Garter/Bouquet toss with only a few singles?

Cindy, on June 6, 2010 at 8:23 PM Posted in Planning 0 6

We were trying to count, but I think we both have about 4 single ladies and 4 single guys. Is that too little to have the tosses? I wanted to do them, but if it'd be awkward I suppose we could do the good luck tosses?

    We're not doing it. We're going to do a anniversary dance and whoever has been married the longest (last couple standing on the dance floor) will get either my toss bouquet or a small gift. I personally don't want my FH going up my dress in front of all our friends and family and I think that the tosses make for a very awkward moment. But that's just my opinion.

    We aren't doing it either, because we didn't have many single friends either. I don't think people would miss it!

    It's important that your wedding guests feel as comfortable as possible, and nobody likes being put on the spot! I would agree with the previous posts... if you both are comfortable with it, it's probably not necessary to have the garter and bouquet toss if there are only a few people to catch them Smiley smile

    I've been wondering about that myself. We're the 2nd to last of our group to get married (although we've been together just as long as the first of our group to get married), and we have just a few single people attending. I'm glad you asked! This has been helpful.

    I also was wondering about this myself. I'm in the same situation with very few single friends, and the awkwardness of the whole thing was worrying to me. I was always one those women people had to force out into the floor during the bouquet toss.

    At my brother's wedding, the only people who participated were the bridesmaids and groomsmen. (~5 of each) it was so embarrassing and awkward. I am definitely foregoing it.
