The Best Wedding Advice You Ever Received

It's your day make it memorable they say, they should say it's your day and pray your make it through it. With everyone around you telling you how they did their wedding and how they got married years ago, it is hard to know what to do. If the pressure of planning the wedding in it's entirety is not making you go crazy and second guess the thought of, Vegas and Elvis signing your wedding certificate at the Little White Chappell.
Everyone seems to have and abundance of ideas for you things that they say are traditions passed down through the years, something old something new something borrow, but what wait about what you want?
My cousin actually gave me some great advice about the whole take on the
"something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" saying. I wanted
to incorporate my late mother and had something of hers that I could not wear as it was
Not anything, I could physically put on my body. my cousin made the great suggestion to
incorporate all of those things into the ceremony and the reception.
I was amazed that in my daze I didn't think about doing that, I had always thought that the only
way to truly do that tradition was to do it with the wedding dress, necklace, garder and so on.
With just scattering these things around in my wedding it made it feel more like I was involving
my late mother and a few other family members as well that could not be there. We had our photographer
take pictures of the items where they were and how they were being incorporated into the wedding and I
sent them to the people that were across the miles letting them know that even though they were not there,
we were still thinking about them and had a piece of them with us.

We added the 4 elements in different ways, including everyone that was not with us for the
celebration:

For the new we had all of the guests wear orange remember bracelets, in memory
Of my late mother.

At the alter stood my something new in the form of my new marriage an the beautiful ring
that I was receiving from the man pledging his love to me.

At our reception we used the glasses that my grandmother had used at her wedding, to toast with
our guests.

The blue was the color of the bouquet that was made by my mother in law I threw to all the lovely
single ladies to fight over.
