I am!!!
Obviously everyone has their own opinion about this subject.. But to tell you the truth.. I can't stand the B toss and the garder..

It cuts into dancing time..lol

I'm actually going to have the ceremony where I present my mother with the bouqet.

Just my opinion!

We are skipping both. Neither appeal to us and most of our friends are married or are in serious relationships ... I don't want three single women to be out there alone in the spotlight battling for a bunch of flowers anyway!

Yes.. we won't have enough singles for this to be fun or worthwhile.

We are skipping it. Just don't want to put my friends through that torture (most of my friends are married).

me... i dont care of it to begin with and the fact that everyone is pretty much a couple at our wedding, it makes no sense to IMO

We skipped it! I didn't wear a garter (we had a cheap one from Michael's that we used to do some funny pics) and a didn't carry a bouquet, just a single rose. Even I had a traditional bouquet I would not have done the toss. Honestly, I have NEVER been to a wedding before where the garter and toss were done.

I'm skipping. Every wedding that I've gone to that has had it has usually had people forced to go up there. I'm opting to throw my bouquet to the girls after church just to get a photo.

I'm not doing the garter toss, not sure if I want to do the bouquet toss either.

Re: Is anyone skipping the....

I AM!! I personally hate this tradition. We want an elegant affair and I just don't think having grandma watch while my FH has his face in my crotch and removes my garter using his teeth is elegant or something she needs to see! I'm DEFINITELY not doing it. LOL!!

I'm not doing the bok toss either. I don't like it. I mean a bunch of single gals on the floor fighting for a bouquet is not my idea of an elegant evening IMO. Not my thing at all.
