    A lucky sixpence in a bride's shoe is supposed to be a symbol of love, happiness and goodluck and yeah it should be in your right shoe!! I have my sixpence but don't want to put it in my shoe until the day of the wedding incase I bring bad luck on myself lol but I can't imagine it's going to be too comfortable xx.

    Old - my wedding dress as I'm buying it preloved
    New - veil, stockings and tiara
    Borrowed - Diamante choker from my aunt
    Blue - Millwall FC garter

    I'm gonna attempt to somehow tape the sixpence to the top of the inside of my shoe so I dont have to walk on it! This will be practiced on lots of occasions using a penny lol x

    New: dress
    Old: sixpence that's 430 yrs old....think that's old enough and engagement ring given diamond is naturally very old so cheating there.
    Borrowed: a lace handkerchief from nan tucked into garter
    Blue: underwear is ivory with blue roses on it.

    cant wait to be Mrs Evans less than 3 weeks woooo
    start weight 10st 1.5 lbs
    weight now 8st 4.5 lbs
    total loss to date: 24.5 lbs now need to maintain!
