no the garter is to hold up those great old time stockings like the ones they wear in chicago.

tinserOG 2002

Sep 3, 2003

yeah, but you dont see that...cause its under the dress

hunkpapapOG 2003

controversy notwithstanding, i would want my bride to wear one. And be hot of course....

malibuOG 2001

Sep 3, 2003

well that was implied. any girl is hot on her wedding day.

hunkpapapOG 2003

I KNOW!! So many girls have gotten married and it's like WOW!!! Where did that come from? But then they revert to their original form after that day.......

thats why you get to see them all made up and what you missed out on and then you get the chance to interupt and claim them for yourself.

well SOMEONE will see it! :)

who would that be? i guess everyone, if you were a stripper on a pirate ship or soemthing.

beachbumOG 2002

Sep 4, 2003

that is very true. i mean you have to be choosy about who you show it off to, and you've got to keep the crew happy or they mutiny. it's a tough life in the crow's nest.

Wait do you mean garter as in the little thing wordly people throw at weddings... or garter BELT.. which is very hott and you should definitely wear it! hehe

#5.1 tesoroOG 2001

Sep 4, 2003

what IS a garter belt, isnt it the same thing? a garter is the lacy elastic thing that goes around the girls thigh.

#5.1.1 juicymangoOG 2003

Sep 4, 2003

haha should i post pictures??? haha... lol see VictoriasSecret.com or something

#5.1.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

A garter belt goes around the waist area i'm pretty sure and holds up the stockings

#5.1.3 g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

Sep 4, 2003

I think your right Jahanna...its the thing that goes around the thigh...

#5.1.3.1 bozoFounder

Sep 4, 2003

yeah i went to my uncles wedding (wordly) his wife had one around her upper thigh and i think he when and pulled it down with his teeth, then she threw it into the crowd of girls?or guys? very weird. but they are the same thing and it doesn't go on like a belt. i don't think a wedding dress has garter belt loop holes

g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

Sep 5, 2003

I went to a wedding too where they did the same thing. In fact in my HS I was the groom in Family Living... and my "wife" wore a garter and that whole thing was done but not only on her but also the maid of honor... I think... its been like 4 years so I dont remeber too much...

tesoro a garter is what youll be wearing at our wedding

I'm definitely wearing a garter belt (brandon, it's not the same as the little piece of lace on the thigh. It goes around your waist/hips and has little clips to attach old-fashioned stockings to. these were used before the days of pantyhose). Anyway, so I'm wearing a garter belt, but someone said I should wear a garter too. To me, its redundant and pointless unless we do the toss. am I wrong?

#5.2.1 tesoroOG 2001

Sep 4, 2003

i would anyway..it's just fun, and pretty...i mean, when are you EVER gonna wear one again?

#5.2.1.1 g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

Sep 5, 2003

Jahanna you have a point there... its not like your going to get married again Katie, so now that you have the chance wear the garter!

tesoroOG 2001

Sep 5, 2003

speaking of which...ya know how worldly people sometimes renew their vows? (like sharon and ozzy, haha) can witnesses do that? no right?

skaorsk8OG 2002

Sep 5, 2003

definitely not. the society says "what's the point?" which is true. what is the point.

just have a party. with old people. and do the chicken dance.

tesoroOG 2001

Sep 5, 2003

yea, thats true..i think it's just really sweet, like after 20 years or something you love eachother more than ever and want to express it. but i agree, thats supposed to be assumed. haha

g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

Sep 5, 2003

Is that how we are going to be tesoro?? Ti Amo :)

tesoroOG 2001
