Old, New, Borrowed, and Blue...What's yours?

I know it may seem like a silly tradition, but I was wondering how many of you are doing it. And if so, what are you using for each? I need some ideas.
Me: 33 DH: 36 History of left ovarian pain and cysts. Laporoscopy in 1999 and 2001 showed possible cysts and minor adhesions. TTC since May 2011. Day 3: TSH 1.60mIU/L FSH 6.8mIU/mL Estradiol 46 pg/mL Day 10: FSH 5.3mIU/mL Sperm motility and morph 80% (Normal). HSG on 3/23/12 shows bilateral mid-tubal obstructions. Laparoscopy 5/22/12 revealed 100% bilateral obstruction, IVF only option to conceive.

    I am doing it, I dont know for sure. In the greek church you have all of your female friends that arent married yet you put it on a ribbon and attach it to the back of your train and it symbolizes that they follow you down the asle one day. I was thinking about writing their names in blue, just a cute lil touch.
