Something old..something new..

emsbet

I hadn't even thought about this.
Like everyone else I have a new dress, will probably get a blue garter but I haven't a clue what I would have a borrowed and old.....
I saw this and thought it was quite cute http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260620596439&var=560008268954&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
only it has the sixpence for your shoe (or attached to your garter) as the something old too.... I think old has to be something else?

I may see if my Grandmother has an old bracelet I could borrow....

Wore a ring on my right hand that I've worn for years as old

old - ??
new - my dress
borrowed - probably my sister's tiara
blue - garter

For those struggling on borrowed, what about borrowing a hair grip or something simple from someone? I lent one to my sister for her wedding, and we just popped it in her hair at the last moment. As it was just one more, it wasn't noticable, as she'd been really struggling with something borrowed that would work with her outfit. She made sure she gave it back to me later so that it would could as borrowed!

well i was struggling on the borrowed thing- so have got my cbm on the case- she is going to see if she has either got a charm, that i could put on my garter, or something to put in or around my bouquet. so hopefully i am sorted

I'm totally struggling with this:

Old - nothing. Except me. Do I count? My shoes are ex-display. Would that do?

New - easy, dress, bouquet, tiara, veil

Borrowed - no idea

blue - again, no idea. My engagement ring is tanzanite, but that's a bit more purple. Maybe I should get a garter or some blue pants.

My mum has offered to lend me her pearls which would be considered old and borrowed but I'm not sure how they'll go with my dress.

sixpence - given to me as part of my engagement present by a friend.
