Something Blue...






The old rhyme goes "something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" and it is fun for me to find out how Brides complete these requirements. Usually the something new is the dress or shoes and often the something old is a piece of family jewelry. I have seen borrowed headpieces, veils and jewelry. But some brides get tripped up by the something blue. My something blue was my garter and I have heard of Brides wearing blue underwear (Lord knows that should not be old or borrowed) but recently I have been seeing more and more blue incorporated into gowns.

Jen did not have a problem with her something blue because she had a blue ribbon right on her dress. She also had a matching Pashmina since it was rather cold that day. Jen got married on October 18, 2008 and I adore how her makeup turned out. As you can see, she has dark hair and bright blue eyes (gorgeous combo). She does not ever wear makeup and she really wanted to look drop dead gorgeous on her wedding day and I think we achieved that. Her photographer (http://www.travishoehne.com/) is based in California and does beautiful work. He is also awesome because he sent me some pictures. It was really hard to limit the amount because they were all amazing. Congratulations Jen and Brent!
