Golly - I so don't want to do this, but my FH is so cute about the "traditional' things. My compromise is to give my bouquet to the bride who has been married the longest. Besides - we're 40--- the single ladies are few and far between, 12 or lesbians. I think my fun gay friend John would get up there - that would be fun.

Oh my... if only we had met at 25.

TP I am doing the same thing as you. We are having an anniversary dance (thanks to some of the great ideas I got from some of the girls on here), and are giving it and the garter to the longest married couple. I liked that idea.

I never cared for the bouquet toss when I was single, so I skipped it (as well as the garter) entirely at my wedding. As PP said, most of our friends are already married or involved anyway.

TPgal - congrats on your upcoming wedding. I have to say I've got you beat agewise - I'm almost 50! And this is my first wedding, too! So I definitely didn't want to do a garter and bouquet toss. Instead, I'm giving a bouquet to a friend whose wedding I was in 25 years ago who will be celebrating their anniversary 2 days after our wedding. And she just had open-heart surgery, so I think the gesture will mean even more to her. FH will probably give the garter to my friend's husband, too.

I agree, but am kind of torn. I never did like getting in front of everyone to try to catch the bouquet, so I want to have a dance for all the married couples and eliminate them one by one by the years they have been married, and who ever was the last to be dancing would get my bouquet and garter. I think it's gonna be my grandparents, so I don' t know about the garter, don't think my grandpa would be thrilled with that. We will probably end up doing the traditional tosses. Any other suggestions??

We've decided to forego the traditional tosses as well. We are only 30 and 31, but still most of our friends are already married or are happily single and not likely to get married, so we both felt it best not to put them in the uncomfortable situation of deciding whether or not to go out on the dance floor for these events (this was largely based on our own personal experiences). Like others, we plan to give my boquet to the couple that has been married the longest.

As far as the garter goes, we have seen it done tastefully, but we have also seen a lot that have gone the other way, so we opted to just skip it all together. I will still wear a garter, but that will be for just the two of us later :)

I think we are going to do it, but mainly because of tradition. Honestly I could live without it but don't want to take my bouquet home with me. Most of the "single" ladies will probably be 20 and under mostly children actually, but they should be able to feel special too!
