what are you all doing girls for the old tradition; something old, something new....?
i want to take this tradition on for our wedding day and i have found an old ring and dove decoration from my grandparents' wedding cake, which i am going to have stitched into my dress.
im just at a loss as to what type of things you 'borrow'. i have thought about asking my stepdad if he would be willing to let me wear my deceased mums' wedding ring on the other hand, so i feel she is near to me. i do currently wear one of my mums rings on a day to day basis but i want something a bit more special!. xx
all ive got to give to you are these 5 words tonight
Thank you for loving me, for being my eyes when i couldnt
see. for parting my lips when i couldnt breathe
thank you for loving me xxx

My old and borrowed are the same - my grans brooch, my new is my dress, my blue is my garter which has a horseshoe on it and my sixpence belonged to my dad who is no longer here. xx
I have a gorgeous husband!

I've not even thought about that yet... something else to look forward to!
marie I think that's a lovely idea with the decoration!
My gran bless her has gone and arranged to get her wedding dress cleaned and i'm not supposed to know - it's definitely not going to be happening (apart from anything else I'll never fit into a size 10) but I thought it was nice of her to think like that.
I think I'll wear the earrings and bracelet my fiance got me for our first valentines together as they're beautiful... would they be considered old enough?
New will be my dress
Borrowed I dont know about... maybe a necklace from my mum
Blue... Garter I suppose as my theme's gold/brown so I cant really have anything that's on show x

Does the blue not have to be on the bride then? So long as it's incorporated into the wedding? I think that's lovely jo x
new - dress and jewelry old - sixpence from 1572 blue - roses in garter and underwear. borrowed - lace hanky and scottish thistle broach to go in bouquet.
