Ways to Incorporate Your "Something Blue"

Ray Photography

“Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, and a sixpence in your shoe.”

We’ve all heard this rhyme or some variation of it. However, the “something blue” is probably the most commonly done part of the rhyme. It can be a beautiful touch to your wedding because there are so many ways to incorporate it. From your detail shots to shoes, your florals to your dress, there are so many different ways you can have “something blue”. In this blog, we’re going to have some of our favorites we’ve seen!

Shoes

A blue shoe or shoe with blue detailing is a beautiful way to bring in this tradition.



Jewelry

A blue necklace, bracelet, or hairpiece is simple and so elegant. (We want to see this more! We don’t even have a picture!)

Bouquet

We see brides incorporate a blue item into the stem of their bouquet. We’ve also seen this be something old or borrowed!

Mom’s dress or bridesmaids’ dresses

The most popular color dress of the mother of the groom or bride is a variation of blue…and it is always gorgeous. Make all your girls your something blue!

Detail shots

Detail shots are a great way to showcase your blue from your wedding. This could include something from your family (which is also something old or borrowed), your flowers, shoes, or jewelry.

We love seeing unique ways of including something blue. It adds a beautiful personal touch!
