(Above) “Jamie pinned a blue necklace owned by a relative to the inside of her gown for her something ‘old, borrowed and blue.”
(Below) “I also include my favorite “something blue” which was a bride with a short bridal gown who simply used a safety pin to attach a small blue rhinestone to the hem of her dress. So pretty, simple and elegant.”
