Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend but who can resist some pretty pearls as well? Pearls crop up time and time again in classic, elegant weddings where brides are looking to recreate a timeless, vintage style. When we think of pearls, we automatically think accessories and it’s no surprise as there are so many beautiful ways to incorporate them in to your wedding day fashion from beautiful pearl jewels and stunning hairpieces to clutches, shoes and even a flurry of pretty pearls as part of a wedding dress (for some seriously wow wedding style with pearls, be sure to take a look at the back of this stunning wedding dress here). If you’re after an unusual way to include pearls in to your wedding look, check out the bridal bouquets below – the trailing ribbon bouquet tie is a big trend for 2015 but you can give ribbon a run for it’s money with a dainty pearl tie as seen below.
But you don’t have to save your pearls for your wedding fashion and accessories. There are lots of ways to weave pearls in to your wedding décor. For your ceremony, pomanders don’t have to have a ribbon loop – replace it with a string of gorgeous pearls for that wow factor. For your reception, use pearls as romantic garlands and drape across the back of the happy couple’s reception chairs, opt for pearl frames for a pretty take on table numbers, create romantic bow napkins by cinching in the centre with a string of tiny pearls and of course your sweet table has to get in on the action as well – opt for these dreamy dots as a beautiful trim on your wedding cake or a gorgeous garnish for some cupcakes or iced sugar cookies.
