We're so excited that summer is here! It's a crazy busy wedding season this year, and to celebrate, we are giving away $1000 of Tigerlilly jewelry to one lucky bride to be! We are having so much fun reading about all of your weddings.

Anyway, there is still time to enter. Just email seasons@tigerlillyjewelry.com and tell us all about you, your wedding, and why you should be our first Bride of the Season. You'll win the $1000 prize, and you'll also get your picture and wedding details on our website all summer long!

Hurry! Contest closes on June 1 at midnight, and we'll choose a winner on June 2!

Pearl Colors

I love freshwater pearls. They go with every dress color. I am going to start blogging about questions I'm most frequently asked, and this is definitely up near the top of the list.

My dress is (white, ivory, diamond white, champagne, black, green, platinum, gold... fill in the blank). Will freshwater pearls go with it?

Absolutely. The natural freshwater pearl color is a pale creamy ivory color that goes with all shades of white and ivory. True, it is a slightly darker shade than a stark white, but stark white pearls look fake (because they are.) You probably don't want that.

It is absolutely ok, actually, more than acceptable but preferable - to wear the natural shade of freshwater pearl, rather than trying to find a glass pearl that will exactly match the shade of your gown.
