    Sorry if this is in the wrong category.

    My something borrowed was going to be my late mother's silver watch which my OH found in a box the other day. Do you think its ok to wear a watch on your wedding day? I wear a watch every single day and feel odd without it but looking at past brides photos etc brides never seem to wear one.

    Am i breaking some wedding ettiquette? or does it really not matter? x

    I wore my watch. I had to otherwise I would of had a watch mark from the sun. It was a nice watch though with diamantes around the face. Think maybe not if it's a huge big waterproof thing.

    I've been stressed everytime I've worn a watch as I'm constantly checking the time as I like things to be at right times etc. I won't be wearing one on my day as I'd like to be relaxed.

    i wear my watch every day and i would quite like to wear it on the day but as its covered in diamantes it would probably catch on the detail on my dress. so might not wear it x

    i think it depends on the watch, i wear a chunky rose gold one so wouldn't go with my dress but if i had a small delicate one i'd consider it xx

    As for looking at it, I don't think I ever did until people started heading off and I looked to realise it was almost midnight

    I don't think it matters if you wear a watch. I won't be wearing one and neither will my BMs so I really hope the wedding coordinator comes to fetch us when its time to head down for the ceremony.

    I'm not wearing a watch, but I think with it being silver would be perfect, I would wear it. X
