Have you ever stopped to think about the significance of the term "Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue"? I hear the phrase literally almost every weekend but for some reason I have never thought about where this phrase came from or what it really means. That being said, I decided to do a little bit of research, to at least see that the meaning was. I found quite a few different takes on the phrase but I have the summed up meaning below, for each point.

Something Old is a symbol of the bride's family, past and tradition. 

Something New is a symbol of the future and optimism for the new married couple. 

Something Borrowed is a symbol of "borrowed happiness" from a past bride to a new bride. 

Something Blue is a symbol of love, purity and fidelity.

I would love to hear from all of you on what your plans are for your Something Old, New, Borrowed and Blue OR feel free to tell me what you ended up doing at your wedding (if you already had your special day!) Leave your comments - all of your ideas could help future brides make there day a little more special. <3
