Where did the ‘something blue’ wedding tradition come from?
If you’re wondering where the ‘something blue’ wedding tradition came from, it’s said to have derived from the old English rhyme “Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, a sixpence in your shoe.” It was believed that brides wearing something blue would be protected from the Evil Eye, as the colour blue stands for purity, love and fidelity.
“Crafted in 9ct white gold and glistening with your every move, our Dance by Beaverbrooks pendants are the perfect birthstone gift for a loved one who likes to sparkle with a touch of colour.” - Lorna, Head of Diamonds & Jewellery.
As time has gone on, this tradition has stuck and something blue wedding touches such as blue jewellery, blue shoes or even blue flowers are increasingly popular. For us, you can’t go wrong with something blue jewellery, like a beautiful pendant, earrings or bracelet. Our beautiful blue jewellery pieces will tick ‘something new’ off your list too. We’ll leave it to you to decide if you want a sixpence in your shoe!
So, who gives the bride something blue? According to tradition, the bride is given her something blue from someone close to her. But we love the idea of self-gifting your something blue - in the form of wedding jewellery, of course!
