Some Necklace Ideas

So I am looking to get a pearl necklace with a pendant to match my gorgeous chandelier earrings, the ones I'm wearing in my sari picture.

This style I believe is called the Rani Haar (queen's necklace). I think this style will match very well...what do you think? Which one of these 3 do you think will work best....I need some help here!

Also I have some great news to share....

A Colourful Dream

i'm thinking of keeping a bright and colourful colour palette for my wedding and just love these photos above by Karen Wise. check out more photographs from Priti's colourful wedding in india here.

i hope i'll be able to convince a tent walla to give me exactly this when time comes...still undecided on the dates (had a fight with my boyfriend) and so a bit gloomy but these pics have lifted my mood and it can only get better from here:)

now i have a question...to what extent are the husbands to be involved in this whole wedding planning? it takes two to marry...does is also take two to plan? or can i go on doing this on my own (ha)?

traditionally in india..the wedding ceremony and dinner are paid for by the bride's parents, so i would assume that it is the bride's side of the family that take all wedding decor related decisions. hmm.. yes i think thats how it works.

"the wish list"

lets begin with my wish list here....

a) i love ritu kumar bridal attire for her attention to detail and traditional styles. they are sober and elegant and not too in your face which i think i very important to me. they are also very expensive....but a girl can dream right??

b) priyanka chopra's long hair ;) mine are short and curly (very curly ringlets..all natural)

c) sabyasachi's clothes (image above)...all of them and especially his genius in styling!

d) cartier trinity ring....have always wanted it to be my wedding ring..:)(i'm putting no real pressure on my boyfriend for this though:)

i'll be adding to this list now...i love this exercise...its a good way to mentally sort oneself out!
