wel my sister is getting married soon and shes wearing her best friend blue garter, so that covers her something borrowed and something blue. for her ‘something old’ she has my grandmas weding ring, which she was left when my grandma died, she is having this as her wedding ring and for her something new, my mam has bought her pearl earings to wear on the day!

It’s always different. For me, this is what I had:

Old: silk rose from my Aunt’s wedding bouquet that she gave me at her wedding when I was 10.

New: dress, headband, veil

Borrowed: my sister in law’s petticoat

Blue: My sapphire promise ring

It would be something sentimental to her. I wore a blue garter (something I think has become the norm) but my bridesmaids were also in blue.

Something new was everything. Something old was my shoes. I had white shoes from prom that were about 6 years old. Something borrowed was suppose to be my mothers tanzanite ring. I love that ring and wanted to wear it on my wedding day but at the last moment my mom decided she was going to wear it instead. However I borrowed a couple items in the back though I didn’t walk down the aisle with them–I borrowed my cousin’s book to read and a tote bag from my cousin for the stuff that I needed to have later but wasn’t wearing down the aisle (my glasses, my watch, my wallet).

My sister came running in telling me my groom had left his ring at his house so I borrowed my grandfathers (50 years behind it). He sent someone to his house to get it so I ended up going down the aisle with a ring on each thumb.

You left out the last line “and a sixpence in her shoe” but I couldn’t find a sixpence. I’m not even sure if they still make it.

Remember that the “something borrowed” should be something you borrow from a happily married woman…you are supposed to be “borrowing” some of her happiness for your own. That’s why I borrowed a snip of lace from my sister – she is the happiest wife I know, and I just tucked it in my bra, lol. And, speaking of my bra…I wore a matching blue undie set, since I didn’t have a garter (we had a morning wedding at a small country church…didn’t do the whole garter thing as it didn’t seem apropriate). My “something new” was my wedding dress, obviously, and my something old was my father’s papatrooper wings…he died 4 years ago, and I wanted something of his, so I pinned his wings to the ribbon that held my bouquet together.

As far as what else you should bring, the lady above has it more than covered. Did she mention a Tide pen, though? If not, they’re handy. Just make sure it can allll fit into one bag, and you appoint someone (your mom or an aunt or bridesmaid) to be keeper of that bag. One less thing for you to worry about.

Congrats, sweetie!

Most of the time the new and blue are a new dress and a blue garter. This is not a must you can have basically anything but these are the easiest things. now something borrowed can be about anything I’m borrowing my sister in laws hair piece that she wore. Soemthing old should be a hand me down from a relative (i have yet to get that lol). It’s usually different for every bride though.

Answer by diamondsandsapphire
these are mine:

Old & Borrowed: my mom’s garter that she wore at her wedding

New: everything else on my body lol

Blue: my necklace is sapphires and diamonds (as is my engagement ring).
