Should I wear a necklace with my halter top wedding dress?

Crystal, on June 15, 2010 at 6:30 PM Posted in Planning 0 20

I'm going back and forth on whether or not I should wear a necklace with my halter top wedding dress. The dress is mostly lace (over satin) with some pearls and beading. I'm going to do a simple single strand pearl bracelet and simply pearl drop earrings.

Here's a picture of the top of my dress. (of course that isn't the necklace I would wear, that's just what I had on that day LoL)

What do you think? Necklace (what kind?) or no necklace?

    I wouldn't, but I think that if you do it should be something very simple.

    No it will take away from your neckline and dress

    I think the necklace would definitely be too much with the neckline of your dress. The dress sort of acts as the necklace, itself..and a beautiful one at that!

    I would say no to the necklace, but if you really want to wear one maybe a single pearl drop necklace like this one.

    I had a halter and I did not. I think as the others have said you bling out with earrings and maybe a bracelet. Anything more would be overkill!

    I think you can wear a necklace but what kind all depends on you. i think you should go to the department store and just try on a bunch of different styles.

    I agree with the posts previously made. I would say no to a necklace but I would go with some dangling earrings and a nice simple bracelet.

    Usually with the halter neckline, it's either no necklace or a simple pendant or a Y drop.

    I just chose a halter style dress from my wedding and I am NOT wearing a necklace. I think a nice bracelet and long drop dangling earrings will work just fine! It's a beach wedding and I don't want to overdo it with "bling". Plus it'll be more comfortable with no necklace scratching against my neck with the halter and CHEAPER- no necklace to buy!
