Okay so, we're not big fans of the origins of the garter toss & bouquet toss. But we still want traditional aspects to our wedding- including this. SO!

Okay so, we're not big fans of the origins of the garter toss & bouquet toss. But we still want traditional aspects to our wedding- including this. SO! This is going to sound crazy, but- we were thinking about flipping this tradition. As in he'll wear a garter, I'll take it off and throw it to the guys (the garter will be on his calf so it'll be easy to take off). He'll then throw the bouquet to the girls lol. We're crazy and love fun stuff, so we thought it might be funny.

Now my question for you all- is this random and people won't get it? Or funny? We'd play around with it and all that so it's obvious. I laughed really hard when we talked about it and the more FH thought about it, the more he laughed about it too... Thoughts?

ETA: wording

    @FlightyFlutist- that's what we're going for, but you worded it better than I did haha! We want to make it fun because I always find the garter toss and all that awkward... I'm trying to think of really good ways to make it more fun. Props maybe?? Idk.

    I'd laugh! You know your audience and it's nothing too crazy that people would really remember in a really good way or a really bad way if that makes sense.. Lol

    I would find it hysterical. But I definitely agree it depends on your guests. I also agree the guys should catch the bouquet and women the garter. Those would make fun pictures
