Bouquet & Garter toss Ques...

I am planning on not throwing my bouquet but honoring my mother with it because she has been ill. She is getting better with therapy.

I still would like to do the garter toss. I know that catching the bouquet was next to marry. What could I use for the men catching the garter? Or should I just eliminate the garter toss?

thanks in advance ladies....

I think if you still want to use the garter then go for it. I think that is very nice that you want to dedicate your bouquet to your mom. Im glad to hear that she is feeling better.
Maybe for the garter, the guy who catches it gets the garter, and maybe a bottle of champagne, or gets to choose any lady to dance with.

Why don't you see if your florist can make a throw away bouquet? Then you can toss that one, and honor your mother with the real one. Just a suggestion! We aren't doing the garter/bouquet thing, and I haven't decided what to do with the bouquet yet.
