June - the month of weddings The Irish Brides Dress With the Church booked and the date chosen. The bride’s attention turns to her dress and accessories. This has to chosen carefully as the color of her dress might determine how successful the marriage is: Marry in white everything’s right Marry in blue lover be true Marry in pink spirit’s will sink Marry in gray live far away Marry in brown live out of town Marry in green ashamed to be seen Marry in yellow ashamed of your fellow Marry in black wish you were back Marry in red wish you were dead Marry in tan he’ll be a loved man Marry in pearl you’ll live in a whirl This then is followed by the traditional things that she will need to have with her: Something old, something new Something borrowed, something blue And an old Irish penny in her shoe. The old Irish penny part seems to have disappeared in modern times, although no bride would dare walk down the aisle without the rest. The something blue tends to be a blue garter worn around the top of the leg, which the groom usually has to remove using only his teeth much to the amusement of friends and family.
