I agree... the hair & necklace will give you a completely different feel if you played around with it.

good luck!

Your gown is beautiful...I think your hair in a chignon would look gorgeous...no necklace, chandelier earrings...I would go with a different veil - maybe a cathedral length - something elegant and dramatic would suit your gown perfectly.

Beautiful gown. My suggestion, pull hair back and up. Maybe try your veil in a different position. Add a headpiece/tiara of some kind. And although the necklace is pretty, I think maybe something wider and closer to your neck -- a choker? -- would offset the neckline of the gown better.

I have to echo the rest of the girls here - with that kind of neck line you need a different necklace and pulled back hair.

It's a beautiful dress!!

I think a pearl necklace would look beautiful with your dress!

Hair up, and a simple pearl drop necklace or none at all. Less is better!

I think you should put your hair up and change the necklace. Or else, maybe a tiara or headpiece?

Re: I feel like there is something missing... (w/pics)

I decided not to wear a necklace at all and I am going for another hair trial to see my hair up. I have to look for a headpiece and chandelier earrings... Thanks for all the great advice. I know this will all pull together somehow.

You look so beautiful and I think your dress is stunning.

I'd go for putting you hair up and adding something sparkly to your hair like a tiara or pins, or sparkles on the veil.

For jewelry I'd go for a necklace without a pendant and either something like the pearls posted or a sparkly strand.

Have you thought about wrist length (short) gloves? Not really my taste but it would be really cute with your dress.

Re: I feel like there is something missing... (w/pics)

how about a pair of really sparkley chandalier earrings. and definitely a different necklace. how about putting your hair up and also moving the veil higher up on your head?

Oh, you do look really beautiful! The more I think about it, maybe no necklace at all b/c it might take away from you dress :)

Re: I feel like there is something missing... (w/pics)

Since your dress is quite full, I would also have a fuller and longer veil. You have a beautiful face and a long neck so your hair should be pulled up. I would also suggest longer earings and no necklace. but a bracelet instead. Your dress is gorgeous!
