I am curious to hear what others are using or have used as their something old/new/borrowed/blue.  So far, I have blue covered...

Warm regards,
Nico

    New: everything else...
    Borrowed: Again my mom's veil

    I am not all that traditional either, but I love the pure emotion, the family and friends, laughter, joy.  These four little things are so powerful.
