There is a very famous wedding tradition “something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue” which is derived from the old English rhyme. It indicates the four good luck charms that a bride should include in her wedding outfit or carry with her on her wedding day. In the rhyme, something old represents continuity, something new symbolizes optimism for the future, something borrowed signifies borrowed happiness and something blue represents love, purity and fidelity.
