Garter indecision

Hello ladies,

We're not planning to do the garter toss at our reception (I'm just not that into it and my FI has no opinion). That being said, I still want to wear one. I just think they're sexy and fun and when will I ever get to wear one again?

The thing is, and I don't know why, but I've become semi-obsessed with the idea of carrying a flask in my garter. After some extensive online searhing, I found a 1 oz. flask that I really like (I thought the 3 oz. were just too big, and I don't want THAT much alcohol under there!). Now I'm wondering: does anyone know how to make or where to buy a strap/pouch that can hold a flask and attach to a garter? I'm fairly crafty, so I think I can manage that, but I may be borrowing my sister's garter, so I don't want to alter/damage hers.

Any thoughts?

Re: Garter indecision

  • Look on etsy.com and find someone that makes garters or something similar. Inquire with them to see if they can customize.

    Maybe try an old time saloon costume type website or store as I know there used to be thigh straps for guns and flasks.
  • have you thought about how awkward it will be to have to keep reaching under your dress to sneak a sip? Is your dress large? Will it be annoying?
    Is your dress tight?  Will is show through?

    exactly.
    plus, won't you sort of flash people everytime you want a sip?
