If you ask friends who are married if they still have their garter, you will probably get the same answer from all of them. Sure, they have their garter put away in a special place and when they take it out, all their wedding memories come back to life. The garter means something different to every woman and each one is special.
Some brides-to-be will have their garter made of the same fabric as their gown and others might shop for theirs online. Wedding garters are found in all types of fabrics, laces, ribbons and custom additions. There are charms that can be added for that personal touch or you can stick with the traditional silk and bow. The options for garters will make it hard for you to choose just one.
The garter a bride chooses is often the blue part of the “something blue” from the famous poem, something old – something new – something borrowed – something blue. Blue lace, blue satin ribbon and blue trim are all options for a garter for your big day. There is an almost endless variety of garters to choose from so you are sure to find just the right one that will become your treasured keepsake.
