Instead of borrowing a piece of jewelry or a little trinket you have to stuff away under your dress. Borrow a brooch from a close family member and add it to your bouquet. Not only is this a beautiful addition to your bouquet, borrowing it from a family member adds the perfect sentimental touch.

Will you stay true to this tradition?
