Hello-just wondering what kind of jewelry everyone is getting to go with the bridal gown...costume jewelry? sterling with CZ or crystal? I have a gown with a modified sweetheart neckline, I think I should wear a 'y' necklace or one with a drop, but other people say no.....I have been browsing the Maggie website and a lot of the necklaces do have drops.....just need some input...thanks

Mine will be the rhinestone earrings and necklace with a drop. I'm borrowing that from my mom as 'something borrowed.'

Re: bridal jewelry
i think a regular neckace (not y-shaped) would look pretty.
I got a pretty set from parkavedesigns.com, for $18. its crystal i think. if i had won that 220 mill. mega-millions, tho, it would be diamonds lol!!
you should find cheaper necklaces in the style you like and bring them to your fitting - or try them on with your dress' sample. that may help? you can always return them later...
Good luck!

Re: bridal jewelry
My dress is a modified sweetheart neckline too and I'm wearing chandelier earrings - no necklace or bracelet.
I personally like for myself if I was wearing a sweetheart neckline is a necklace with a bit of a drop, but not a Y necklace. But you should try some on and see.
I personally like CZ or Diamonique (found on QVC.com site) or crystals - I don't want to spend a ton of money on the jewelry myself since I won't wear it that often but I don't want to get anything cheesy looking too. ONe thing about ebay, I bought something that looks nice but when I got it, it was not good quality. So beware.
Someone on here (steffie sunshine1 I think?) and others suggested emitations.com and I like that alot.
But FH just informed me last night of a big jewelry sale tomorrow for 4 days at Macy's so he is going there tomorrow to get me something!!!!! This is unexpected but who am I to say no? So you might want to check that out too.

Re: bridal jewelry
My parents bought me a diamond necklace as an early wedding present so they want me to wear that. I don't think I am wearing much jewelry otherwise.

OHHHH robeymuse I'm sure that will be gorgeous!!!
I have two diamond necklaces I got as graduation gifts - but they aren't right for my dress - My dress has Swarovsky (sp?) crystals in it - and mom and I were looking at a necklace the other day at Swarovsky - which I am 99% sure I will buy.

Re: bridal jewelry
thanks Christine. It is nothing huge, it is actually kind of antique looking but really unique...completely 'me'. I thought about wearing earrings but the top of my dress has so much detail...I am going mimimal on the jewelry.

Re: bridal jewelry
For my 'something borrowed', I'm in the process of trying to convince my mom to let me wear her diamond earring.
