Garter toss, yay or nay.

I personally dislike it, but I want to hear other bride-to-be's opinions.

    I'm skipping it, but for sure ill get a lot of negative reactions to that because its part of wedding tradition from me and my husband's culture ( Fil and Mex).

    We’re skipping the garter toss and the bouquet toss. Most of the women invited are married and I think the garter toss is just gross and awkward lol.

    No to the garter toss. And I’m indifferent with the bouquet toss.

    I like the idea, just not sure how I feel about something like a garter. Anyone have suggestions of something else the boys can toss?

    Quite a few posts have mentioned stuffed animals tossed instead so the catcher is the next person to adopt a pet. One wedding I attended in high school was very religious so a garter toss was off the table and the groom tossed his boutonnière, which was popular as an alternative.

    We’re sipping garter toss. I thought I wanted to toss my bouquet but it’s going to be costume made and grown by a local florists and I’d hate for it to get destroyed! And I almost Want to conserve it but I’m unsure

    Many brides will get a small bouquet just to toss, I'd that's an option.

    We are doing the married couples dance. Most of our friends and family are already married. I have also never been a fan of it.

    We haven’t decided yet, but my matron of honor suggested a t-shirt toss as an awesome alternative! Like what they do at sports games tossing custom shirts with our wedding date on it - that way even more people can participate and take something home that they might actually enjoy!
