True...I wonder if the chief concierge is still looking for it, LOL, that's the last thing I heard from Dreams!

Does that makes any sense?

something new: dress, shoes, veil
something borrowed: ?
something blue: ? ummmm....Jay's beautiful blue eyes?
something old: My Grandma's ivory beaded purse
Makes sense to me! Blue eyes...cute. And I love that you used Grandma's purse :o)

I totally know what you're saying Karen, and I kinda did the same thing. I didn't intentionally do the o.n.b.b. thing, but I guess it happened anyway.

old: earrings...although not technically "old" I did wear them several times before the wedding, and they were one of my first wedding purchases

new: shoes, purse, dress, underwear

borrowed: bouquet starfish (thanks TammyB!)

blue: garter (and starfish)

I haven't really thought about it yet, but this is what I'm guessing:

 

something new: dress, veil, etc.

something borrowed: huh.gif (ask one of my sisters for earrings maybe)

something blue: probably a garter

something old: my dad's pendant pinned inside my dress

I thought I would bump this for the newbies (and myself)!

 

something new: dress, veil, etc.

 

something borrowed: We have a traveling brooch that gets pinned to the slip. It came about when a friend was getting married and freaked out when she realized that she didn't have anything old/borrowed/blue. We went and scoured the neighborhood yard sales that morning, hair in rollers, until we found this rhinestone pin. It was so much fun!

 

something blue: I want to have an E embroidered on the lining of my dress. My grandmother's name started with an E so it will be extra special.

 

something old: my grandmother's hankerchief from her wedding

Something Old: a handkerchief from my mother-in-law that both she and her mother had at their weddings

 

Something New: Dress, jewellery, contact lenses rolleyes.gif

 

Something Borrowed: dangly pearl earrings

 

Something Blue: garter; underwear (these were actually aqua blue with pink lace around the edges, both of my wedding colours); the ribbon around my bouquet

Erin, that's a great Blue :) But I do like the emnroidered initial inside the dress, I was thinking about getting the date embroidered inside mine, and I love that you might use your grandma's (and yours!) initial :)

Something new - dress, jewelry, shoes...

 

Something blue - garter w/ cute starfish on it

 

Something borrowed - friend's rhinestone flip flop charm attached to my garter.

 

Something old - an antique locket my BM gave me (which is also blue) that has a picture of my mom on one side & me & my mom together on the other side. My mom passed away recently so it means a lot to me. It attaches to my garter too. She also gave me a chain to put in on after the wedding.
