fh: So I was thinking about the garter thing on the way to work this morning and wondering if it's worth doing? Are you set on doing it? I was just thinking about weddings I have been to where its done and sometimes its good but sometimes its just awkward. What do you think?
me: i dont care. i bought my garter and everything but i guess we don't have to do it.
fh: Maybe even I can still take it off and just not toss it?
me: what's the point of that?
fh: I don't know. So I can touch you in public?
ok so now my question is.....what do u ladies think about the garter toss? We have both been on the fence about it but i bought a cute penn state garter so i figured i'd just do it. now we arent sure.
either way i am def doing bo-k toss? should i skip the garter?

We're doing it, but we are the first of our friends to get married.

If it doesn't matter to both of you, don't do it! You don't need it. He can still remove the garter if he really wants to go up your skirt in front of all your friends and family.

Re: funny email convo with fh .....with a question
I am personally not doing the garter - I just think its so uncomfortable and I don't know, its just weird imo........most of the girls get embarassed to be up there.....
you can still wear it and he can take it off at night.......
ETA: most of the girls at the party are engaged, married or just in really serious relationships.....don't need my 13 year cousins catching it and having one of FH retarded friends putting it on them

@ Fh!
If you're gonna go the bo-k toss, then people will expect a garter toss (i think). We're not gonna do either though.

Re: funny email convo with fh .....with a question
We just decided this weekend not to do it. Almost all of our guests are married or in very serious relationships. I can only think of about 6 girls that are actually single..........
ETA: I am wearing a garter though.....it's my something blue / borrowed from FMIL.

I'm not doing either garter removal or bo-k toss, but I'm still wearing a garter cause it goes with my wedding night ensemble

We are doing it. We know some people think it is cheesy, but what other time can you really be cheesy in front of that many people.

Hahahaha! Very funny Steve!!!
We're doing the bo-k toss but not the garter. Most of our friends will be married by then so there won't be that many people to get up there and his friends are savages and will probably do something embarassing and inappropriate anyway...

at my cousin's wedding she did only the bo-k toss and it didnt seem weird. i think its cuz girls love doing that stuff.

IMO I wouldn't do without it, I love when they do the garter and bo-k toss and all that fun stuff. Everyone cracks up, and it's just a fun part of the wedding that I would definitely want to do.

Re: funny email convo with fh .....with a question
we are not doing the garter toss.
we do not like the idea of FH crawling up my dress in front of all of our family & friends. this is just something personal with us. we don't even kiss in public.

Re: funny email convo with fh .....with a question
we're not doing either and I don't think i'm going to wear a garter
at my brother's wedding, my 13 year old cousin caught the garter, and my SIL's cousin's GF caught the bouquet and was VERY inappropriate with him (like grinding) and it was like really uncomfortable for everyone.
so i am avoiding all that!

Re: funny email convo with fh .....with a question
I personally don't care for the garter or bouquet toss. It can be awkward/uncomfortable plus it chews up time. I'd say skip it.
