What better way to bring you luck than with matching blue sets or robes with your closest friends in your bridal party. Plus it’s also something practical that can be worn again.

5. Jewelry

When it comes to adding blue jewelry to your “something blue” the options are truly endless. If you want something that stands out, you can choose a blue brooch or a statement necklace or earrings. There are also more subtle options as well- a bracelet or a dainty necklace and earrings. A major plus is if the item is a family heirloom or something you already own, as it also works for “something borrowed” or “something old.”

6. Flowers or Bouquet

An easy way to incorporate “something blue” into your wedding is with the floral arrangements. Blue flowers are gorgeous and are a great addition to any bouquet. If you don’t want blue flowers in your bouquet, you can add a blue ribbon instead.

 

7. The Groom

Who says the bride needs to wear the blue? There’s no rule saying the groom can’t be the one wearing it. Navy blue suits are very dapper. And if you don’t want to go for a full navy/blue suit, opt for a blue bow tie, pocket square or bouttonniére.

Tears are inevitable and a gorgeous handkerchief with some blue in it, is a great way to keep the tears at bay. Not only is it practical but also a way to add in something blue.

A clutch is pertinent for any bride to store all of the essentials-lipstick, phone, tissues, etc. Make your clutch pop by picking one in a shade of blue.

 

10. Vintage Blue Car

Use a vintage blue car to arrive at the ceremony or as a getaway car to leave the wedding. Adorn the car with pretty flowers and greenery. Plus it will work for something old and something blue.
