something old: A diamond bracelet from MIL that my SIL also wore at her wedding. It was a gift to someone in MIL's family and passed down. I believe it was made in the 1940s.

something new: My dress, shoes, jewelry, veil, etc.

Something borrowed: My mother's cameo broach that she bought in Italy. I had it pinned to my bouquet (pic here: http://photova.smugmug.com/Weddings/Elizabeth-and-Craig/12297374_Zv2Ws#877537485_8JZjB)

something blue: I bought bobby pins from someone on etsy that had blue pearls attached to the end. They were scattered all througout my hair.

kayakrunhike · September 2010

I really wasn't planning on doing this, but it ended up (mostly) happening out of sheer circumstance.

old- Little pendant from my mom's bouquet. I didn't want to do it, but she would have been crushed if I hadn't. It wasn't worth the fight.

new- dress, shoes, bracelet, etc.

borrowed- bff's necklace from her wedding.

blue- nothing blue.

ishandwhatnot · September 2010

Old-still trying to find something
New-dress, veil, shoes, etc
Borrowed--most likely a bracelet.
Blue--Undies, Garter and possibly toenail polish

Do you think my something old & borrowed could be the same thing? or is that bad luck for the tradition?

cindylou3 · September 2010

Something old: A handkerchief that belonged to my grandma. It was also very sentimental because she passed away a year and a half before my wedding.
Something new: dress, shoes, veil, etc.
Something borrowed: Earrings that my Matron of Honor wore in her wedding 3 years prior.
Something blue: My garter, my flowers, my bridesmaids, etc. (our colors were blue and yellow!)

knwerner006 · September 2010

My friends actually handled all of this for me, without me knowing!

Something Old: Earrings that my mother-in-law made from a necklace that belonged to her mother, which worked out really well because I didn't have a set pair planned. Handkerchief from my paternal grandfather who passed away in 2005, I held it with my bouquet and it came in mighty handy during the ceremony. Cuff links that belonged to my maternal grandfather who passed away in 2006, I ended up putting these in my dress...sounds silly, but they were right next to my heart the whole time.

Something New: Dress, shoes, and cute clutch my friends bought me that matched my dress.

Something Borrowed: My best friend that lives in LA couldn't make it to the wedding, and we have this inside joke with little kids toothbrushes. So, she sent one of hers that I'd had at my house forever and had just recently sent back to her. I kept it in the clutch.

Something Blue: Cinderella chapstick! My friends all know that I'm obsessed with Disney's Cinderella, so they put blueberry chapstick in the clutch. I wore it underneath my actual lipstick.

All of these items were in the white clutch my friends had bought me. And they presented it to me right before I put on my dress. It was all I could do not to cry before we got started.

irisheyezfsu · September 2010

something old: great grandmother pearl necklace I recieved at my college graduation. My mom cried when she heard I plan to wear it on my wedding day.

Something blue: probably garter or I will drink a blue martini before I get ready like my aunt did and have a blue tongue haha.

Something new: dress etc.

Something borrowed: haven't figured out this one yet might borrow something from my best friend from her wedding I was in.

I really want to have sixpence or fivepence which I will probably get online.

jmkes: just tape it to your flip flop.
