Product Description

"Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue, and a Sixpence for her Shoe." The tradition of gifting a sixpence to the bride dates back to the 1600's, when it was customary for the Lord of the Manor to give his bride a piece of silver as a gift. This was symbolically represented by a sixpence coin. It later became a tradition to include a sixpence in the dowry that was given by the bride's family to the groom. This tradition continues today as a wish for good luck and fortune for the bride and groom.
