※ 引述《ellinas (abroad)》之銘言： : chandler當她老爸 phoebe脫下大衣要走出咖啡店時 : chandler問她 "你不會冷嗎" : phoebe回說 "I'll be my something blue" : 這句什麼意思啊? Q: Where does the tradition of the bride carrying 'something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue' in the ceremony come from? Is it the mother and/or grandmother of the bride who provides these items, or the bride herself? A: The 'something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue, and a silver sixpence in your shoe' is from an Old English rhyme. The 'something old, something new' refers to the bride's passage from her old life to her new one and expresses optimism for the future. 'Something borrowed' symbolizes borrowed happiness (usually from a recent bride or married woman) and 'something blue' represents purity and fidelity. In fact, in biblical days, both the bride and groom wore a blue band around the bottom of their wedding attire to express their faithfulness and commitment to one another. Finally, the 'silver sixpence' symbolizes good fortune and prosperity for the couple. Just about anyone can offer something old, new, borrowed or blue. Often mothers and grandmothers like to give the bride a token from their own weddings as something old or something borrowed but the givers can also be a sister, other relative, or friend. It's a lovely tradition and brides still enjoy making it a part of their weddings today. 以上文章轉錄自以下網頁 http://forums.weddingsolutions.com/archive/index.php/t-2536 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.229.12.200
