Old, New, Borrowed, Blue

nic&al, 24 August, 2010 at 15:46 Posted on Planning 0 16

Hi ladies,

What are you all having as your old, new, borrowed, blue?

I have NEW jewellery

My ER is BLUE sapphires

And then I am totally stumped.

I was hoping a relative would have a brooche I could borrow and use in my bouquet but none hit the spot.

    Hello my lovely

    Mine are:

    OLD: Nan's engagement ring sewn into my dress (she left it to me when she died)

    NEW: Dress, tiara, shoes etc

    BORROWED: Mum's Tiffany earrings

    BLUE: Ribbon of my garter

    Perhaps you could have a piece of family jewellery sewn into the underskirt of your dress, or attached to the lacing of your dress (if applicable)? This could apply to borrowed or old then, or both!

    I'm going to keep some bits from my wedding so that if I have any girls when I have children they have something they can use should they wish to as their old - keeping my dress, tiara and garter so that should give them something to play with! xx

    Now I come to think of it, I have a few gaps too.....

    Old - Not sure, I was thinking my shoes as I wore them when I was a bridesmaid last year but they're not exactly old, just worn.

    New - Dress (and probably something nice underneath - sshhhh!! ?).

    Borrowed - my sister's veil and tiara.

    Blue - Not a clue!!! Although we are getting married in December so maybe I'll be blue from cold!!
