'Something Old, Something New,
Something Borrowed, Something Blue'
The phrase "something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" was originally a Victorian tradition and is recognized today as a modern wedding superstition.
“Something old” represents the connection the bride has to her family.
“Something new” is a symbol of the new direction in which the brides life is heading. It typically is a representation of success and good luck.
“Something borrowed” is a piece with sentimental meaning or from someone incredibly close to the bride. It represents the love friends and family have for the new couple and their willingness to help if ever they should need it. Rule of thumb is that the item must be borrowed from a female relative or friend.

“Something blue” is a far older symbol than this superstition, as in Roman times blue was the color of fidelity, love, and purity.
