Sure Your Bridal Jewelry is Important, but Don't Lose Sight of What's Really Important Here
by: Allyson Rainer
Beaded, vintage bridal jewelry can make a woman lose her mind. Your wedding jewelry plays a big part in your dream of that one moment in your life when every person in the room turns and looks at you. And no one is allowed to laugh. If you have done it right, there may be a collective gasp of delight. If you are wearing the proper amount of sparkle, an elderly aunt might faint by your dazzle.
It's the same thrill as walking in a room with stacked floor to ceiling designer shoes in your size. I have never been lucky enough to experience this, but I am a woman and I have my fantasies. In fact, entire television series have been written about this. It was called Sex in the City. And, yes, the sex part was great, but the shoes were what we really wanted.
So it goes with women and shopping for wedding attire. Starting with finding the dress right down to the purchase of the perfect earrings to show off our daintiest little lobe. We have our dreams and besides, we are wired this way. Nothing can be done about it.
It's like trying to stop a cat from puking hairballs on your new white rug. Some things cannot be stopped. And sometimes when we're making these kinds of decisions, we women can get just that unattractive about the whole thing. That's when, if you are lucky, your man steps up to the plate.
Somewhere in the background - behind the puking cat and you the bride-to-be pulling your hair out over which hairpin matches just the exact color of your bridemaid's dress - is that guy you've decided to love, honor and cherish. And if he's half the guy you deserve, he's looking fondly over the cat at you in your panic and realizing he doesn't have a clue what's going on. If he's really good, he'll get up and make you a cup of tea and pat you on the back. Then, if he's really smart, he'll bolt out the door and let you work it out on your own.
At some point, after you've sipped some tea and wiped up cat hairball, you'll come back around because you WILL find the perfect necklace and a fabulous dress. And you will remember eventually that you've managed to find a great mate too. And this is what it's really about.
