    Old - We used my mom's wedding band for the Jewish ceremony.  It requires a plain gold band that fits on the index finger, not ring finger.  Also my shoes (not really that old, about a couple years) and nail polish

    Borrowed - pearl bracelet from my maid of honor

    Blue - underwear and ribbon on the garter

    New was everything else - dress, veil, jewelry, hair pins

    The only thing I had was something borrowed- I wore my friend's earrings that she wore in her wedding.

    I'm late but whatev

    Old and borrowed: my grandmothers diamond bracelet and earrings

    New: dress

    Blue: underwear. Funny story, I didn't have my something blue til 2 days before so I went to the mall with my dad and I had one of those coupons for free underwear from VS and the only option in blue that qualified for the free pair were straight granny panties. In retro spect I should have paid $10 for something cuter

    Wow that was pretty lack luster, some of you guys got creative.
