A timeless wedding tradition that a lot of brides use for their wedding is “Something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue.”
It wasn’t something I even thought about for my wedding, probably because we were only engaged for 5 months. However, I do love seeing different ideas that brides have done. It’s an easy way to make your day unique and a little more special for yourself and those involved.
I polled my Facebook friends and our Studio Veil followers and here are some ideas on how to incorporate the timeless tradition…
Something Old…
- Handkerchief- Mom’s
- Pearl Necklace- Mother-in-law’s (gift when she was pregnant with the groom)
- Blue Broach- Great Grandmother’s
- Ring Bearer Pillow
Something New…
- Dress
- Jewelry
- Shoes
Something Borrowed…
- Clutch
- Veil- from sister
- Ring- the ring the bride’s mom gave her dad on their one year dating anniversary
Something Blue…
- Pin- pinned to garter
- Ribbon- in garter
- Ring- the ring the bride’s mom gave her dad on their one year dating anniversary
- Broach- from Great Grandmother
- Tie on bustle- Seamstress attached
Hopefully some of these ideas inspire you when deciding how to incorporate the timeless tradition into your wedding day.
