If I wear one, it has to be sports-themed. A Mets one, or maybe Giants. That's the only way you're going to get me to wear one. And I'm definitely not doing the garter toss (or bouquet, for that matter).

Definitely garter. Its gonna be my something blue because I have nowhere else to put something blue doesn't go with my fall color scheme at all. I plan on doing both tosses.

Going to wear one and FH is looking forward to a garter toss, but we realized that we have very few single people coming to the wedding. We've been looking forward to wedding traditions like the bok and garter toss, but what is there to do if there aren't any (or many) single people?

No garter. I hate hate hated being 'forced' to be a part of the boquet toss and all that jazz when single at a wedding. I don't want to put anyone else through that...and I think the garter thing is so cheesy.

I'm not sure. I have friends who are mostly married or in serious relationships. FH has mostly single male friends. I think we'll decide if we want to do that closer to the wedding when we can sort of see who will be coming and who wont be.But I will be wearing a garter. One definitely for him. If we do the toss I'll get like a cheap one or whatever.

We are doing the toss because FH wants it. I'll be wearing 2. One I make (hopefully) with my dad's old NYPD work shirt and the lace from my mom's veil, and the other a cheap one to throw.

We also don't have a lot of single friends either but I definitely want to do this.. So I am not sure what to do either..

No garter! Just not my thing. I always thought the toss was creepy. I'm more of a private person.

Def doing garter and bouquet toss... It's a fun tradition and it breaks up the party for the guests. Plus we have a lot of 'almost engaged' couples that it would work well for.Welcome New Vendors
