The oldest written reference is in an 1871 issue of St. James Magazine.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Something Old is meant to represent the best of a couple\u2019s non-married life and the intention to bring that into their marriage. This often includes a piece of jewelry that would have been previously worn by the bride\u2019s mother, grandmother, or aunt.<br \/>\u2022 Something New, being that of the new life the couple will be starting together and includes everything from new clothing to an accessory.<br \/>\u2022 Something Borrowed is a bit more superstitious. This would be an item borrowed from someone who is happily married and, therefore, passing on that good luck. It could be anything from a necklace, bracelet or even a hair clip.<br \/>\u2022 Something Blue is a colour that is known to be representative of \u201cfidelity and love\u2019s purity.\u201d It was also a popular colour to wear prior to the white wedding dress trend. Tavares says it\u2019s meant to represent an item to \u201cbaffle the evil eye.\u201d This could be the garter, or even shoes.<br \/>\u2022 A sixpence in your shoe dates back to the Victorian times, where the father of the bride would place a sixpence into the brides left shoe, symbolizing good luck, longevity and prosperity for her life. This one seems to have slipped away from many modern day weddings, but some grooms have had cufflinks featuring coins to subtly carry on the tradition.<\/p>\n<p>Wedding traditions are best celebrated in gorgeous venues, surrounded by your loving family and friends. The themes may vary from wedding to wedding, but the tradition remains the same and keeps us connected to the past, in addition to building memories of the present.<\/p>\n<p>And at Granny Mouse Country House &amp; Spa, the event planners &amp; coordinators make sure that these traditions turn into lasting memories that are cherished for a lifetime.
