Need Opinions Ladies!

My mother informed me that she has a string of hand stung pearls that were my Great Grandmothers and she offered to have them reworked any way that I want for the wedding. I am super excited about it because I love the idea that they were my GGrandmothers...and I really want to make them work. However, my dress is considered 'soft white' and the pearls have more of a champagne color to them. Do you girls think they will work okay?

Also, I was thinking of possible reworking them into a bracelet, maybe two strands, but I am up for ANY ideas you guys might have!!

Lastly, does anybody know of any good jewelers that are trustworthy to ask to work on this? I really want to make sure I don't leave them with just anybody.

TIA!!!

I love the idea of using her pearls. :)

unless the pearls are REALLY off, I say they will be gorgeous w the dress.

you could do so many things. string them into a necklace and wear them plain like that or get an enhancer for bling and I LOOVE bracelets so that could be amazing as well.

I love it!!! I don't think they will clash at all, and I think the bracelet sounds like a great idea.

I'd recommend Gennaro Jewelers in Bellmore. We had an antique pearl bracelet restrung through them for my wedding (they send the pearls out to be done) and it came out beautifully.

That sounds like a pretty idea!
