I have to confess that I've never actually seen a garter toss in person! But apparently 37% of grooms still participate in this reception tradition! Will this toss tradition make the cut for your wedding? Do you want to keep or cancel this toss tradition? Photo from Red Gate Farms in Savannah, GA...

This is the same as the bouquet toss, I will not be doing it again there will be no one to toss it to. Besides, it will be a great addition to my beautiful wedding bouquet. We will keep it for ourselves, and cancel the tradition.

I guess keep. My FH really wants to do it even though my dress will make it a challenge.

I see a lot of cancel to the garter and bouquet toss, which I also decline to do. What did you do or planning in place of if anything?

Cancel. We aren't doing one b/c I think it would be awkward in front of all of our family and friends.

Cancel. I find the concept unsettling. I wouldn't want another man keeping an intimate item of clothing of mine. Hell, any item of my clothing.

You know. I might should look at my guest list again. Because um, I don’t know that there are any single guys on it except for his brother and mine. I was thinking about doing it not if no one will step up to catch it. Oh there’s like 7 so maybe.

Cancel for sure. I can't see my FH being happy to do that in front of others, and there's no one to throw it to. I have already bought one, but it's for us to play with in the hotel room later. 😉
