Garter Toss

The garter toss is a funny tradition. It's sometimes hilarious, sometimes awkward, sometimes a bit inappropriate. But, it's tradition, and it's your day - you're allowed to be a bit inappropriate. :) I have admitted before that I am a lyric nazi, and check all of the songs that go on my page for their appropriateness for a wedding (after all, your grandma is usually there) but not for these songs. So use them at your own discretion. Also, the whole process usually doesn't take too long, so you can always have the person who is in control of the music just play a particular part in the song. This is a list of my personal favorite garter toss songs. No matter your style as a couple, there should be something for you in this list. Have fun!
