A bride's mother asked me why we never use fake flowers for the 'something borrowed'

She said, 'If it's borrowed, shouldn't it be plastic so you can give it back?' It made me think about how we explain tradition versus practicality to clients. Ever had a request that made you question a basic industry norm?

Wait, she thought the 'borrowed' part meant you literally return it?

Yeah, it's like people take idioms way too literally sometimes. I see it all the time with stuff like "break a leg" or "piece of cake." It just shows how language can get tangled up.
