Every girl needs a little bit of mystery in her life; A special little something that only you know about. Maybe it is so sweet and exciting that you eventually decide to share it with your spouse, or a select few so that they may share in the sweet little secret. What better way to illustrate this topic than with a garter!
Why do brides wear garters? Well, it is said to be one of the oldest, if not the oldest wedding tradition, dating back to the dark ages. A brief history, found HERE:
"It is said that in the days of old the bride and groom had to consummate their marriage. But in order for it to be proven it was common tradition to have people like family and friends come into the room with the couple to witness it. The "witnesses" would obtain the garter as "proof" of the consummation. Also having any article of the under garments was considered to be good luck so sometimes things would get out of hand in the newlywed's bedroom as crazed onlookers snatched at clothing to get for good luck. This was not appreciated much by the bride nor many grooms, hence the groom started tossing the garter out so that no one would need to obtain it themselves."
Whether you are an old-fashioned or modern bride, you can take part in this frilly undergarment adoration. If you are looking for a bridal garter that is memento-worthy, look no further than the custom creations at Garter Glitz in Golden, CO. Here is a glimpse into what this company is all about:
“We see all types of brides who take such pride in their appearance on their wedding day, picking out the perfect gown, shoes, and flowers. It is difficult for us to watch them slip on an inferior garter that detracts from all their efforts. Since our garters are one-of-a-kind you get something that is elegant and uniquely yours. Also, carrying sizes is very important to us, because we want each bride to have something that is actually wearable. Many women buy fancy lingerie, not to be shown off, but because of how it makes her feel. These lovely garters are made with the same idea; to be something special for you.”
