Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.

Well, I could be your something old, lol....

Borrow a handkerchief from one of your grandmas or use one of their candle sticks on the ceremony table. Ask one of your moms for an old penny for your shoe (unless they happen to have a sixpence) Blue? Easy. Blue margueritas!

Something old: I'm going to pin a brooch from my mother (one that she got as a little girl) to my bouquet

Something new: my dress and a bunch of other stuff tbh

Something borrowed: When my sister got sick, my family gave her my grandmother's wedding ring. She wears it every day. She told me that she'd like to lend it to me for my wedding day. I'm really excited about that.

Something blue: my shoes!

I can technically cross off old, borrowed, and blue if I use my grandma's garter lol I feel like that's a little weird though....(thoughts?) My mom mentioned that she plans on getting me my something new, but I won't know what it it's until the day of so that it's truly "new."

Old: I'll pin my paternal grandmother's engagement ring to my bouquet

New: dress and 90% of the rest of the stuff

Borrowed: Probably earrings from my grandmother

Blue: shoes!

Thanks Celia! I think the best I might get from my grandmothers would be a xanex from one and an old cigarette pouch from the other. Lol I love the penny idea!

Old: My grandma's wedding band that my grandpa gave to her on their wedding day. Both my grandma and my grandpa passed away within the 3 months leading up to my wedding, so it meant so much to wear it.

New: My dress, veil, and shoes

Borrowed: My mom's necklace and my grandma's diamond earrings which my aunt inherited and let me borrow.

Blue: My garter and a ring that DH had bought me 6 years ago.

Old: my mom's pearl bracelet that she gifted to me

New: my dress

Borrowed: my mom's pearl earrings

Blue: my shoes

I was going to make this thread the other day, but I didn't (obviously!). I also want to see what peoples selections were.

Old: My diamond heart pendant that I'll have attached to my bouquet (my dad gave it to my mom when they were dating & they gave it to me on my 15th's birthday) & my set of pearls that FH gave me over the course of our 1st year of dating

New: Dress & shoes

Borrowed: Still figuring this out

Blue: my garter (KU themed for our alma mater!)

My something old & blue will be my great grandmother white handkerchief with her Initial embroydered in blue. I might add something from my grandmother on my dads side... not sure yet

My something new is my dress & shoes

My something borrowed will probly be my moms pear necklace

New: dress and shoes

Old and borrowed: mom's veil that my seamstress worked on and my necklace that belonged to my grandmother that is now my mom's

Blue: a gorgeous diamond and sapphire ring that belonged to my other grandmother, I need to figure out how to attach it to my veil because it doesn't fit any finger but my left ring finger

Old: my Grandmother's pearl and diamond ring

New: dress

Borrowed: earrings and veil

Blue: my sorority stone is a sapphire. I'll wear my sorority pin on the inside of my dress, near my heart.

I'm no help ...

I didn't do it. My sister didn't do it. My mother, almost 40 years ago, didn't do it.

Old: I will wrap a necklace that belonged to a friend of mine that passed away into my bouquet (bonus: I get to keep her with me during the ceremony). New: shoes. Borrowed: the only thing I don't have worked out, probably will wear my mom's earrings. Blue: the necklace I am wearing has a blue stone.

My something old and borrowed was my pearl necklace borrowed from my mom - my late grandfather originally brought it home 3 of them from the Korean War as gifts for his wife (my late grandmother), his mom and his grandmother. Now that they are all passed, the necklaces belong to my mom and aunts. My blue was my shoes, and my new was everything else!

I am borrowing my grandmother's bible from my sister for old and borrowed. New will be my dress, jewelry, shoes, etc. We are taking a piece of FH's Dress Blues and sewing a piece into my hem. And I got a sixpence from Etsy for my shoe. Etsy also has some really cute blue tags that you can personalize to sew into your dress.

I sewed a piece of my grandfathers old shirt into my dress

These are all so beautiful. My mom is checking with my grandma to see if she has something. She has dementia so we will probably have to have her put anything sje selects i to her travel bag right away. Hoping she has something from her wedding with my grandpa who is now deceased.

My old and borrowed was my great-great grandmother's locket borrowed from my mom. I inherited it when my mom passed away and I loaned it to my daughter when she got married. My garter was blue and my dress was new.

For my renewal my old will be the locket (and me!), my borrowed will be my daughter's pearls, my dress will be blue and new.

My old - Mom's necklace from her wedding

New - My dress

Borrowed - My veil is borrowed from my MOH

Blue - My shoes are light blue
