Something Old, Something New….Pearl Bridal Jewellery

Weddings are renowned for being a day full of traditions and good luck charms. From wearing a white dress, throwing confetti, the bride throwing the bouquet for the single female guests to catch, or tying shoes to the bumper of the newlywed's car, these traditions are followed by hundreds of couples every year. Ensuring the bride and groom do not see each other before the ceremony, being greeted by a chimney sweep, and carrying the bride over the threshold of the newlywed's home are all traditions which are believed to bring luck and prosperity to the happy couple.

The very familiar tradition of the bride wearing ‘Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, and a silver sixpence in your shoe,' is still followed by brides today (although the last line is often forgotten!) The rhyme is thought to have originated in Victorian times, and honouring this tradition is believed to symbolise good luck for the bride.

•'Something old' - an old garter, or a piece of family jewellery or an accessory is often used.
•'Something new' represents future health, happiness and success for the bride & groom.
•'Something borrowed' could be a small trinket or accessory borrowed from family or a friend. It must be returned to ensure good luck.
•'Something blue' - it was in ancient Israel, where the bride wore a blue ribbon as a symbol of her fidelity, that the custom of wearing 'something blue' originated.
Good wealth was wished for by placing 'a silver sixpence in your shoe'.
