Tossing the garter is a long-standing wedding reception tradition. It’s a playful, sometimes dramatic and always an interesting part of the evening. It, like most aspects of a wedding, is a tradition with a story behind it.

It was once believed that keeping any part of the bride’s wedding attire would bring the holder good luck. In this case, that luck results in the catcher being the next to marry. Much like the bouquet toss, all single men are in effect vying for the honors and, in turn, stumbling to the ground!

One of Talia Events’ favorite garter companies is Garter Girl. Simple and classy, their work ranges from Eco-friendly and Something Blue to Couture and Custom.
