William and Kate tied the knot in a Royal Wedding ceremony at the Westminster Abbey in London, England on Friday (April 29). Prince Wiliam’s wife Catherine “Kate” Middleton did not forget the old British rhyme that says a bride must wear “something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue” for good luck on her wedding day.

Something Old: Middleton’s wedding dress, designed by Alexander McQueen creative director Sarah Burton, featured a long-sleeved lace overlay that paid respect to the Arts and Craft custom. This tradition, characterized by the Carrickmacross lace-making technique used in the dress design, is a tribute to British craftsmanship.

Something New: As a wedding gift, Middleton’s parents, Carole and Michael, gave the bride a pair of leaf-shaped diamond earrings, which were made by Robinson Pelham to match her tiara.

Something Borrowed: The Queen lent Middleton the glittering 1936 Cartier halo-style tiara that crowned her curls. The tiara has been in the Royal Family since it was purchased by King George VI for the Queen Mother.

Something Blue: Although Middleton appeared to be all dressed in white, a hint of blue ribbon was sewn into the gown.
