CustomMade for the Bride, Part 4: Something Blue

Something old, something new,

Something borrowed, something blue,

And a silver sixpence in her shoe.

Although the color white is strongly associated with weddings in Western cultures, blue has also been worn by brides since Ancient Roman times through the late 19th century, a practice that has led to proverbs like, “Marry in blue, lover be true.”  Here are a few pieces of custom jewelry to get you in the mood for blue to round out your custom bridal ensemble.

This beautiful aqua cupid necklace by Chris & Alix Jewelry can go with any dress and certainly hits the right symbolic note for a wedding piece.  Check out the great reviews artisans Chris Loertscher and Alix Scherzer have received from their CustomMade clients.  Interested in a necklace made from a Swarovski crystal with a different shade of blue?
