something blue
Wedding rhyme finale
Something blue refers to one item in the traditional wedding rhyme "something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue"—a checklist of tokens a bride should carry for good luck.
The blue element traditionally symbolizes fidelity and love: Her grandmother's sapphire ring was her something blue.
The phrase sometimes appears alone as shorthand for wedding preparation or bridal sentiment.
