What was your...

Former brides, what was your:
Something old?
Something new? (dont' say dress/shoes)
Something borrowed?
Something blue? (is this just to rhyme?)

I have an idea for something blue, but what did you do?
Anything you did at your wedding or have seen at weddings that you thought was just amazing?

  1. Something knew: a pair of earrings that my Dad gave me on our wedding day.
    Something borrowed: My grandmother's rosary draped in my bouquet.
    Something blue: my Godmother made me a sixpence made from blue material; I put it in my shoe. All of my cousins have since used it.

  4. Ok, I'm ignorant...sixpence? Like a coin? In your shoe? I'm so confused!

    1. I had a sixpence too! Someone sent it to me taped to their RSVP and I put it in my shoe. Yes, it's a coin!

  5. Something Old: Earring given to me by Josh's mom a few Christmas's before.
    Something new: Undergarments! (Haha!)
    Something Borrowed: Veil
    Something Blue: Panties

    Sixpence is the last part of the poem that gets forgotten. I did not have one. You can order then online. The tradition is for your FATHER to stick the sixpence in your left shoe....or is it right? I forget.

    The last wedding I was in, we forgot the sixpence, so we found a penny from the year the bride was born and used that!
