So here's the thing. I have a lovely strand of pearls that my parents gave me when I graduated from law school. They are slightly off-white (as pearls are), but my dress is white white. Too clashing?
I bought these yesterday:
I tried them on and was shocked that they didn't make my feet look like giant white boats like every other white shoe I have tried. They're actually pretty cute and the shoe store owner had the brilliant idea of dyeing them black or something after the wedding so that I could wear them because honestly, when am I ever going to wear white shoes again.I tried on my dress with my shoes and my veil yesterday and, holy cow, I look like a bride!
* One of my panicky thoughts last night as I lay in bed running through my list of what's left to do was, "What happens if I have to pee?!" Seriously. I have no answer.

Pearls with your dress should be find. I did that with my wedding, and you can't even tell.
As for gettting and and out of the dress.....ha! Do I remember that. I just said a prayer that once I was in, I'd be ok for a few hours. All I can say is go before you get in your dress and then go again.
Go with the pearls. Pearls look like pearls and people expect them to be the color they are. The opap wasn't white-white either was it. Also, the way the pearls drape around your neck will be much more complimentary with the neckline of your dress.
Just my two cents. ;-)
I think the pearl will look great. The shape of the necklace will look good with the shape of your dress and complement the pearls elsewhere on your dress and veil too.
