Garter...

Ok...so yknow how you do the garter toss? Of course you do...here is my situation. I want to keep my garter but I have to toss it is I am doing my garter toss. So my mom said she will make me another one(which will be more special since she made it) this one I will wear during the ceremony and the dances...then I will change into my blue garter (that is store brought) so that one will be the one I toss. Is anyone else in this situation?

HUH?



LMAO!! I know I can confuse people sometimes. Ok..I want to keep my garter, as a keepsake yknow. But if I throw it in the garter toss I will no longer have it, it will be on someone else...so what r ur suggestions? My mom said to have two. One that I wear during the ceremony and the first few special dances, then I go into the suite and switch to the other 'toss garter' which my FH will take off an toss, leaving me with the first garter that I get to keep as a reminder of my special day. does that make more sense?

why don't you just get $3 garter from any bridal shop or even ac moore or something, and THAT will be the tossing garter and there's no fuss

uM....Actually a lot of people get a garter to toss and one to keep, just kind of like the bouquet.

It's not odd at all.

Well thats not my situation. I did buy a $5 one, which I want to toss..but does it make sense to wear the special one (the one my mom made) during the ceremony and stuff and then switch off to the other one which will be thrown?

Re: Garter...


AH okay it makese sense now.
I agree with MJDOC.....get a cheapy garter, put it during the reception and toss that.
This way you get to keep your 2 garters that you like

Well thats not my situation. I did buy a $5 one, which I want to toss..but does it make sense to wear the special one (the one my mom made) during the ceremony and stuff and then switch off to the other one which will be thrown?



why do you have to switch off? why not just wear both of them? like have the toss cheapy one on the side--and before the garter toss just slide it on before the nice one you want to keep and tell your FH to just take off the one garter?

doing the switching off and such makes it more complicated than it needs to be! a lot of girls do it the way i just described. just makes it easier

or you can just wear both the whole time - have the cheapy one lower than the one you would like to keep and tell FH to take the first one off. This way you don't have to worry about putting the cheap one on.

Re: Garter...

Most girls get a tossing garter. You can wear both together . Keep the one you want to keep on the top, and the bottom one is the one they take off.

I'm not doing the tossing, so I'm only getting 1 garter.


HTH!

2 garters makes more sense... get a cheap one to toss.
We're not doing a garter toss. Most of my friends are married and the ones who aren't would kill me if I drap them up... they're in their lates 20's or early 30's.
