Plus-size brides.... garters- ack!

Oh god i hadn't even thought about this...my thunder thighs in a garter are gonna be a disaster. hopefully someone will post a good solution

My FMIL bought me one, even though I'm not doing a garter toss she said i should have one. Hate those things and why would I want it on my fat leg!

Why do you need it? It has a super weird and creepy history

I'm not even doing a toss, but I wanted one. I thought you know bustier, pretty panties, thigh highs, it would complete the bridal look, and be "sexy".... I think I thought wrong

Same here @TheFutureMrsWade I'm not doing a toss I just wanted something flirty and bridal for the honeymoon but idk

Hmm I haven't even tried mine on. The thought had never crossed my mind. Guess I should go dig that sucker out and put it on my thunder thighs.

Oh damn I didn't think of this. My thighs rub together like nobody's business. F--- it, maybe I won't even wear one we're not doing the toss anyway

A friend of mine got an adjustable set from Amazon and she liked it. I didn't want one, I just didn't see the point and honestly DH wouldn't have even noticed if I had one on (to me, why have the added discomfort if its not necessary).

I'm thinking of making one. Hopefully it doesn't make my leg look like a sausage! 

This right here is one of the only wedding things that I have been deliberately putting off out of embarrassment. I haven't even talked to FH about whether we're even doing a garter toss, but I have a feeling he'll want to. It's a lucky thing guys don't see us the way we see ourselves sometimes!

Haha omg I hadn't even thought of that! My leg will look unfortunate with a tight one. If you find a good one, let us know!!

I make them!! ( I'm a cancan dancer ) and a bunch of us girls make them and sell them by donation at our gigs! ( we are a non profit group) we all styles, sizes, fabrics and colors! I know that one size doesn't fit all and I would love to be part of that pay it forward and send you one if you'd like!

I'd LOVE that!! Message me to connect and I'll get you my address

Why don't you just put it on right before you are going to show it off or toss it? No one but your spouse will see it anyway!

I will be skipping it all together. I don't need any added friction there. All of my undergarments that day are going to be function over fashion and I plan on telling FH that so he doesn't get his hopes up.

I found an Etsy seller that custom makes garters, and the price is not too bad

@elyse - I 100% agree. I was thrilled when I found a pair of ivory plain panties at the Victoria's Secret outlet and declared them my wedding day panties. I showed them to FH and he was all disappointed and was like "those are your wedding day panties?" I said YES! I need comfortable panties that day, but don't worry those are just wedding day panties, not wedding night .

Yandy.com has some and wedding night lingerie for reasonable prices! goodluck!!

I am skipping it all together. I have never understood the reason behind it. I looked hard to find a modest dress that didn't look like I was showing everyone my body, but still looked nice. I didn't even want a strapless gown as that is too revealing to me(yes I am the woman at a pool who has a skirt suit and a one piece so I don't show too much skin). So why would I want FH climbing around under my dress and lifting it up past my thigh to pull clothing off me? I say if you don't like it skip it.

Get the weird sticky stuff that they sometimes use on undies, I got one with that on it from Etsy & it stayed the whole time. I had 1 to throw & 1 that I kept on.
