My stolen garter toss idea..Ideas and opinions please!

FMS, the barefoot wife!, on April 29, 2010 at 1:53 AM Posted in Planning 0 28

So, I wanted to do something funny for the garter toss, but NOT pulling out granny panties, so I thought about stealing this idea from TLC's Four Weddings; one couple had the groom pulling out locks and other funny things before the actual garter, I thought it was hilarious! Yay or Nay? If YAY, what other items can my FH pull out from 'down below''? I do have some semi religious proper older relatives, but I've never noticed if they have ever payed attention to the garter toss, Ideas and opinion please!!

    I saw a video where a guy pulled out a midget...among many other things. Hold on, I'll go look for it. Might give you some ideas.

    Hmm...well if he's pulling it from your dress, he might need to know if it's something REALLY crazy. Or you could just tuck a bunch of silly stuff in your garter.

    I bought a batman garter and plan to play the old batman theme. He doesn't know about that. But if we do anything else, I'll probably let him in on it. He'll enjoy the chance to show off and be goofy.

    I saw the vid too and plan on doing it. I'm going to tell him tho so he knows tolook for it. I'm thinking a lock, hand cuffs, baton, whip, and a cd. Pretty obvious where my head is right now. lol. I'll prob come with things that are more PG but for now ridiculous it is. I want to do something fun since we're not doing the mixed first dance anymore:-/

    We've been talking about doing something fun too! I told him as long as he doesn't pull a pair of huge chonies out I'm up for it--- I just think so many people have done it so many times. Smiley smile

    Here is another idea, I was at a wedding once where the DJ announced it was time for the garter toss, so the bride sat in her chair full of smiles and got ready for it when the groom shook his head at her and pulled her out of the chair. He then sat in the chair, the garter was on him and the bride took it off of him! It was so funny and a cute little twist to the party. That was something that sticks out when I think of their wedding.

    That video was soo funny! I really like the idea of surprising everybody with something other than the "mixed dance" I may have to do this!!!

    I'm going to by a Philadelphia Phillies thong for my FH to pull out before the garter...he and his family are Philly fans like you would not believe, so I think even the super reserved Catholic relatives will get a chuckle! I think it's adorable to do that kind of stuff.

    Was just at a wedding and the Dj told the groom to get on his knees and beg to get the garter, The bride was on a chair and the groomsmen kept moving her so he was crawling all over before he got to retrieve it. it was amusing Smiley smile

    Oh wow, I have NEVER seen anything like that!! haha. I LOVE it! =D

    Specially the handcuffs! =0x

    I'm gonna talk to FH about it, if my dress is poofy enough of course.

    Clearly in that video, everything was under her 'chair' so idk how to pull that off at our venue... Hmm!
