That's what I call them. A lot of photogs have them on their web sites. They're pics of the bride looking all sultry and provocative. I give the girls who can pull that off credit, but if my photographer tried telling me to 'make love to the camera', he'd probably wind up with the camera down his throat!

Hey everyone....I am a barley 30+ bride but i am one nonetheless.
The garter toss is out. I dont think there will be any single guys there anyway. The bouqet toss has been xxxed out also. The anniversary dance is a nice idea. How exactly does it work...you ask all of the couples that have been together for a certain number of years to come up?

i'm barely a 30+ bride. I will be 31 when I get married in March. There are a lot of things that I'm not doing for the wedding, that i might have done if i did get married at 22.

This is what it looks like

I never saw one of those. How old is your RB? My nephews (5 y/o and 6 y/o) will be my RBs. For my sister's wedding, they carried silver flowers that could hold the rings. I think I'll have them use those again for mine. Hey, can that count as my something borrowed??

Hi- Welcome Jen and Megan
I see that you both are getting married this year. Are you guys doing anything different than the 20+ brides?
We have noticed that as older brides some things dont mean as much to us.
For example- I am not doing the Bouquet/garter toss- not wearing a veil- no mother/son-father/daughter dance

Welcome Megan and Jen!!!!!! I'm Kirsten, I got married last summer and I'm 41 now. Like Celia said above, we love to hear about everyone's planning but find that we are doing/did things a little differently than some of the younger brides here.
I also didn't do a garter/bo-k toss...my 'thing' with my wedding was that the food had to be fab lol![]()
Hi Kirsten!
I agree about the garter/bo-k toss. I'm going to do an anniversary dance, instead of the bo-k toss. In an odd coincidence, at their weddings, my parents and FH's parents had the same song as their first dance. So we'll use that song for the anniversary dance.
No garter toss, at all. I don't need FH digging around under my dress in front of our friend and families!

I have a question FH wants to do the garter thing (take it off that is)...but he knows I don't want to do the BoK toss (most friends are married)..so would it look stupid to let him take off the garter but not do the tosses![]()

Hi, thanks for having us!
The things that I am not doing that I guess are usually typical are:
No garter toss, I never liked it, even as a kid!
I am wearing a veil, but I'm not doing the whole over my face thing walking down the aisle. The veil will be towards the back of my head and I assume will be coming off when I get to the reception.
I think I am doing the boK toss, I'm not doing a special dance, but FH may with his mother.(I'm afraid she will have a sh**fit if he doesn't)
I'm also not doing a card box, in fact until I joined this site, I had never even heard of it.
I'm sure there are a few other things, can't think right now!
