    wedding Garter

    Okay, my wife refuses to do the "Removing of the garter" trick at the wedding. So I am going to wear it and have her remove it. So anyone make tartan garters?

    If it's a garter you must toss, you could consider getting a pair of traditional tie garters that keep your hose up and giving those away. Hide the normal elastic bands without the flashes to keep your hose up after that part of the reception party.

    If your bride is going to go fishing up your kilt for the garter, why not surprise everyone and have her pull out a tartan tie? Since you are breaking tradition, have the guys catch something they could use.

    Regards,
    Rex.

    Sorry...but I wouldn't wear anything around my neck that some dude was hiding under his kilt. I doubt I would even try to catch it. Run away...run away! Anyone have a HASMAT suit?

    Sorry, just couldn't resist. Lots of images came to mind and I had to let them out.

    That is exactly what came to my mind.

    Grand idea over all!
