Hello fellow brides! I am struggling with these items for the big day. So far, I have only got the "Something new" covered. Several times over in fact. Lol. I am wearing FMIL's bridal jewelry to the rehearsal and RD. I'm at a loss on where to even put the rest on wedding day. Just wondering what you...

Hello fellow brides! I am struggling with these items for the big day. So far, I have only got the "Something new" covered. Several times over in fact. Lol. I am wearing FMIL's bridal jewelry to the rehearsal and RD. I'm at a loss on where to even put the rest on wedding day. Just wondering what you all have selected and would love to hear from the BAM's.

    I don't think I'm doing the old new or borrowed ones but when my dad passed I made sure to take some blue clothing and when I find the dress I plan to pick the shirt I think he liked best and have a piece sewn onto my dress.

    My new is dress, & shoes which are also my blue. Old is just gonna be an old ring I always wear on my rt hand, and possibly a necklace I got as a bm if it goes w/ my dress.

    Still trying to figure out the borrowed!

    All I know is my shoes will be blue and my dress will be new! I might borrow a veil from my SIL depending on style and all, for old I am hoping FMIL might have something form her mother that I can borrow for my something old, or I can use something of my grandmom's.

    @Ashley I love that heart!

    Mine were:

    - Old and borrowed: Two handkerchiefs, one that belongs to my dad and one that belongs to my mom. Figured one could be the old and the other the borrowed, lol.

    - Blue: Royal blue ribbon around my bouquet, and blue rosettes on my shoes.

    - New: My necklace, my mom had it made for me for my wedding.

    Don't mind my hands, I've had ugly wrinkly hands ever since I was a kid Smiley sad

    Old: my mother's engagement ring (she's a widow and doesn't wear it anymore, so she gave it to me)

    Borrowed: the veil, from a close girlfriend (I probably would have skipped the veil if I had to purchase one)

    Blue: my shoes were navy peeptoe pumps

    New: everything but the ring and veil, basically
