| I hope to actually purchase a sixpence like they used back then as they are still sold today and hold on to it for my daughters' weddings and they can use it as something borrowed or something old!

|
| I am doing it. It is also my something borrowed...my sister gave me her's after her wedding to put in my shoe on my wedding day.

|

I am probably going barefoot (on the beach) so should I just hold it between my toes???
But I did find the coolest thing, I found some strappy short heeled shoes with some sort of "sponge" soft material on the sole, it was the BEST idea, they were soooo comfy, has anyone else seen anything like this? All heels should have this. What a great idea!!!

I have heard about this before...but I have heard that it doesn't follow current tradition so I wasn't planning on doing it.
Is anyone else planning on it?

The wedding gown is often chosen as the new item. Something Borrowed is to remind the bride that friends and family will be there for her when help is needed long after the wedding is over. The borrowed object might be something such as a lace handkerchief. Something Blue is the symbol of faithfulness and loyalty. Often the blue item is the garter.
A Sixpence in her Shoe is to wish the bride and groom wealth.
If you place the penny at the ball of your foot, you shouldnt feel it or have any discomfort!

| My shoes are slip ons so I have no clue how to master that one! :) ha ha ha

|
|
| I wonder if taping it to the bottom would do!!!
|
|
|
|
| I suspect it could be abit uncomfortable to walk around with a penny in your shoe ?
|
|
|
|
| Thanks....I could use some wealth!!!

|
| If you do a google search on it, it states that a penny (they used to use six pence) would bring wealth for the couple.

| A woman I work with says you should have a penny in your shoe when you get married. She thinks it is for good luck. Anyone know anything about this or why?
