Mr. Fro Yo does not want to do the garter toss, and I don’t care that much, so it looks like we will be forgoing that tradition. However, does that mean that I don’t get to wear one? I don’t need one as my something blue, as my blue shoes have that covered. But I still think it’s a fun tradition to wear a garter. I stumbled across these beauties from Bleu Garters, and now I want one even more.
They are little pricey, though. Maybe an Etsy seller will have something comparable for much less. It’s worth a look.
Did you choose a unique garter? Where did you find it?

I purchased my custom set of garters (more info in a future post, I promise!) from Peterene on Etsy. Definitely try to work with someone to make what you have in mind for the right price!
Those are really pretty garters. I wore a University of Michigan garter as my “something blue” even though we weren’t doing the garter toss.
I came across Bleu Garters a while back somehow and I thought then that they were so pretty.
I think the first one is my favorite. Not sure yet if I’ll be wearing a garter.
If you had the patience, it probably wouldn’t be that hard to make one with some lace, beads and ribbon.
I love the lacey/ vintagey ones. We’re not doing a garter toss either, so I’m still debating on whether or not I’ll wear one.
Wow, those are very pretty. I especially like the 3rd one! We aren’t doing a garter goss either, but I did pick one up at Fredericks anyway. 
Its more of a “surprise” for him, its black & leopard print!
wow, those are stunning! I like the middle 2 the best!
…oh, umm, excuse me as I wipe the drool off of my chin….these are fabulous!!
I love these! I decided to DIY mine and will be sharing soon. I love the vintage feel
Really glam! I’m getting a redneck garter lol it’s his favorite college basketball team
Those are stunning. Try your nice fabric store in town, fussy-cut a small bit of lace and attach a nice ribbon. Fussy cut means intricately cut around the lace pattern.
I LOVE those. But would never have worn any of them because I know I’d be the bride hiking up her skirt all night to show off the garter… and I think i’d end up with some very embarrassing photos. 
those are purdy! wow, I kinda want a garter now! I wonder if I can find one now?
So beautiful! Never seen a garter could be that elegant. We didn’t do a garter toss as well but looking at these garter, I would probably wore one if it’s as pretty as these!
Those are really beautiful. Almost makes me want to reconsider wearing the one I got from a wedding when I was about 7 years old. I still have no idea how I came home with it, but it’s light blue and lacy and my sister and I used to wear it as a headband when we played dress up. It’s my something old and blue!
Have you checked out Florrie Mitten on Etsy?

I ordered mine from her and LOVE IT!
It kind of reminds me of the ones pictured about, but it was only $49.
Wow, We’re not doing a garter toss either but I never thought of wearing one just to wear one…this changes everything. Thanks so much!
hhhmmm… I may have to insert garters into my daily wardrobe just so I can have the chance to wear one of these babies

I went to college in Boston and have a special place in my heart for the Northeast. I love reading, shopping, wine, reuniting with college friends that are scattered across the country, reality TV, trying out new recipes, and attempting all the DIY projects that come along with wedding planning. I'm a "bleeding heart, save the world type" and thankfully my job allows me to work on legislation and policy to help out those in need. I met Mr. Frozen Yogurt in a bar, though he doesn't even drink! And now we are planning a modern yet vintage wedding in Dallas while dealing with the trials and tribulations of first time homeownership.
