I've never really been a big proponent of the whole 'something blue' tradition, but more and more people keep asking me what mine will be that it has started to get me thinking. Is this a superstition or notion of good luck that I will want to incorporate into my big day? Someone even suggested blue cake dye to me. Who wants to eat a blue cake?!
It all seems a bit silly, but there has to be a good reason why everyone in the bridal world finds it to be so important. I haven't quite made my mind up about the whole thing, but in the meantime I'm having fun finding cute and creative ways to tie it all in to my big day. Accessories, nail polish, shower dress, flowers, lingerie... I'm liking where this is going.
But I will tell you, those Blue English Country plates have caught my eye for a while although don't exactly go with the theme of my wedding decor.
Is this something to consider or to skip?? I can't decide.

I must have that Milly dress! Everything about it is just fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI had mine and Spencer's monogram embroidered into the inside of my dress in light blue, it was an easy, meaningful something blue.
ReplyDelete@Alex {Things That Sparkle}, I like that- my Mom's original engagement ring was a sapphire so maybe I will wear that :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with you about being on the fence about the whole "something blue" thing. In the end I had blue "I do" Hanky Pankys and my garter was embroidered with my new initials in blue stitch.
ReplyDeletethere's something to be said for traditions, but don't let them stand in the way of your vision...i was lucky enough to be gifted a sapphire and diamond ring a few hours before walking down the aisle (big brothers are the best)! can't wait to see what you decide. xo
ReplyDeleteMy only something blue was a garter- actually same one you have here and I ended up forgetting to put it on so I guess I dont believe in the superstitions!
