  How lovely of your Dad!  Pearls are the classic bridal jewelry, and they never go out of style.  You could wrap them around your wrist like a bracelet if you really don't want a necklace.  Then enjoy wearing them for the rest of your lifetime.

  I like the wrist suggestion from @CMGragain. You can also graciously accept and choose not to wear. The attire that the bride wears is up to the bride. You might also strike a compromise of wearing them for some photos.

  My daughter's wedding gift from her husband was a pearl bracelet.  She treasure it.  She knows that she will inherit my good pearls and earrings someday.
  
  To stabilize the necklace in a bracelet form, try using a small safety pin to secure the rows together so they won't slip around.  The pin won't be noticeable, especially if you put it near the clasp.  You could even cover it with a silk ribbon tie in a small bow.  You will need some help to do this because it must be done after you wrap the pearls around your wrist.

  Alternatively, if you are having a rehearsal dinner you could wear it as a necklace to that? I tried the necklace as a bracelet thing for a piece of jewelry for my wedding and it just didn't work right so I had to ditch it and was kicking myself for not wearing it at the dinner the night before.
