It is traditional for the bride to wear something old,
something new, something borrowed something blue.
This tradition dates back to Victorian times and the meanings
behind these good luck symbols are as follows.
Something
old represents the link with the bride's family and
the past. Many brides choose to wear a piece of family
jewellery or a mother's or grandmother's wedding gown
or headdress.
Something
new represents good fortune and success in the bride's
new life.The wedding gown is often chosen as this item.
Something
borrowed is to remind the bride that friends and family
will be there for her when help is required. This can
be anything from a lace handkerchief to a piece of jewellery,
or part of the outfit.
Something
blue is the symbol of faithfulness and loyalty. The
bride often wears a blue garter.
A silver
sixpence is often worn in the bride's shoe and is
to wish wealth for the bride.
