Something Old: silver sixpence
Something New: dress & jewelry
Something Borrowed: same silver sixpence (altough I lost it after the wedding so still haven't given it back )
Something Blue: stitching on the dress and jewelry

Very economical

I was also told by the older relatives that the rhyme finishes "with a silver sixpence in her shoe" but I didn't bother with it in the shoe

Something old : geez I can't remember - what the hell WAS my something old?

Something borrowed : my mam's necklace
Something blue : garter

And a silver sixpence in her shoe?

I did them, can't remember what they were though!
I remember the something blue was a little blue ribbon on my garter. I bought a sixpence from my Dad's year of birth and gave it to him later as a little memento.

And a silver sixpence in her shoe?

I'd not heard it before but all the older relatives were adamant!
