I don't know what to borrow!!

Really my something old is a broach from my great grandmother that my mother gave me.

My something borrowed is a "Stairway to Heaven" necklace and some diamond (or diamond like) earrings that my G'Mom is letting me borrow.

Mercedes, I'm in the same boat, I don't know what to borrow, I don't even have a something old. My grandmother was going to let me borrow one of her old necklaces, but it just doesn't go with the dress. I don't know what to do.. not too many heirlooms in my family either.

I thought it had to be something on you ... well in that case it opens a whole lot of ideas. Thanks JLW.

I borrowed earrings from a friend who couldn't make it to the wedding. They were also the earring she wore for her wedding.

I am a planner and from what I have noticed thus far in my career is that its always nice to borrow something from a grandmother, mother, sister or a girlfriend you are very close to. Borrow something they wore in their wedding: a garter (but don't throw the garter, have a separate garter to throw), a hanker-chief (give this to your maid of honor or carry it with your bouquet and hold onto it when you hand off your bouquet to your maid of honor), any piece of jewelry (a necklace or earrings that matches the style of your dress and your personal style), a hair clip (if you wear your hair up), or a veil (if it matches your dress of course!). Borrowing an item from someone close to you will make your day that much more special! :)

Good Luck with your special day!
