OLD: my grandparents Greek Orthodox wedding crowns, and my grandmothers vintage pearl clutch.
NEW: my handkerchief that I had embroidered, also my shoes, and dress
BORROWED and BLUE: my parents had a cake centerpiece when they got married that shattered but they kept the two glass wedding bells after it broke.  They gave one each to my sister and myself.  I am borrowing my sisters and hanging them both on my bouquet with a blue ribbon.  Then when she gets married she will borrow mine.

I'm also putting a sixpence in my shoe!

Oh, and a Greek tradition where all of the single bridesmaids sign the bottom of my shoes in the morning and by the end of the night, the person who's name is worn off the most is the next to get married!

Blue- my garter, which will also have cubs on it lol

Aperitisa, I never heard of the tradition of signing the bottom of the shoes, but I love it, I might have to do that toO!

OLD My grandmother gave me a necklace that her grandmother gave to her mom to wear at her wedding which my grandma wore at her wedding and my mom wore at her wedding so I will be the 4th generation to wear it when I get married.
NEW Dress
BORROWED Veil (I hope!)
BLUE Underwear? I haven't quite figured this out yet.

My mom surprised me a couple days before my wedding with these:

OLD: My maternal grandmother's ivory beaded clutch

NEW: A compact mirror with my new married name engraved on it

BORROWED: Mom's handkerchief

BLUE: A blue pouch containing a very old charm bracelet my paternal grandmother instructed that my parents pass down to me "at a suitable time"

Mom said she couldn't find a sixpence, so she gave me a silver dollar instead. It was a little too big to put in my shoe, but it was a sweet thought!
