so i'm planning a wedding. i read this community quite a bit <3 so i figured i'd ask for some assistance.





The top right corner is a pair of earrings my fiance brought back from Europe for me. I would not have thought to wear them except they match the leaf stitching perfectly on the top overskirt of my dress AND they match the flower girl dresses I managed to find to fit my two nieces off of ebay (two seperate listings both in their sizes omgs!) and they are a light light green which matches their dresses green stitching, my stitching design AND fits in with the 'garden' theme of our outdoors yard reception (ceremony at the beach but not going for a beach theme). We are making it quite whimsical, as you can see the jacket he died for and is hoping fits when it comes in the mail (crosses fingers) along with not so typical roses but instead gardenia and hydrangea along with a very hated by my mother cake and an almost themey wedding dress without being in your face.

My problems are this: i need a matching necklace and something for my ugly wants to be a fro short hair of terribleness!

Lack of money - everything we've either done, bought dirt cheap or lucked into through very lucky ebay auctions (they dress with shipping cost me $90 thank goodness i could sew to make a few repairs and it fits like a glove) so cost of a matching necklace and head piece are gonna have to be self made

Lack of time - wedding is August 2nd.

I found a pendant http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=12002011 but I don't have time to wait for it to come in the mail and then adapt. I was thinking of going with a double strand of 6mm ivory pearls with a dangle sorta leaf hanging down, haven't found a stone i'm extremely fond of but i did pick up some small green beads, some blue crystals (tiny) some little crystal dangles (i'm thinking those are getting returned) and was thinking of closing it with ribbon all in all.

Any idea where I could find a bail/finding like that in the picture? Any idea where I could find it locally (ugh ><) or order it quickly and gosh i need something for my hair and it can't clash with my glasses.

i have to keep the back part of the choker simple since my tattoo is very visible and framed in the back of my dress (it's a dragonfly). Did this rambling make sense gosh I keep telling myself it's almost over and planning will be done soon but it doesn't seem to be getting any closer.

Any advice, links, tips, etc would be greatly ever so appreciated!
