My 'something borrowed'

What can that be (except jewelry )?
I have my something new
something old
something blue

i didnt have my something borrowed till i got to the RH...my throw away garter.
(heres the book that goes with it!)

When i was 13 i was in my big cousins wedding and happen to catch the bo-k and then some skuzzy kid put the garter on me ( i was totally violated ) anyway i had kept the garter since that day. well when we moved.. i assumed it got 'lost' in the shuffle and couldnt seem to find it. I wanted to use that as my 'borrowed' since it was not mine and i would not be keeping it (since it was getting tossed). i was so upset that i couldnt find it. and was thinking what was i going to use.. MY mom of course had a back up plan which was one of her crosses from when she was a kid and she pinned it into my dress (this cross is going to be given to my neice who is due to be born in aug, so i did have something borrowed while i walked down the aisle) anyway... i get to the CH and my mom comes running over .. look!!! my cousin had the garter the whole time.. i had given it to her to hold on to while we moved! so i threw it on and did the garter toss!!!

after it was all over.. i passed along my borrowed garter to a friend of mine who i hope will keep this new tradition going of the borrowed garter!

wow that was way longer then i expected.. anyway my ideas are your throw away garter and or a cross pinned into your dess i did both!

Cuteeee

I am borrowing my veils (blusher and cathedral) and my reception jewelry.

My new is my dress, headpiece and shoes.

My blue are three blue ribbons to sew into dress.

I don't have an old yet though!
