On her big day, Marcia Cross had her choice of gowns and accessories, with no concern for cost. So it makes perfect sense that when she walked down the aisle, she was one of the most radiant brides any of the guests had ever seen. Take comfort in the fact that although designers may not be fighting for the chance to make your wedding gown, and your guest list might not include the entire Desperate Housewives cast, Marcia's look is completely reproducible. Sarah Stephens, a jewelry designer for Dasha Boutique, explains how to capture Marcia's Hollywood wedding look when you say your own vows.
Victorian Class
Unsurprisingly, Marcia Cross left no stone unturned with her collection of more than 30 karats of Neil Lane diamonds. Cleverly mingled within Victorian-style platinum teardrop earrings and a heart shaped platinum necklace pendant, Marcia wore her diamonds as a classic, regal bride. Look for jewelry based in gold or oxidized silver for that antique look. The gemstones you embed within should be cleaned ahead of time to ensure maximum sparkle – the combination of this classic metal and a bit of shimmer will make for a gorgeously flattering accessory.
Personalized Hues
Just like clothing, jewelry colors and designs must be tailored to the individual wearer to complement her natural features best. So while you try to emulate Marcia's unique look, keep in mind that accessories are your opportunity to make your wedding ensemble specifically yours and act as a subtle reminder to all how personal this day really is. Take advantage of the unique histories and associations gemstones have. Use your birthstone, your astrological stone or a stone that peaks your mythological interests. This will ensure sentimentality even before you put your jewelry on.
