Hi,
Any ideas for something old, new, borrowed and blue? Something unusual or unique? Any ideas would really be appreciated, though. Thank you x

Old, borrowed and blue - My late Nana’s sapphire engagement ring my Mum lent me.
New - My outfit - Dress, veil, tiara and shoes.

Old - my grandmother's eternity ring.
New - my dress? My shoes? My false nails?
Borrowed - a bracelet lent by an aunt who had worn it at my cousin's (her daughter) wedding. I was very touched she offered it.
Blue - said cousin bought me a lucky horseshoe with blue ribbon. And I also had a garter with blue ribbon (Harry Potter-themed. I'm a Ravenclaw!).

I also had a silver sixpence in a photo locket attached to my bouquet that my mum gave me before she died

Forgot to say, blue was also my shoes, garter and knickers!

My little list consisted of;
Old; engagement ring (believed 1910/1920s) and antique sapphire and diamond earrings DH gave me as a wedding gift
New; dress etc
Borrowed; a silver sixpence taped into my shoe. Mil borrowed it for her wedding from her mum, who borrowed it from her mum etc etc.
Blue; I had one tiny pale blue lisianthus in my otherwise purely white/greenery bouquet. Also the earrings again!
