Prince Peter of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Sayn, the seventh and youngest child of the Prince of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Sayn and Countess Gabriela of Schönborn-Wiesentheid, married Yurina Hattori-Roche in a Religious Ceremony at Sayn Abbey followed by a Reception at Schloss Sayn,
Princess Yurina wore the Sayn-Wittgenstein-Sayn Pearl and Diamond Tiara which originates from the Prince’s maternal grandmother, Princess Helene von Thurn und Taxis,
Prince Peter and Yurina Hattori-Roche had a Civil Wedding Ceremony at Schloss Sayn on late September and are set to have a Shinto wedding ceremony in Japan in November.
The Sayn-Wittgenstein-Sayn Family also has a Pearl and Diamond Tiara in their collection, in a fairly modern design that dates from around the 1950s and 1960s, and originates from the Thurn und Taxis Princely Family. Countess Helen of Schönborn-Wiesentheid, née Princess of Thurn und Taxis wore the Tiara at the Wedding Ball of Prince Alexander zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Sayn, elder son of Princess Marianne, and her daughter, Countess Gabriela of Schönborn-Wiesentheid, at Schloss Weißenstein in 1969, and the Wedding Ball of Princess Marie Antoinette von Fürstenberg and her son, Count Johannes of Schoenborn Wiesentheid, in 1977.
The Pearl and Diamond Tiara was inherited by Countess Helen’s daughter, the current Princess zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Sayn, who notably wore it at the Wedding of Princess Alexandra of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg and Count Jefferson von Pfeil und Klein-Ellguth in 1998.
The Tiara is primarily worn by brides who marry into the family, like Donna Priscilla Incisa della Rocchetta who wore it to marry Hereditary Prince Heinrich zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Sayn in 2003, Countess Philippa Spannocchi wore the Tiara to marry Prince Ludwig in 2011, and more recently Alana Bunte wore the Tiara for her Wedding to Prince Casimir in 2019.
