    I personally didn't do that...I actually didn't even think about it. I had a lot of stress right before the wedding with my father...long story.

    But, my friend is getting married next week. This is what she is doing:

    Something New: Dress

    Something Old: Necklace

    Something Borrowed: I'm letting her borrow my headpiece from my wedding

    Something Blue: The garter

    Well Im not married yet.. but I'm looking forward to the future.. but what my sister had done for it was:

    something old: a lace hanker chief that my great grandmother and made

    something new: a silver cross necklace my ma and i got for her

    something borrowed: my earings

    something blue: she had a pair of socks that had monkeys on them and were blue trim (lol long story to that but made it all great laughs)

    and a lucky penny in her left shoe.. along with the hands of the clock facing up from 10 and 2.

    Use something from your mom - shawl, piece of jewellery for your something old (if she's divorced or unhappy in her marriage then use a close female friend).

    Something borrowed - similar to the something old, but can be from anyone.

    Something blue - why not be traditional and have blue hair ribbons as a sign of fidelity?

    Well mine is a little unique since I got married in Alaska during the very snowy cold winter month of January, but here goes:

    Something Old: my jeans

    Something new: necklace that my inlaws gave me

    Something borrowed: bracelet

    Something blue: my socks lol

    I didn't do a traditional thing because it was way too cold. I wore a sweater, jeans, snow boots. :P lol I'm from Texas so it felt doubly cold to me.

    I've been married 7 years now, but...:

    Something borrowed was my Mother's shoes.

    Something blue was the wedding dress.

    And something old was my husband lol! He's 22 years older than me.

    Old and Borrowed: The earrings my mom wore for her wedding.

    New and Blue: My friends bought me a necklace that was silver and blue.

    old: Piece of my moms old wedding dress incorporated into the lace handle of my bouquet

    new: a 2008 shiny penny (also good for a lucky charm!)

    borrowed: Silver necklace from my best friend

    blue: blue pedicure (it was a summer beach wedding. I almost went with a small blue toering as well. )

    Something old- My earrings

    Something blue- The whole rest of my bridal party.

    Something borrowed- Underwear. I know it sounds funny but when I was trying on my dress at home I was wearing a pair of black and white striped underwear and my mom noticed the stripes showed through so she lent me a pair of tan underwear she had for me to wear.
