The Bridal Garter

October 21st, 2009

Whether you choose to have a garter throwing ceremony or simply want to wear one with your wedding gown, a bridal garter is an important part to any wedding reception. The garter throwing ceremony is just like the bouquet throwing ceremony except the groom takes the garter off his bride and throws it to a group of unmarried men. It is said that the groom is supposed to put the garter on the woman who caught the bouquet, but that is rarely practiced nowadays.

If you plan on having the garter tossing ceremony, you should plan on buying 2 bridal garters or a Keep/Toss Bridal Garter set so you have a garter to toss and a garter as a keepsake.
