At my ceremony we got pinned and wore crisp, white uniforms (no smocks TG!), and carried candles but no caps. We wore caps for our pictures, though. Our caps look like little souffle cups.
Our ceremony was beautiful, and I bawled just about the whole time. Don't ask me why; I was just so close with all the girls in my class (well, there was one guy but I couldn't stand him... still can't!), and it was all just so sweet and touching. To see my friends and their little kids come up on stage to help put their mommies' pins on. It was nice.

I have a question for you all. I am a PN graduate/RN student. I recently got pinned for PN. Some of my fellow students and I were discussing being capped during the pinning. It was just a thought, although I would really like to be "capped" at my RN pinning. I know the men wouldnt like this at all, but what is your opinion, ladies?? Bring back the nursing cap for pinning, or no?
