About Mrs. Pencils

My wedding jewelry and my “somethings” were some of my favorite parts of my wedding attire.

I spent a lot of time choosing a wedding fragrance. Then Chanel came out with the new Chance - “Eau Tendre” and I knew I had to have it. It was delicious. I put that on first.

Then I doubled up my extra long necklace of pearls, gently pulled them over my hair, and put my simple stud pearl earrings on.

My mom helped me clasp my Swarovski pearl and crystal bracelet on; it complemented my hair pins with similar flowers.

You can see my something old on my pinky - it was a gift from my MIL. It was a gorgeous amethyst ring that I ended up placing next to my something blue that Brother of Honor got me:

A simple and sweet ankle bracelet with a beautiful blue stone.

My something borrowed was a handkerchief that I borrowed from my maternal grandmother - I used it to soak up water from my bouquet.

And last but not least, my garter. Bridesmaid AT helped me put it on:

I HAVE THE SAME SHOES! (In ivory, though…)

I love them, were they wearable all night long? I’m hoping they are. My grandmother thinks they are silly, but I live in my flip-flops.

Beautiful. Thank you for mentioning perfume, I keep forgetting it in my inventory of things to include in my prep routine on the wedding day. I have some that is special to FI and me so I hope not to forget it.

Interesting idea to put the ring on your ankle bracelet! My MIL lent me a ring that I ended up resizing (with her blessing) so I could wear it. I know it meant a lot to her to see me wearing it though so I’m glad I did.

Is your perfume intended to look like a wedding ring? In that picture you posted (the first one), the resemblance to a ring is uncanny! Just something I noticed!

p.s. your dress is absolutely gorgeousss, i saved pictures for my own search!
