Something Blue, Old, Borrowed And New For Your Bridal Accessories


When planning for your bridal accessories, you do not want to forget about something blue, something old and something new. Although this is a tradition that has been in existence for centuries, many brides today forget about the tradition. Even if you have a themed wedding or a casual wedding, you still want to have these three things in your procession. For something old, many brides have something that is handed down from family member to family member such as a heirloom or just something that has sentimental value. Some brides will where something from their mothers or grandmothers. 


Something old might be the wedding dress, handkerchief, necklace or other jewelry or something else. Bridal accessories also include something new. For something new, you have your wedding dress, your shoes, your headpiece or anything else you may have brought. This is actually the easiest bridal accessories since you need these things anyways. For something blue, you might choose a garter. If blue does not match your wedding color scheme, the garter is always a great way to have something blue. If you color scheme includes the color blue, then you will already have your color. 


Something borrowed for your wedding can be open to anything as long as it matches with your color scheme. You might borrow a necklace, bracelet, earrings or even a wedding veil from a family member. You might even borrow something such as a little trinket that you can attach to your bridal bouquet without taking away from the bouquet itself. Many brides also borrow a ring or a wedding band from their mothers to wear on the other hand as something borrowed. These old traditions are still strong when weddings take place more so than any other wedding tradition. 


The meaning behind something old is that you are uniting in marriage and leaving behind the old. You are making a new life with the man you love and will share eternity. Something new is that your union will start a new life and new adventures. Something borrowed symbolizes someone or something that you respect or admire. Something blue then represents nothing. It was said that having something blue came because it rhymed with something new. The saying and tradition stills stands even though it has no symbolic meaning when you are getting married. As you can see, except for something blue, everything means or symbolizes something on you wedding day. 


Other bridal accessories are also needed such as the jewelry, make up, wedding favors, cake knifes and invitations and thank you cards. You always want to have everything you need far ahead of time to make sure there are no last minute surprises. You are going to have enough to worry about and think about the week for the special day without worrying about if you have everything you need. The day of you wedding, you will have all your bridal accessories including something new, old, borrowed and blue to take with to the area where you will be getting ready.

Choosing The Right Bridal Accessories And Wedding Veils


Photo by Cindy Canham-Pitt

The right bridal accessories and wedding veils are important. You do not want your veil to take away from your dress as well as you do not want your accessories to take away from the look of the dress and the veils. There are so many different types of wedding veils to choose from when you buy your dress. You may want a shorter veil, a longer veil or a headpiece veil. Whatever wedding veil you choose as a part of your bridal accessories will accent your hair as well as your other accessories and dress. 



Many brides who have a traditional wedding with all the thrills and frills might have long train on the dress with a longer veil that flows into the train of the dress. This is beautiful when properly laid out by the bridesmaids. Some brides choose a shorter veil when they have wedding dress with a longer train. The wedding veils are especially elegant today and have different styles to choose from when you look around. Many years ago and still today, some brides still prefer the veil that covers the face until the ceremony is complete. This however, is rare today with so many different beautiful designs. 


The headpiece wedding veils are more popular today as part of the bridal accessories. The designs are beautiful and elegant and look extraordinary with any type of dress. The two most important things to keep in mind about the wedding veil is first, where you are getting married and the wedding dress in regards to style and color. Since there are so many different lengths, the dress you have depends on the type of veil you can wear that does not take away from the beauty of the dress and yourself. When you choose a headpiece, you can choose between a headpiece with a veil or one without the veil. 


If you bridal accessories includes hair combs or hair clips, you might want to take them along when you choose your wedding veil. Not all wedding veils look the same when these accessories are added. You can also choose from many different colors when looking for the perfect wedding veil. Today, white is not the only color to wear when you say your wedding vows. Brides have worn blue, black, red, white and pastel colors. You might even want a white wedding dress with a pastel wedding veil. 


Weddings and bridal accessories have evolved over the years and what was once acceptable is now replace with more modern colors and styles. The wedding veils are just another way to accent the dress. Whether you wear a veil or a headpiece, you will always want to remember that you are accenting your hair and the dress. This holds true for the flowers as well. If you have a veil that has a hairclip with flowers, you will want it to match your bouquet. After all, bridal accessories should compliment the bride and flow together nicely. Your photographer will attest to this as well.
