After eating some delicious cake, drinking a little more and of course, more boogie-time, it was time to toss that bouquet!
I had a toss bouquet made by the florist, because I’m totally sentimental and couldn’t imagine my bouquet being ripped to shreds by single ladies. I wish I could tell you that I did something creative with my bouquet, but nope, it’s just dry, sitting on a shelf in my craft room. ::sigh:: (ideas are welcome at this point)
Anywho, the DJ started playing Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” and a crowd of fiercely competitive women gathered near the balcony. They were ready.
Uhm, yeah. You gotta love how my MOH is really going in for the kill here. 
Victory for Mizz K!
After that, it was time for a sweet moment with Mr. Ballet Flat. He took off my garter in the balcony waiting area, so no one saw my pasty thunder thighs. Whew…
Now, don’t laugh too hard at my lack of memory. The Ballet Flats cannot remember the song that played during the garter toss. Oops!
Anyway, lookie here! I think it’s so so cute how the little boys in front are just staring Mr. BF down, ready to get that garter! I wonder if these kids know what it means to catch the garter.
The reach…
… and the winner! You can see there were some surprised faces there!!
After that fun was over, it was time to get back on that dance floor and earn some green! Stay tuned.

These are great! I love the faces of anticipation (and competition)!!!
Awww, fun times!!! I love a little competition at weddings 
so fun to see these traditions in action - the picture of Mr. Ballet Flat taking off the garter is precious!
glad to see a little competitive spirit out there for the tosses!
Hey! Mizz K is wearing the same dress all of my bridesmaids wore! I wonder how I never noticed this before!
Cool pics. I had to redo my bouquet toos as no one caught the first time.
The difference in expressions between the gals/guys before the tosses is hilarious! Your girls are fierce!
My friend sent some of her flowers away to a company that makes dried flowers into beads and makes them into jewlery. I am hoping to do the same thing with my bouquet! I do not know the website off the top of my head, but I’m sure you could search for it! That way she has a small piece of her wedding that she carries with her!
HAHAHAHAHA that looks fun! We didn’t have a bouquet toss or garter toss but that looks so fun!

Mrs. Ballet Flat, New Orleans Age and Occupation: 24, Geographic Information Systems Analyst Fiance's Age and Occupation: 26, IT Analyst Engagement Date: March 16, 2008 Wedding Date: May, 2009 Blogging Since: September 25, 2008 Venue: St. Charles Borromeo Church/Jefferson-Orleans North About Me: I absolutely love wedding planning, spending time with Mr. Ballet Flat, various crafts, watching football, baking, pop music, bargain hunting and ice cream. My idea of a great date night is dinner and clearance shopping with Mr. Ballet Flat! I currently live below sea level in the suburbs near New Orleans, where I make maps all day, everyday for my job. I'm slowly becoming more and more obsessed with anything New Orleans related for our wedding, and I can't wait for the big day!
