Wedding Garter Toss

A tradition that everyone looks forward to is the throwing of the wedding garter, which takes place towards the end of the reception, following the bridal bouquet toss. The bride will wear a garter on her right leg above her knee, when seated the groom cheered on by all the males in the room will remove the garter normally with his teeth and toss it to the single men. Traditionally, the person who catches the garter is next in line to be married.
