A BEEutiful Something Borrowed

March 16th, 2011 @ 12:01 pm by Mrs. Elephant

Can I just say I LOVE Weddingbee???

After Mama Elephant purchased the amazing necklace that she later gave me at my shower, I had a feeling that my original earrings wouldn’t work.

So the hunt began! The first stop was Swarovski where Mama Elephant and I picked out the necklace. They had matching earrings, but they were not drop earrings and didn’t really do anything for me. I did search online, but was in no rush to select something because I thought I had a lot of time. I browsed around until a golden opportunity presented itself.

Enter Weddingbee, and in particular, Mrs. Champagne. She was so kind to send her wedding day earrings so I could see if they would work with my necklace.

Yay for a package with Weddingbee icons.

How sweet of Mrs. Champagne to wrap up the earrings in blue and green tissue paper that match our wedding colors! A little detail a bride would notice. :) She also included a touching card with that famous wedding saying on the front.

A little unwrapping and we have the gorgeous earrings!

LOVE them! The teardrop shapes go so well together and I am so honored to be able to include my something borrowed from a bee! Thank you so much Mrs. Champagne!!

Do you have something borrowed? What is it?

Your other earrings are fab too! You should wear those to the rehearsal!

My veil and necklace are from my sister. I saw no point in shelling out another $70 bucks for a piece of tulle, especially when she’ll never need it again.

Also, her fancy-ish necklace has some pearls on it and will look great with my pearl studs that FI gave me at our first Christmas. (a 5-year old Xmas gift qulifies as ’something old’… right?)

They are beautiful. They compliment your necklace perfectly. My something borrowed is my grandma’s pearl necklace. It now belongs to my mom, so I will have the strength of my parent’s 26 years and counting marriage and my grandma’s memory with me when I get married.

@Lindsay12.31.2010: I am really considering that!

@ItsPronounced_ABear: Those are perfect items for the something borrowed! I wish my mom still had her veil (I don’t have any sisters) so I could have borrowed it!

Beautiful earrings!! I love both pairs. Where did you get your first pair? They would go perfectly with my dress and necklace.

@SweetSara: Thanks! I purchased the first pair at the store where I bought my dress, Terry Costa in Dallas, TX. I bet there are other stores that sell that brand.

Aww to the packaging and the earrings and the luuuuve. If you could somehow get your adorable icon in wearable form, that would be a cute something-blue, too ;)
