Various colors and designs of wedding garters for your pick
![]() |
During the bygone days, the bridegroom usually removed his bride’s wedding garters after the wedding ceremony and right before leaving the wedding place.
Normally, he kept one piece as a symbol of having won the ‘trophy’, which happens to be the bride. The other piece is thrown over his shoulder to the group of men, who are still unwedded. The person who manages it to grab the garter is said to be the next in line to get married. Some couples still maintain this special tradition until now while others do not.
If you are planning to do so, then, check out the virtual world for a large selection of colors, materials and designs of wedding garters. There are lovely shades of blue, cream and other colors of various lacy designs on the online market for your pick. Some of them have rhinestones and others do not. The blessing of the couple by the guests is another age-old tradition, which is still practiced until today.
During the olden days, it was common to use rice to shower and bless the wedded couple after the ceremony. Nowadays, it is possible to opt for other items like bubbles and confetti as wedding shower if you do not like the idea of using rice.
