Planning

Pearl wedding trend inspiration? Oh, we’ve got you. We’ve got you good. Pearls have been around for a very, very long time. They’ve been a huge part of weddings for as long as we can remember, but recently, they’re making a comeback, and in a big way. Just thinking about a necklace on your wedding day? Don’t be silly. They’re finding their sneaky little way onto your shoes, veils, dresses… maybe even your trainers. Now, we’re not suggesting your adorn yourself in pearls (but hey, if that’s your vibe, we’re here for it), but we are saying you may want to consider these little beauties in some way. After all, if they’re good enough for Royalty, they’re good enough for us. Although, the budget may differ slightly…

Pearl Wedding Dress

You know, we are just loving a bit of pearl detailing across a gown right now. It may the fact it gives us all those regal vibes, or it could just be because it looks so damn GORGE. Either way, we’re feeling it. Whether it’s a smattering of pearly goodness across your décolletage, or an entire bodice and sleeves covered, we are seriously into it.  

Pearl Earrings

Are you really going to shun the classic pearl earring? These little drops of heaven are the perfect addition to your look. Subtle yet a statement in their own way, they offer a simplistic touch when adding to your wedding day accessories. Or, you could take a more modern approach, and find something a little more contemporary than the OG pearl drop earring. 

Pearl Hair Accessory 

Crowns? We’re all for them. But pearl headbands? Yes. Yes. Yes. Whether you’re planning on an up-do hairstyle or something a little more relaxed, adding in a little something extra is always a winner. In fact, you can find a headband AND pearl wedding slide over at Recycle My Wedding…

Pearl Necklace

If your dress has a lower neckline (such as a sweetheart cut), then slipping on a pearl necklace is the perfect addition. Whether it’s a little droplet, or a bead of pearls, you’re bound to elevate your look. You can thank us later.

Pearl Shoes

If you’re loving the pearl trend, but unsure whether you want it front and centre, then shoes are the way to go. Oh, and of course trainers if you’re wanting to dance the night away, but don’t want to ruin your feet in the process. 

And The Rest…

From bags, to veils, to bracelets, to shoes; there’s a world of pearl out there! Adding this simple yet effective detail to your outfit is something we’ll never tire of seeing. So, why not take the pearl plunge? The inspiration is right here for you…


Now, don’t go anywhere, because we have an abundance of pearl wedding trend inspiration just waiting for you. Take a look at this gorgeous pearl wedding dress, which is the perfect example of how to incorporate the look into your day. Oh, and did you know it’s bad luck to wear pearls on your wedding day in Poland? But perhaps you can make an exception, just this once… oh, and we are obsessing over this Grace Loves Lace veil, which is available now at Recycle My Wedding!
