"Something Blue" Ideas

Last but not least, “something blue” is the most colorful aspect of the old English tradition and comes at the end of the rhyme. Whether you’re looking for just a splash of color or a big display, we’ve put together some ideas for your wedding day.

Bluish Getting Ready Attire

Wear a pair of blue pajamas or a silky robe while getting ready for your trip down the aisle. Although you won’t be wearing during your nuptials, this modern take allows you to include your bridal party in the tradition! A pair of bluish slippers will add the perfect final touch.

Tinted Getaway Vehicle

Organizing a grand escape on your big day? Drive away in style using a blue-hued vehicle. Consider borrowing a vintage car from a family member or rent another automobile that fits the bill. Add car decorations like tin cans, garland or a sign for an additional pop of color.

Walk in Color

One of the best go-to’s for something blue is by incorporating it on shoes. Rock a pair of tinted heels or have the bottoms painted for a hidden splash of color. If opting for a pair of sneakers, or if you’d like to include your partner, consider dyed laces.

Notes of Blue

Skip the dyed attire and choose something blue that also serves as a memento. A blue notebook can be used for writing notes between the to-be-wedded couple on the day of their Michigan wedding. Frame the journal, or leave in out for guests to read in your future home. Don’t forget to use a blue pen for added luck!

Eye-catching Sash

Complement your wedding gown with a sash of blue pigment. Show your glam side with a jeweled belt or go romantic with a floral-inspired piece. Not only will this highlight your waist, but it can also pull in any blue beading details or embroidery your dress may have.
