I want to - just b/c it feels like a special bride-y kinda thing to do.I'm thinking aqua blue toenails. I've got lots of new. Not sure yet about old and borrowed, but I'll talk to my mom about it over Thanksgiving.

Old: I had items of remembrance from each of my grandparents and my great aunt. I also had my (now) DH's mother's mothers' ring. All were in/on my bouquet. (All were deceased, except my grandmothers - they sent theirs for "luck"). The mother's ring would also fit the borrowed category. All other items were given to me.New: My dress, shoes, etc.Borrowed: (could also fit the old category) My future SIL loaned me her grandmother's engagement ring to wear.Blue: My engagement ring, and my wedding band were both sapphires.I did not have the sixpence in my shoe.

OMG- I have been trying to resize my pic and make it work for an hour! I've been on Photobucket and all this... geez.. Thanks! lol

salt78 · October 2009

Ahhh much better.

thesuninherhead · October 2009

You know, I meant to do this, but totally forgot the blue. I had something old (my dress), something new (my hairpiece and jewellery), something borrowed (family item- sentimental handkerchief that I carried down the aisle), but I completely forgot to add in the something blue, and only realised last week when someone else asked about this! Clearly H and I are now doomed.

Mine kind of came together unexpectedly, but I'll have:New: dress/shoes/pretty much everything but the old, borrowed and blue

Old: the pearl necklace that has been passed down from my great-grandma (I may wear as a bracelet)Borrowed: the sash from my mom's wedding dress to wrap around my bouquet (that's seriously all I can do with it - the woman was tiny!!)Blue: antique aquamarine/sapphire earrings from my other grandmother, and also an old poetry book with a blue velvet cover that we're doing a reading from
