"Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue"

“Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue”.


Is it for you?


This timeless tradition is a great way for couples to add a special touch of sentimentality to their special day. To put it simply, the idea behind this tradition is for the bride to carry something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue for good luck. The something old symbolizes the bride’s connection to her past, the something new symbolizes her hope for the future, the something borrowed represents borrowed happiness from a happily married friend or relative, and the something blue is a sign of purity and love.


When it comes to selecting the items for this tradition, the possibilities are endless. There are so many creative and unique ways to incorporate each item into the bride’s look. For something old, a piece of jewelry or a locket of the bride’s grandmother’s can be a great option.



For something new, a brand new pair of shoes or a special piece of jewelry can work perfectly. For something borrowed, a piece of jewelry or a handkerchief from a happily married friend or family member can be a great way of bringing a little extra luck. And for something blue, a blue ribbon or a small blue charm can be a great finishing touch. At the end of the day, the “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue” tradition is a special way for couples to remember their past, look forward to the future, and bring a little extra luck on their big day.
