mike is the same way.. he agrees with most of the wedding stuff but there are a few things that he wants a certain way..

Those darn boys! Always rearing their ugly opinions on the things that count!

Re: Dead set against........

I think we are going to do the oldest couple gets the bouquet and garter. That looks like so much fun in Jenn's piics.

Re: Dead set against........

We're not doing it either for the same reason..we think it takes away from the dancing.

Re: Dead set against........

I like the idea that someone just posted about doing it after the ceremony so it is out of the way. Perhaps I could toss it over my shoulder as I am getting into the limo. Another idea is to toss it right before I leave the reception. I really don't want to do the garter toss. I think it is a little tacky and awkward and I once went to a wedding where a 35 year old guy caught the garter and a 12 year old girl caught the bouquet. He was nice about it though. He got down on this knees and put on a show of stretching and cracking his knuckes and then put it on her arm!!

Re: Dead set against........

I loved that we did the anniversary dance as well. We had three couples married 55+ years and they were so cute. Everyone was rooting them all on by the end! DH did remove my garter but we didn't have the winners put the garter on each other. DH's parents neighbors won. We actually thought it would have been DH's grandparents and grandpa can barely see and grandma had no clue what was even going on - so can you imagine them trying to do that - it would have taken at least 20 minutes to explain what they need to do. The couple that won was so excited. It was all too cute!!!

I wish I had my pictures scanned from it!

Re: Dead set against........

we are not doing it either - and no one expected me too sinc ei hate having to go up there and "try" to catch it!
