~*~ Mindyjoy's May 19 2012 Disneyland Wedding TR ~*~ Trip Report Has Begun!

[belle2211]

Hey! I agree with Jenifer...I like the second necklace, but I feel like its too...trendy (is that the right word?) for a wedding. I too have a Swarovski outlet here too if you want to give me the info and I can call it!

Have you tried Etsy? http://www.etsy.com/listing/6700711...dient&ga_search_type=user_shop_ttt_id_5632864

So I love Miss Betsey, but I don't feel like that's a 'wedding necklace?' Maybe we can make it a bit more grown up?? Hm. I'm going to go on a search for you and see what I can find. I love love love that first one! I may venture to the mall later or tomorrow and I'll see if I can find it. There's also a Swarovski outlet near my house, if you get me the style number I can call them and see if they have it???

I'm so sorry mama. But I LOVE that first one Corinna posted. I vote for it. It's Swarovski so it's pricey, but nobody can match their sparkle!

You ladies are so sweet! I didn't even know there were Swarovski outlets! I can't find a style number since it's not on their website but here's a link to the black/white one, if that helps at all. http://www.swarovski.com/Web_US/en/..._Crystal_Collar.html?CatalogCategoryName=0108

I love the necklace and I love the Lord and Taylor earrings. I don't think that this is too young at all. It is a shame that the crystals won't lie flat as I think that it needs the third strand for the overall effect.

When browsing, I came across this little beauty, which is again Swarovski and therefore pricey:

I also found this on Ebay, which is an absolute bargain:

These are both really pretty, thanks for posting the links!

Once the stores open I will give them a call for you!

I have to say, I LOVE the first necklace!!!

 

[belle2211]

Hey..I called mine and no such luck...BOO!

 

[belle2211]

I called our local store (not outlet) and she's going to look into it for me..I'll let you know what she says!

Okay, so I just had the BRILLIANT idea to check the similar necklace on the swarovski website for the length. It dawned on me that I have no idea the size of the necklace and it may be way too long for the neckline of my dress! So I looked it up and was very surprised to find out it's too SHORT! It's a very short necklace, more like a choker but at the base of the neck. That would be very uncomfortable to wear.

So thank you to those who offered to call around to find it, but that won't be necessary anymore.

So for now I'm sticking with Betsey!

 

[belle2211]

So the lady called me back and said that she talked to the outlets (the same one I had just called) and that the necklace isn't there yet but should be going there sometime so she gave them my name and number to call when it gets there!

Lol...okay, no problem! Glad you found that out now instead of later!

Thank you SO MUCH for your time generosity in trying to help me out. I love my Disney brides!!!!

I posted some links on DB..but I love this one: http://www.yesstyle.com/en/cuteberr...rrings-pink-one-size/info.html/pid.1024376488

Comes with earrings too

 

[lilsqueakrr]

So I know you were going to stick with Betsey, but did you ever think of using a necklace extender?? It'd add a few inches to the back and blend right in, especially if your hair is down??

I love this one! Gorgeous and affordable!

The Betsey one is cute too, though I kind of agree with the others that maybe it's a bit too young or trendy for a wedding? I think it would be cool for a rehearsal dinner or shower though. On the other hand, you're a pretty unique bride so I think if you want to you could pull it off!

I haven't been around for a little while and I missed a bunch. First of all I love love love your save the dates. They are absolutely adorable. The fabric flowers are turning out awesome!!! And I agree on the sparkle tulle that would totally be my choice as well.

I share your thoughts on the D23 expo. I was there the whole weekend and it was frustrating but I did have some fun. Saturday was crazy and I didn't even stay I went back to my hotel and swam. I did however have a lot of fun at Disneyland!!!

Hi Mindy!

It feels like ages since our April cruise and I have been very absent from the DIS since then, but just randomly found your PJ when I was looking at some D23 Expo stuff so thought I'd pop in and see how you're doing.

LOVE the dress you found and your STDs are FABULOUS. Showed DH your engagement pics and he said "why didn't we have a Disney wedding?!?!" (only a Disney honeymoon for us back in 1998 )

Good luck for the next couple months of planning - it will go by quickly! And, of course, congrats to you and Tim!

Take care!
Holly
