Your something old, new, borrowed and blue?

I know a lot of people probably aren't doing it, but if you do, what are they? For my old I'm wearing a necklace my grandma got me for my sweet 16. She's no longer with us so it's very important to me. My blue is my shoes but I'm not super sure on my borrowed or new yet.

    I borrowed my mom's pearls and my Grandma's tennis bracelet, which were both also old. My new was basically everything else (dress, shoes, hairpiece, rings, etc) and my blue was my engagement ring, which has a blue diamond and vinyl stickers for the bottom of my shoes that said "once upon a time".

    Borrowed: .... not sure on this one... hoping my mom will come through with something. If not, I might snip a piece of her wedding dress and somehow incorporate it.

    Blue: my engagement ring is a blue sapphire and i plan on wearing sapphire earrings and a necklace (also, i'm going to use my dog's blue tag in my bouquet)

    I did it. It was very important that I did. However, I did mine all in one! For example: Somthing borrowed, old, and blue was a braclet my Grandma let me wear! Something new was the other jewelry I wore on that day plus my wedding attire!

    Borrowed / Old - moms jewelry

    New / Blue - shoes

    Is it cheating to have one item serve multiple purposes *insert laughing/crying emoji*
