Wedding Traditions: Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue

The tradition of having something old, something new, something borowed, and something blue can be dated back to 1898 in an old English Rhyme. The original rhyme also included the line “sixpence in her shoe”. Many of todays brides still follow this tradition and have one of each thing in their wedding. Something old represents continunity, new represents optimism for the future, something borrowed symbolizes borrowed happiness, and something blue represnets purity, love, and fidelity. What wonderful symbols to start off your new life together. No wonder brides still follow this tradition over 100 years later.

One of our brides carried a pendant with a picture of her dad around her bouquet.

Photo by: Sarahdipity photos

Not sure what to carry for your something old, new, borrowed, and blue? Here are some ideas from past brides.

OLD

Vintage accessory
Something meaningful such as a locket with pictures of parents or grandparents who have already passed away
A family heirloom

NEW

Wedding gown
Jewlery from your soon to be husband

BORROWED

Something special like your grandmother’s earrings or mom’s hairclip

BLUE

Embroider something blue into the lining of your dress( ex. wedding date or your new last name)
Shoes
Garter
Blue ribbon around your bouquet
