MemberHi Bees.. I orginally wanted to do the something new, used,blue and borrowed. I just never got around to it. I hate superstitions.. Did you do this tradition? Do you believe in it? I just do not want bad luck in my marriage!
MemberButtercup014: I wanted to. I had the new and the blue, but never got around to the other 2 lol….ooops! We have only been married a month, but I am not worried. I have always been a firm believer that you make your own luck!!
MemberI don’t believe it’ll affect my luck in any way, but I like the tradition.
MemberI am.
New – dress, veil
Borrowed – my mom’s pearls
Old – wrapping an old hankerchief around my bouquet. My mom was originally going to give it to my aunt, but she recently passed. Also using my grandpa’s tie clip in my boquet
Blue – undies!
MemberI am, just because I want the full “bridal experience,” so I think it will be a fun tradition. Definitely not due to superstition.
So far I only have borrowed (my cousin’s tiara) and blue (my Tiffany bracelet that has a Tiffany blue heart on it). For new I think I might do earrings, which I haven’t bought yet. Old, I will probably use something from my grandparents.
MemberI am for fun, I dont think itd be bad luck not to or anything. I just enjoy doing all the little traditions 🙂
Old/Borrowed FMILs diamond earrings
New bracelet
and I just found my something blue today! The sweetest aquamarine bezel to wear on my right hand the day of. It has a beautiful cut, so sparkly and delicate. Im very excited to finally wear my dress and shoes too!
MemberI am, but just cuz it happens to work out that way.
New – dress
Borrowed – my sister-in-law’s veil
Used – jewelry
Blue – blue asian parasol that I just happened to have!

MemberI’m going to do it all in my brooch bouquet. I have brooches borrowed, new, old, and blue.
MemberButtercup014: I did it but purely for fun! I’m not superstitious in the slightest. I happened to have everything but borrowed anyway (including the sixpence) so I was lucky enough that my Mum offered up a couple of heirlooms to borrow which I pinned under my dress.
MrsBuesleBee: That’s such a cute ring!!
MemberI’m doing it for fun!
Old/Borrowed – I’ll be wearing my grandmother’s wedding band on my right hand. She and my grandfather were together until he passed away. My mother currently wears it on her right hand, so I’ll be borrowing it from her.
New – Dress, shoes – whole ensemble, really!
Blue – I bought a custom patch that is going to be sewn into the lining of my dress with my and my fiance’s names sewn into it.
MemberDid you do this tradition? Nope!
Do you believe in it? Nope!
I just do not want bad luck in my marriage! I’ve been married almost 38 years.
MemberMy best friend is getting married in May and is having her two sisters as her bridesmaids. She really wanted to have me and my other friend in her bridal party but logistically it wasn’t feasable. Instead, she has asked us to wear blue dresses and we will be her “something blue”.
I think it’s a super cute idea.
(her mum is her something old – haha!)
MemberMemberNew: my dress.
Borrowed: my sister’s diamond studs.
Old: my mum’s gloves
Blue: Forgotten!!!!
Memberlove this tradition, but not concerned with superstition.
old: mulitple things, including the stones in my e-ring and my wedding jewelry
new: shoes, undies, dress
borrowed: my wedding jewelry is borrowed from a family friend that deals in antique jewelry
blue: the blue sapphire cross i inherited from my grandmother, which i will pin inside the bust of my dress
sixpence: hopefully borrowing the one my sister used in her wedding in 1998, otherwise one i buy off the internet
