Something Blue- Cloud 9’s Inspiring Ideas on this Wedding Tradition
The age-old saying “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, and a sixpence in her shoe” has inspired an infamous wedding tradition. While this is an old-school tradition dates back many centuries, we love to work with brides who incorporate their “something blue” token in unique ways. Here are some of our favorite something blue wedding tradition ideas.
Haeley’s Electric Blue Cowgirl Boots
The cutest reception look for our country brides looking for a way to tie blue into one of their wedding looks. Haeley danced the night away in these show-stopping cowgirl boots!
These boots added a pop of color in to Haeley’s detail shots too which we love!
Anne’s Saphire Ring & Blue Ring Box
Anne’s sapphire ring from her grandmother doubled up for her “something borrowed” and “something blue.” It’s so beautiful getting to see brides incorporate family heirlooms into their special day!
Tatum & Cole’s Blue Details
Tatum opted for small details to honor the “something blue” tradition. This ribbon on Tatum & Cole’s invitation is a perfect way to incorporate this tradition! (Peep the ring box in the corner of the photo as well!)
Another form of a “blue ribbon” Tatum added to her wedding decor. Small details are just the best!
Mandy’s Blue Bridesmaid Dresses
Bring your bridesmaids in on the traditions and have them pick some lovely blue bridesmaid dresses!
Jeena & John’s Blue Accessories
Jeena’s bracelet is perfect for the bride who wants their “something blue” to be subtle, yet chic. Not to mention, this is a great token to keep as a potential family heirloom.
A creative way to bring the groom in on this timeless tradition! A blue bowtie is a fun detail the groom/groomsmen can wear if they’re looking to switch it up from the same old wedding attire.
We love getting to see how our couples incorporate this timeless tradition into their wedding day. The best part of your wedding day is being able to customize it to your and your partner’s personalities. We love how our couples chose to do their “something blue” token in creative ways that showed a little bit of who they are. We hope we gave you some out-of-the-box ideas for your “something blue.”
