 Hi ladies

I was just looking for some opinions on what people thought about bridesmaids having different jewellery? I have four bridesmaids (all adults) who will all be wearing the same dress and have the same hairstyle. They will all be buying their own shoes as I want them to all have something they'll find comfy and as the dresses are all long no-one will see the shoes anyway! I like the idea of them just styling their dresses with whatever jewellery they want but I am wondering if it would look odd if they all wear different pieces/styles? I'm quite happy to buy them all the same thing but like the idea of them putting a little bit of individuality to the dress. Not sure if I'm over thinking this though and if anyone will even notice!

Thanks in advance for your advice!

 I think it is entirely a personal choice. I have mine with matching accessories but thats just my kind of thing. I doubt people would notice if they wore the smae or different jewellery.

 @futuremrsd I've seen some photographs where the bridesmaids have different shoes/accessories/hairstyles and I think it looks really good. It shows them as individuals xx

hi hun why not buy similar styles, mine are all having earrings as they dont need a necklace as they have one shoulder dresses, they are all having butterflies but all different types,

My lil ones are all having butterfly necklaces but each has diferent colour stones, i got these off ebay for about 70p eacg from china and they are lovely!!!

 @mrsbaugh2be Thanks hun, thats a great idea. I like the thought of them having the same theme but slightly different items, I'll have a look at that. xx

 I was thinking of having a girly craft night making the earrings and necklaces with them, that way they will be able to put their own style into it but its still along the lines of what i want for them...and we may get through a few bottles of wine on the night as well......and because i dont want to go mad on the money the jewellry will count as their pressie for the day as well!!!

 @mrs_stacey_2013 oh that's a fab idea! Not sure if I'm creative enough to do that though! Put some pics up if you make yours, would love to see how it turns out. xx
