Creating Family Traditions On Your Wedding Day
Do you remember what is was like to be a little girl and dream
of your wedding day? How many of you pictured yourself in your
mother's dress or wearing your grandmother's necklace from her
wedding day?
Heirlooms can be anything from a bracelet to a handkercheif, but
there is something to be said about that warm and fuzzy feeling
that you get when you are able to participate in a tradition
that has so much meaning to your family. And "heirloom" doesn't
have to mean old, memories are always in the making, so why not
start with you?
Quality is the first thing that you need to look for in an item
that could potentially be an heirloom. Without quality
construction, no item will last long enough to be in the family
for generations to come.
Timelessness is another aspect to consider. When choosing items
that you'd like to pass down to your children and grand children
try to avoid fads and trends. Chances are, it will be a few
generations before they will come back into style again.
A very easy way to start a tradition that will stay in the
family is with jewelry. Do you know a woman who doesn't own a
piece of jewelry with a story behind it? A good story is the
start of a lasting heirloom. It's a perfect place to begin.
Just imagine yourself in 10 years, sitting on your couch with
your daughter while
you're flipping through the photo album from
your wedding day. And in all of the photos, you are wearing a Swarovski Three Point Crystal
Necklace, it sparkles beautifully, and is the finishing
touch that really makes you a princess-for-a-day!!
Now imagine yourself in 30 years, standing with your daughter on
her special day. Both of you are absolutely overwhelmed with
anticipation for the events to come and cherishing every moment.
You have tied each bow and bottoned each tiny button on her
beautiful dress, she is almost ready to go down the aisle when
you present her with the necklace that you wore on your big day
and also with the Swarovski Crystal Comb Hair
Piece that you dawned in your hair, and now, she is ready!!!
You can make these moments happen starting today and lasting
for a lifetime, not only for you but the people that you love
the most! Visit Brilliant
Wedding Jewelry for more incredible ideas to help you make
your dreams come true.
