After MUCH deliberation about what jewelry to wear in my wedding, I finally purchased these earrings...
...They are the same ones Kate Middleton wore in THE ROYAL WEDDING, so VERY fitting! LOL
Now I just have to find a bracelet and maybe a necklace to match (not sure if I will wear a necklace since the bodice of my dress is so ornate).

Dress Progress
I saw my partially completed wedding dress yesterday & had my first fitting IN the dress & I finally had my "Say Yes to the Dress" teary eyed "ah ha" moment where I realized that is DEFINITELY my ideal dress (my Mom cried too)! It is all coming together PERFECTLY after much back & forth for a few months. The seamstress at the dress shop in Charlotte got the beading on the bodice EXACTLY the way I wanted it. I am so lucky to be able to create my own dress from putting together 3 dresses (Monique Lhuillier, Lazaro & Pnina Tornai) that I absolutely LOVED & adding my own finishing touches. I am so blessed to have VERY caring, patient & generous parents who have not bitched about the cost of anything & just want me to have everything the way I want it! I can't wait for my BIG day 11/17/12!!!

My Dress
I have my FIRST fitting IN my dress 9/12 with the alterations department at which time I get to see and approve the design of the bodice! My dress is a CUSTOM combination of the Monique Lhuillier rosette skirt below (1st pic), the Pnina Tornai crystal beaded bodice (2nd pic) & the Lazaro crystals IN the rosettes on the skirt (3rd pic). I am also having more Swarovski crystals and Pearls added to the top like on the Allure Couture bodice in the last pic for extra embellishment. :-)
