Old, New, Borrowed, Blue...

Something Old...
My Something Old was my brooch bouquet.  It was made by my Aunt/Godmother Kathy.  I started collecting brooches from the moment we were engaged.  Some of them came from antique stores and others were gifts from friends and family members.  It was really special to have brooches from my Grandma and Great-Grandmas so I could have a way to remember them on my wedding day.  The pink butterfly was to represent my dad.

Something New...
My Something New was my hot pink Manolo Blahnik shoes.  I added "I Do" to the bottom (I also added "She's Mine" to the bottom of John's shoes).

And...
My other Something New was new perfume.  I don't use it everyday, but when I do it reminds me of my wedding day.

Something Borrowed...
My Something Borrowed was my purse.  It is the purse my mom used when she and my dad got married.

And...
 My other Something Borrowed was my earrings.  They belong to my friend Jessica, who wore them on her wedding day.  My friend Ashley (who was married 4 weeks before us) also wore them.

Something Blue...
My Something Blue was this blue piece of fabric my mom had embroidered with our names and wedding date that was stitched to the inside of my dress.  The fabric came from my Aunt/Godmother Kathy's bridesmaid dress from my parents' wedding.
