Something:-
Old - A piccie of my Dad in a small frame attached to my bouquet (idea nicked from PrincessDonna)
New - My Dress
Borrowed- Going to borrow a dainty gold watch, as I wear it on my right hand anyway, and don't want my tan mark to be too obvious!
Blue - Haven't a clue
And never heard of this 6 pence thing before reading this, could be uncomfortable, sure I've got one of my Grandad's but might not use it!2nd June 2012

Old: A necklace, the first thing OH bought me
New: Just about everything
Borrowed: The only thing not sorted, a bit lame but I am planning on giving the hair grips back to my hairdresser at the mo!
Blue: A small bow at the top of my hold ups and also one of my school name tags (the ones you sew into clothes) which has my name on in blue writing (the last time I can use it). Maybe if I give that back to my mum it will be borrowed too.MFW 2025 No. 7 £1130/£1200

I'm hoping to do this, but I'm worried about losing my something borrowed by dancing too excitedly! Any ideas?
I think I'm going to make a garter with a blue ribbon, my wedding ring will be old (my nan's), new can be the dress, I love the double sided tape idea for the sixpence but I'm going to wear flats! So I might try to get one with a hole in and sew it to the shoe...???0 -
My old is probably going to be a photo of my grandparents which ill attach to my bouquet (and thank you to this thread as ive just remembered to look up the photo charm im going to put it in and it has money off so i think ill order that now- its this one:

I have just ordered it, but with ivory ribbon, an ivory pearl and a pink bead- I did consider a blue bead but my colour is pink so i have ordered the pink but may see if I can sneak a blue bead on somewhere so its there but not noticeable!!0
