    I was also skeptical of you using glue, but it looks great! I don't think a black veil would match well, but you could incorporate a black ribbon, either around your waist or in your hair.

    I was definitely expecting something to look a lot worse than the pictures showed. It looks tasteful. I definitely wouldn't add more

    It looks really nice! What jewelry are you planning on wearing? I think some nice onyx gems would look great with it and really bring out the ones on the dress.

    I think it looks beautiful and I would not add anything else.

    ETA: I saw the pics and I LOVE IT!! I think you added just the right amount of stones, and the black ribbon ties it all together.
