Something Old, Something New, Someting Borrowed, Something Blue....

This was my blue, everything else was new. I didn't really care about the poem.

I paid way too much for the label too, and now I have no idea what to do with it, but I loved it at the time LOL

A sixpence is equivalent to 2-3 cents in US dollars. Random factoids we learn along the way. . .

You can find silver sixpence at any coin shop and some antique shops.

I only know my something borrowed will be jewelry from my Great aunt who hoards it and my something blue might be my Alice in wonderland dress. My theme is Mad Hatter Tea Party.

I just got my sixpense from this lady on etsy and it comes in a cute little pouch that wil be comfortable in your shoe!!

The american version is "and a penny in my shoe". Usually my friends do a penny from the year they or their groom was born.

My something old was my grandma's wedding band that I wear always on my right hand.

My something new was my dress

My something borrowed was a gold civil war coin that I pinned to my bouquet, my great grandma, grandma & mom each carried it on their bouquets too

And my something blue was my VS undies with 'Bride' on them

I didn't do the pence in the shoe

You're doomed, Amy

My something old is my mom's lasso (rosary) and the coin dish the arras came in

My something new is the arras (coins)

My something borrowed are the earrings from my FSIL and bracelet from my aunt

My something blue is still being decided on by my other aunt

Not doing the "sixpense"

I put a shiny penny from the year I was getting married into my shoe (taped it at the arch where I wouldn't feel it).

1. My something old is ME!

2. My something new is my dress

3. My something borrowed...not sure yet. Got anything I can borrow? LOL

4. My something blue is the bottom of my shoes (blue by Betsey Johnson)

5. Never heard the sixpence part before so now I've got to figure out if I'm going to do that part.

1. old- the dress

2. new- veil and shoes

3. borrowed- not sure

5. sixpence- i might find a penny from the year FH was born

Something old... not sure yet.

something blue... possibly my nails?

1. The wedding ring NotFroofy gave me, inherited from her grandmother back in Wales.

2. My shoes.

3. The kiddush cup used for the blessing over wine, borrowed from a newly married friend.

4. My garter.

5. An actual British sixpence, from a time when the sixpence was actually made of almost all silver.
