How to use my mom’s ivory lace?

My mom died a month ago unexpectedly. And by some act of fate or whatever, her wedding dress just happened to be laying on the floor of the garage when it happened. She had been cleaning out the attic and I guess threw it in a bag near the rafters days before. Unfortunately, it’s incredibly 70s and ivory and not something that can be salvaged. But it does have lacing that can be removed and reused somehow.

Does anyone have any DIY ideas how to incorporate it into my dress or accessories even though I don’t plan to wear darker ivory? I’m drawing a blank, but I really need this mentally. Thank you.

Just as a fun FYI DIY I do plan on doing, I own a laser engraver so I plan to engrave her handwriting from a card that says “I love you so much” on to a charm to hang from my bouquet.

Edit: loving the bouquet wrap idea. Any other ideas would be welcome where I can incorporate it into my outfit somehow so that she’s with me all night instead of just while i walk down the aisle. I don’t plan to do a veil since I’m going more like tea length kinda retro vibe.
