Keepsake Garter & Toss Garter

Courtney, on March 15, 2019 at 11:05 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 3
Hi everyone! So I recently purchased and received my garters! I ended up getting a keepsake garter and toss garter. My question is, do you wear both garters all night? Or just the keepsake and FH has the toss garter in his pocket and switches them out before he tosses it?

    I feel like it would be easier to wear both so your hubby isn’t taking one off and having to switch it with the one that’s getting tossed. Maybe wear the keepsake one higher up or on the other leg to make it easier.

    I'm wearing the larger one all night, then will slip on the smaller one right before the garter (just lower on my leg).

    So I put both on the same leg with the keepsake one higher up and even used double sided tape after reading stories of them not staying up (I bought expensive custom non-slip ones for my exact leg measurement). Even with the tape and putting them on about 2 hours pre-ceremony as I got ready to walk down the aisle I felt them slipping. My wedding planner quickly pulled them both off and pulled me aside to put them back on right before we did the garter toss.

    I don’t think there’s anyway to get them to stay all day! Honestly, I would only put them on for the actual toss and/or pictures if you want pictures showing them.
