Are you wearing a Garter

[MrsMcs]

i am wearing a garter...it was actually the first thing i bought for my wedding:)...i got it from ebay for about $12...it's a set of two garters: one to keep on my leg & one to toss, they both have a little dolphin on them & they're blue and white...i think they're adorable...& i'm looking forward to the garter toss!! & to throwing the bouquet!! we are having a lot of single people at our wedding tho:P

No garter or bouquet toss at the DW or AHR.

 

Though, I did do a wedding once where the bride tossed a bouquet, but the flowers weren't bound together. That way, when it was thrown, each lady/girl was able to get a flower. It also made for some really neat pictures.

I mentioned to my FI about not having a garter and bouquet toss since most of our guest are married. He still wants me to wear a garter so he can take it off later that night.

I'm thinking that when the time comes I want to wear a garter! I probably won't throw it or anything, but will feel special wearing it just for him!

I don't know how sexy a garter would be with my Spanx!!

I haven't decided yet. I like the idea but my dress is silk charmeuse so I'm nervous it will show through my dress.

that's a negative. i never liked that tradition & i wont be tossing any flowers either.

I don't plan to-- not a fan of the "tradition" and it seems like just one more piece of wedding industry crap to me. I don't consider myself a prude but it seems vulgar to me, the process of the groom digging around in your skirts to grab at your thighs in front of everyone. And I hate the tossing of the bouquet/garter. As a single person, it always felt so demeaning to me so I never stood up to catch it.

 

I know I'm not typical in my thoughts though.

[CJEB]

Yes I will be wearing one. It will have the traditional blue bow.

 

I will be flashing it, will not be about tossing it - not in public

I just got one recently. It's my 'something blue." i first said i wouldn't wear one but then said, What the hell....
