garter and bok toss?

We are torn, I like it sometimes, but there won't be very many single guys or gals at the wedding... so idk if anyone would come up... it might end up being embarassing if no one steps up... I think we might drop it

bok toss but not garter. FH is not comfortable doing it and we also were just at a wedding where the guy who caught it was way out of control with the girl who caugt the bok and is was sooooo embarassing. We dont want that happening in front of our families at ours. Just our preference. If we had really cool families, we might think about doing it though.

I think we are going to be cheesy and do it as well.... My FH has a whooooole lot of single college friends, so i know they will get a kick out of it Ahhhh i say you live once, so to be cheesy, and corney why not!

Re: is everyone planning on doing...

I THINK we are going to. I don't know if FH & I are going to do the whole garter removal thing... that freaks me out.

About 98% of my friends are single, so I think it will just be pure fun. And if they don't want to do it, they don't have to.

Re: is everyone planning on doing...

We are not doing it... there won't be too many single people at the wedding... and between FH and I the logistics of the whole thing would be more trouble than it's worth.

Anniversary dance, instead.

Re: is everyone planning on doing...

I am not doing either. Since we are an older couple we dont have alot of single guests. Instead we are goingto the anniversary dance and give a bottle of champagne to the longest married cocuple

Re: is everyone planning on doing...

We're not going to do it. Most of our guests are married or in serious relationships. I think it would single out the singles (like i was in some weddings). It depends on your crowd. It can be very akward or it can be very fun.
