Re: Garter/bouqet
We're doing it because there is a large under 30 crowd at the wedding and we know our friends and family will enjoy having this moment to laugh - plus my FH wanted a chance to play 'Girls, Girls, Girls' by Motley Crue!

Re: Garter/bouqet
No garter toss...BoK toss and wallet toss(for the guys). We're going to slip in a benjamin in each one. Around our crowds, that's the only way to get people on the floor and really excited to catch anything.

Re: Garter/bouqet
Probably doing both... We also have a decent amount of guys under 30, and they are looking forward to the garter toss

Re: Garter/bouqet
No garter toss even though I am wearing one. For me its a thing I choose not to do because it takes away from any dancing/partying and I want my guests to enjoy it to the fullest.

Neither. Most of our friends are already married (or married & divorced
).

Re: Garter/bouqet
Definitely doing both! At the last wedding we went to, I caught the BoK and FH caught the garter! It was so much fun and now we are getting married, so I wanna pass on the good luck to our friends!

Re: Garter/bouqet
Our band is playing 'Lady Marmalade' (the LaBelle arrangement) as the background to our bouquet toss. Yes I know it is a song about a whore but...
