My parents want me to take out my nose ring on my wedding day. I don't know. It's who I am. I've had a nose ring for the past 7 years. My folks say a nose ring is not proper wedding jewelry. I don't want to upset them, or embarrass them in front of some of our more conservative distant relatives and friends, but I also want to be me. Any advice?

I understand your dilemma.It's a tough one. I would say, reluctantly, don't wear it. If it makes your folks upset, maybe it's not worth it. You'll be stunning in your dress and hairdo and all radiant from excitement. If your parents feel so strongly about the nose ring, maybe leave it behind. Wear a striking pair of diamond earrings and diamond pendant instead. I know it's not a fair request on your parents' part. It is your day. But if it's such a big deal for them, maybe let it go.

A friend of mine wore a gorgeous diamond nose ring on her wedding day. She looked awesome. A nose ring should definitely be considered proper wedding jewelry if you ask me. There are some striking nose pieces out there. If you have had a nose ring for years and it's part of who you are and you feel weird without it, your wedding day is surely not the day to feel weird. I would find a gorgeous diamond nose stud. Explain to your folks how important it is to you to feel comfortable on your wedding day, and that a nose ring makes you feel comfortable. Hopefully they'll come around. Maybe if the nose ring is an elegant diamond stud, they will approve more, and deem it more elegant and appropriate.
