Wearing something Blue on the wedding day was a symbol of the couples fidelity. In ancient Israel when brides wore blue ribbons on the border of their wedding cloths to symbolize, love, modesty and fidelity. Christian Brides felt it symbolized purity. Blue was the color painted in garments worn by the Virgin Mary.

In the Ashanti region of Southern Ghana, Africa, women's waistbeads are endowed with evocative power (according to Dr. Susanne Gott of the Kansas City Art Institute). From an early age, young girls are adorned with beads at their waist, wrists and ankles through growing up. As young adults the beads worn under the clothing entice the opposite sex.
