Bridal Pearl Jewelry- Best Accessory to Wear on Your Wedding Day

When a bride walks down the aisle wearing her wedding gown and matching veil, she becomes a stunning vision of purity and innocence. But when she wears bridal pearl jewelry on her wedding day, the union becomes almost unforgettable. This is because no matter how small pearls may seem to be, they are one of the most significant gems a woman could ever have on the big day.

For years, pearls have been highly regarded because they convey different meanings to different cultures. In ancient times, pearls have been associated as the moon that is why they are often worn by priestesses and even offered to goddesses. In eastern cultures, they mean spiritual transformation and purity. For the Japanese, they mean good luck and for the rest of the world, pearls mean honest, pure and wise – characteristics that would make any woman walk down the aisle with utmost dignity.

When the birth stone chart was created, pearl was assigned for those born in June. And this fact makes the commonly heard phrase a “June bride” more meaningful. The significance of the pearl in any wedding, anywhere in the world has been strengthened by tradition and practice. In fact, the ancient Greeks were known to have worn pearls during their weddings to ensure marital bliss. And up to this day, Hindu weddings are not considered complete if the presentation of undrilled pearls does not take place.

The look of the bridal pearl jewelry has evolved through time. From the princess length pearl necklaces of the olden times to the more modern creations of stunning pendants, earrings and bracelets, they still remain staples in any wedding. Pearls may be worn by the bride or sewn on the wedding gown.

Popular Brides Who Wore Pearls

The oldest known bridal pearl jewelry was given to a Persian princess who died in 520 B.C. The jewelry is currently displayed in the Louvre Museum in Paris. Also, in 1947, Queen Elizabeth II was said to have been given the Queen Anne necklace and Queen Caroline pearls as gifts from her father during her wedding with Prince Philip. These necklaces are made of large graduated pearls and pearl clasps. This tradition of giving pearls from the royal family’s heirloom continues until today.

Other celebrities who wore pearls during their weddings are Gloria Vanderbilt, Jacqueline Kennedy, and Grace Kelly.

Giving Pearls as Gifts

Aside from passing down pearls for the next generation bride to wear, pearls also make wonderful wedding gifts. Giving them as gifts is synonymous to wishing the couple good luck on their marriage.

Bridal pearl jewelry can either be saltwater or freshwater. If you’re giving pearls to keep up with tradition, the saltwater pearls would be your best choice because they are more affordable. Color choices range from rosy pink to black and each color is associated to different meanings. For instance, black means wealth, rose means love and of course, white means innocence. So choose your pearl jewelry gift well.

Pearls can also be given to the bridesmaids to show how the couple appreciates their participation and presence. And after years of marriage, wives would also appreciate being given pearl jewelry by their husbands especially on their anniversary.

A set of bridal pearl jewelry will always stand out no matter how simple or elegant your wedding is. With pearls, you are not only a making a fashion statement, you are also keeping the tradition alive.
