut neckline that you would need to ‘fill in’. A nice pair of pearl or crystal earrings would be plenty.

you could always see ig your mom, grandma, aunts, etc have some jewerly you can borrow for your wedding.
For my wedding, back in 2002, the neckalce I wore was borrowed from my mom and my earrings I borrowed from my sister.
Without a view of the front, it’s hard to tell whether you have to wear a necklace but because of the lace on the top, whatever the neckline, you probably don’t have to. You can get a pair of cheap earrings to wear; I mean, who’s going to know how much they cost? Don’t strain your budget.
Given it looks fairly detailed on the top, I really don’t think I would worry about a necklace and go with just a really nice earring, probably a style that drops down from the earlobe a bit though not a chandelier earring. The key is to not go overboard. If you are thinking a bracelet, be careful of tennis bracelet styles – pretty but snag satin badly. Unless it’s pearl with no sharp edges on the clasp, I wouldn’t risk it. I would maybe splurge on a nice earring especially if it is the only accessory. Good luck and best wishes!
SUCH a beautiful, traditional gown! Lovely choice. I couldn’t get it to show the front – am I just a dork, here?
I’d go with something simple -
I’m guessing that the front is a v-neck since the back is -

I would not do a necklace if you are doing a veil and earrings. This is sometimes too much going on. You want your face seen, not all the stuff you’re wearing.
