Full description

Something old,

something new,

something borrowed,

something blue,

and a sixpence in her shoe.........

It is often recited as the four "somethings", and not including the sixpence.

The tradition dates back to a Scottish custom of a groom putting a silver coin under his foot for good luck. For optimum fortune, the sixpence should be in the left shoe.

A silver sixpence symbolizes wealth and prosperity and is to be put into the shoe of the bride by her father right before the wedding ceremony.

These are genuine British SILVER sixpences.

The card has been hand embossed in silver ink.

A wonderful gift for the bride to be! Take a look at the framed sixpence print!

Thanks for taking the time to look!
