Summary

• Getting married is one of the most
• important things in our life. In the United
• States, people follow several traditions
• called Something old, something new,
• something borrowed , something blue.
• Something old means a stuff (ex
• Grandmas wedding dress ) from brides
• family and it represents a connection with

3

• their past and family.
• Something new symbolizes the joy of
• the brides future life. And the subject we
• called something borrowed is usually
• borrowed from their close friends or family
• members. Which means whenever the
• brides need a hand, theyll always stand by
• their sides.
• Loyalty and faithfulness both play an
• important role in the marriage. So we use

4

• something blue (ex the garter on the brides
• leg) to stand for them.
• Everyone knows that the prettiest woman
• in the wedding ceremony must be the bride
• herself

Reflection

• After reading this essay, we realize that
• therere many special wedding traditions in
• the culture of America. If I were others bride
• someday, I would probably follow the cute
• traditions as well.
• I like something borrowed and something
• old the most. Being a human, you cannot live
• without friends, and a true friend is someone who

6

• always will be there by your side.
• Once you need her or him. As soon as
• you see the stuff which is connective with
• your friend , youll be relieved just because it
• reminds you that you wont be alone!
• Family is just like a castle that you can
• relax and get some comforts. Others would
• never care about you as much as your
• own family do. Things which can remind us

7

• that we will always be relative with our past
• and our family tell us everything is just the
• same except youre a mans wife now
