The toss of the bouquet followed by the garter is often an important part of weddings in the UK. The garter is worn by the bride under her gown, until such time that the groom removes it and tosses it to the throng of bachelors present during the wedding reception. You can search through many wedding garters from Internet-based shops nowadays. Most of these garters are laced and have ribbons and other adornments. Apart from the lacey variety, silk garters can be obtained as well from many designers. Some designers also allow their client to customise the wedding garter.
