How Dune's Beach Sand Jewelry Helped Elevate My Wedding

Choosing to incorporate Dune Jewelry’s personalized beach sand jewelry into my destination wedding was such a beautiful experience!

From the moment I chose my bridesmaids, the women who matter the most to be in this world, I knew I wanted to give them a special keepsake on my wedding day. I wanted this “thank you” to be something they could also wear on the day of the wedding. Not only would this piece help elevate their look the day of the wedding, but it would also be something they could wear again and again as a reminder of this day and their unique role in it.

Because Dune’s sandbank collection is endless, I was luckily able to find sand elements from the exact beach in St. Maarten where I would say “I do.” They also have endless unique handmade jewelry options including the elegant, cascading raindrop earrings made with sterling silver, that I ultimately decided upon. These earrings not only incorporated the beach sand, but also tied in mother of pearl elements to further accentuate a bridal feel.

I knew jewelry this special would have to be shared with my mother, my new mother-in-law, and my niece, who was also my flower girl.

I chose the vintage Vivienne earrings for the mother-of-the-bride, and the simple Sandglobe earrings for my mother-in-law, while the Delicate Dune Heart Necklace was the perfect choice for my flower girl. Not only did everyone look stunning in their custom beach jewelry, but they were all so heartened by the thought behind them.

Dune’s experiential ocean-inspired jewelry is the perfect memento to celebrate life’s milestone moments. I can’t wait to customize a piece for myself with the sand I collected from our ceremony.

Thank you, Dune, along with your helpful and knowledgeable team, for making my special day so much more meaningful!
