    Old/Borrowed: a pair of amethyst earrings my FMIL is letting me borrow

    New: Uh, everything else Smiley smile

    Blue: I think I'm going to go with a blue garter belt (not doing a toss, it will be just for me and FI *wink wink*)

    Depending on the dress - going shopping for it in a few weeks! - I might also use a string of pearls that my FMIL gave me as my "old", but I will have to see how it looks with the dress I pick out.

    I also joke that FI is going to be my "old", because he's 13 years older than me, and I often tease him about his age. Hehe.

    Old: I think my grandmother's handkerchief. It has a "P" embroidered into it. Guess it's been passed through the family. I got it when she passed away.

    New: My dress, jewelry, shoes, garter set, etc.

    Borrowed: I have no freaking clue LOL..... thinking of taking a chunk of my mom's wedding gown and sewing it into mine (under the skirt or inside somewhere)

    Blue: I have decals for the bottom of my shoe that are blue but IDK if I am going to use them or try to find something else.

    We're skipping these in the traditional sense and doing them as our signature drinks instead.
