First off, we are not doing the garter toss or bouquet toss. I originally did not plan on wearing a garter at all, but found myself swooning over a lot of the awesomely designed garters from Florrie Mitton and Julianne Smith. I just couldn’t bring myself to buy a garter when I knew we weren’t partaking in the tossing tradition (of which really bothers me – the tradition, that is).
On a whim I entered a blog contest expecting to not win. Lets be honest, I never win anything. Ever. Not the lottery, nothing on the radio, zilch.
One sunny morning (we can pretend it was sunny, okay?), I got a lovely little surprise announcing that I had one the contest. Score!
So, what did I win?
After a crazy situation with the USPS (who happens to not be my friend at the moment), my garter finally arrived from the UK!
Pretty packaging!
Lovely little box!
Final product!
All images personal unless otherwise noted.
I could not be more excited about this garter. And, while I won’t be tossing it, I will be excitedly wearing it all day long!
Are you partaking in the garter toss tradition? Or did you “toss” that one out the door?
