I bought my BMs matching pearl earrings and pendant/necklaces and pearl bracelets to go with their champagne BM dresses (I felt pearls would look most elegant with their dress color.) My BMs do not know what their gifts are and won't until the RD. Today I was at work ordering a bracelt for my youngest FG (it is a pearl bracelet with a dangling heart charm where her name will be engraved.) My BM (we teach together) said it is pretty- I usually don't like white pearls, but that bracelet is pretty. Now I am upset because I know she is not going to like her BM gift! It is too late for me to return the necklace and earrings since I have had them since before Christmas ( I ordered them from an on-line pearl store.) I am just so sad knowing that she won't like the gift . . . .

Re: A little upset . . .
Definately call or write the store to find out their return policy. I wouldn't worry too much though....I was faced with a very similar situation. My MOH may have the same necklace as I got them but I wasn't 100% sure. So what I did was get it anyway. If she already has it I figured that I would take it and get her something else later. IS that maybe an option for you? If you think it would look great with their dresses and you love it go for it and worry after the wedding.

Re: A little upset . . .
Unfortunately, I am giving all of the girls matching jewelry, so I would hate to give everyone the same and one different. I can't keep it for myself anyway because one of my BMs just found out she is pregnant and may not be in the wedding anymore (long story) so I will already end up with her jewelry. I really think the jewelry I ordered was classy and understated. Maybe I am just being overly obsessive about this . . . Here is the jewelry:

try not to assume she won't like it. She may suprise you. Sometimes I know I think I don't like something and when I see something in person I do!

I agree with hmm.
I always say I don't like something but when you put it on, it always has a different look.
Don't worry about it.

Exactly, I didn't think I'd like half the jewelry I got and I really love it!
