Re: GARTER AND TOSS GARTER QUESTION!
I'm not doing it -- but from what I hear -- generally brides wear both of them on the same leg (right I think) -- except the good one they hike all the way up (mid-thigh) -- and the throw-away they leave at just-above knee level (that way you husband doesn't look like he's trying to pull off your underwear).You can stop at the bridal suite before the bouquet toss to add the throw away & make the necessary adjustments or you could just take off the good one and put on the throw away.

My brother got married this weekend. My SIL wore two on her left (? can't remember and I was on who helped her put it on). The good one hiked up high and the throw away was worn lower.

Re: GARTER AND TOSS GARTER QUESTION!
Show him which one you want him to throw. Put your good garter very high on your leg, the other lower. I hate seeing a groom going up to mid-thigh in the middle of a dance floor anyway.Welcome New Vendors
