Beaus And Pearls

We are so excited to kick off Beaus and Pearls Pageantry once again with a fun and meaningful charitable event!

This year, a large portion of the proceeds will be donated to Ms. Candace, the owner of The Catfish Wagon—our wonderful event host—and her amazing team. We’ve seen firsthand how dedicated Ms. Candace and her staff are to our community, especially during the holiday season when they collect and donate countless items to help children and families in need.

This pageant is our way of showing appreciation for everything they do and joining forces to make an even bigger impact. Together, we can celebrate beauty, confidence, and kindness while giving back to a cause that truly matters.

Royal Inspirations Division 

This division is for any child with a disability - because they inspire us all to dream bigger. The Royal Inspirations Division will ensure the contestant leaves with their very own sash and crown. They will compete alongside their age division to make friends and be celebrated. They also receive side awards and scores from judges. 

Entry Fee(s):

Divisions Baby-Teen $90 

This is all-inclusive, we do not have any hidden fees.

These divisions are a cheaper fee hoping to gain more entries into these divisions so more women and boys may experience our amazing events and build confidence.

For all contestants with super powers

SIBLINGS $80

We are happy to provide sibling discounts for Baby-Teen divisions each contestant would get a $10 Sibling Discount - must fill out a form for each contestant.

 

What’s Included with the Entry Fee

Every contestant is guaranteed to leave with:

• A beautiful sash

• A goody bag
• Side award(s)
• And most importantly… a big smile!
• No contestant will leave empty-handed.

Division Awards

Each division will have a Division Supreme Winner who will receive a stunning sash and beautiful crown.

Instead of announcing 1st Alternate, we will crown a Division Queen for each division receiving a stunning sash and crown.

Side awards will be given for both the Formal and Outfit of Choice portions.

Photogenic & Overall Awards

One Free Photogenic Entry is included with the entry fee. Everyone will receive a form to digitally submit their photogenic entries. This will be sent to judges before the pageant day and judged prior, saving time on the big day!

Contestants also qualify for Overall Awards, divided into three age groups for fairness:

• 0–6 years
• 7–12 years
• 13+ years

Overall awards include:

• Overall Photogenic
• Overall Formal

All Overall Awards will be announced first, except for Overall High Point.
Overall High Point will be announced after all divisions have been crowned.
If you win Division Supreme, you also qualify for Overall High Point.

Confidence-Focused Approach
We do not announce alternate placements. Instead, all alternates will be recognized equally as Princess in no particular order.
Parents or chaperones may contact the director, Tiffany Cochran, privately after the competition for exact placements or to request help interpreting judges’ scores/comments for growth and feedback.

Photography
Due to rising costs, stage shots are not included in the entry fee.
Stage shots will be available for $20 per contestant.

 

Non-Scored Award

Each contestant will be entered into our people's choice competition. We will award two winners based on the two time frame breakdown.  The winners will receive a gorgeous crown and sash. All contestants receiving 80 or more votes will receive a special plaque and on-stage recognition.
