People are at a wedding reception.The newly wed partner went for that garter and found it on his new partner's leg.The garter is thrown.It's lucky you.You caught the wedding dress!Now what?
This has never happened to me as a custom garter designer.I'm here to give you some advice on what to do with the garter that you got at the wedding.
If you catch the garter at a wedding reception, there are some things to do.I hope that you will take some time to check it out because I go through a lot of wedding planning questions.There are a lot of questions about a garter.
It can be difficult to catch the wedding garter after it is thrown.Should I keep it?Do you want to wear it?Is it a good idea to put it on my head?
The person who catches the wedding garter is supposed to be the next person to marry.It is usually all of the singles that get together to catch the garter and whoever catches it is supposed to pass it on to their partner.Sometimes you'll see "you're next" embroidered on the garter.
I think we can all agree that this part of the wedding tradition has seen better times.People aren't naive enough to think that they will be the next in line if they catch the garter.
Most brides want their own stylish wedding garter, unless, of course, the caught garter was once a family member's.I don't think that only single men should be able to catch the bouquet.The garter toss should be open to anyone who wants to participate.It is your wedding and you do everything you can.
What should you do with the caught garter?It depends on who you are and what you want to do with it.There are a number of possible options.
Many brides want to keep their wedding clothes.It is a small souvenir from the wedding.If you catch the garter, you should ask the bride if she wants it back.If the bride is busy, give the garter to one of her bridesmaids or the maid of honor.She was going to lose it as a tossing garter.You should do this after you take a lot of funny and proud pictures.
You won the fair and square, so you have the right to keep it.As the next person to get married, you can try your luck.
If the bride was a family member, giving the garter to her would be a nice gesture.
This option is usually what happens at weddings I've been to.Someone catches the wedding garter and has fun with it, but they don't know what happens to it by the end of the night.
A bride once told me that the last time she saw her wedding dress was at the head of one of the groomsmen.Get silly and have fun as the garter-catcher.You don't know where the night will take you.
I will advise on the option where you give it back to the bride, but all of the other suggestions have their place as well.
