From cutting the cake to tossing the bouquet, your wedding day is brimming with timeless and meaningful traditions that have been embraced by brides for centuries.

The beauty behind the bride wearing blue denotes purity, love, and fidelity. From the palest to richest shades, here are 10 of our favorite “something blue” ideas that give a beautiful take on this classic wedding tradition!
