Garter Toss alternative-cute or tacky?

Kelly, on April 1, 2014 at 4:14 PM Posted in Community Conversations 0 22

So we wanted to do something for the guys, and without my FH going up my skirt in front of 150 people (awk). Well we decided that instead of ME wearing the garter, FH will wear it and I will take it off of him. And just kind of reverse it. I just want to know if you were a guest at a wedding where they did this would you think cute or tacky?

    Id actually find this quite funny. As long as you went up his pant leg...and not...down...

    I'd laugh my butt off. It's time for the boys to get a taste of their own medicine.

    Oh my God....I have never heard of such a thing but it' brilliant! We were going to cut it out of the wedding all together along with the bouquet toss just because it's always awkward to force people to catch those things but this actually sounds like such a great idea hahaha you could even make it a unisex toss so the men and women can catch it together if you aren't tossing a bouquet.

    I second the brilliant! It almost makes me want to rethink cutting it out of the wedding.

    I think this is the one time I would think a garter toss was awesome. Are the ladies allowed to try to catch it?

    I've done that. We still announced the groom out, then when he got to the bride, just before he knelt down, she hopped up, grabbed him by the shirt/tie, and put him in the chair. It really suited their dynamic.
