something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue...
The New, obviously, is my wedding gown. The Blue, obviously, will be my garter, given to me by my friends during my bachelorette party in two weeks.
But... and can this be any more beautiful? My mother... my mother is providing me with both the Old, and the Borrowed:
On my wedding day I will be wearing a simple white gold necklace with a tiny white diamond pendant, and fitting small white gold diamond earrings. Those items were given to my Mom on her first Mother's Day, a few months after my birth, by my Dad, in honor of me. She is wearing the necklace every single day ever since I can remember.
This necklace will be around my neck on the most important day of my life. This is so beautiful, the thought alone almost made me cry, when she told me that it is her wish that I wear this personal piece of herself.
I will wear it with all daughterly pride, and the knowledge behind the meaning of this necklace... knowing what it means to my mother. It will be the single most important accessory of my bridal ensemble, and I am very excited to see myself in it when I prepare to become the wife of the love of my life.
