Admittedly, jewelry, especially pearl jewelry, is probably one of the most common gifts given by a bride to her bridesmaids.  Why? Pearls are classic and timeless, understated yet elegant, traditional and, most importantly, well-used.  Buying a trendy gift for a bridesmaid may be perfect for the wedding, but it also may become one of those items destined to remain packed away in a box after the big day is over.  Every bride is aware that asking someone to stand up for her at her wedding is a huge honor but also an expensive one for the bridesmaid.   Formal dresses, matching shoes and accessories, bridal shower gifts… all of these take not only a substantial amount of the bridesmaid’s time, but are also costly.  A way for the bride to acknowledge this, is by selecting a gift for her attendants that she’s confident will actually be something that the attendant would want for herself.  So, why pearls?  Pearl jewelry is just about guaranteed to become a piece of jewelry that will be well-worn and also fondly remind the bridesmaid of the bride and groom every time she puts it on.
