Okay, okay, I know this might make me unpopular, but we did (and loved) both a garter toss and a bouquet toss. We’re among the first of our friends to get married, and have a ton of younger cousins, so we had plenty of willing participants. What can I say, we like tradition.

With all the craziness of the storm/power outage, our timeline had been thrown out the window and we almost forgot about the garter and bouquet tosses. Our band reminded us at the very end of the night, and so we just jumped up on stage and improvised.

Please excuse the disheveled bride and groom in these photos- we had been enjoying a packed dance floor for a solid two hours before these photos were taken! My updo was no match for humidity, rain, hail, and many dance floor twirls- and I was having so much fun that I couldn’t have cared less.

Mr. Tiramisu gets the crowd going:

Dear Dress,
I am so sorry.
But I had so much fun.
I promise the mud was worth it.
Love, Mrs. Tiramisu

Victorious!

Here he gets some counsel from a surely-sober guest.

Don’t get any ideas BIL Tiramisu, that maid of honor is happily married!

My turn! Who wants it!?

See, it was really so mean of me to force my friends to try to catch the bouquet. No one wanted it at all.

Especially not this girl:

Up it goes:

Were any of you really wondering who would catch it?
