Flower toss

What do I do if I don't want to toss my flowers? or do I have to?

The florist will usually ask you if you want a tossing bouquet which is just like yours but only smaller. Or you could make a fake one to save money. You don't actually toss yours in case you want to get it preserved or freeze dried.

Thank you so very much,

No you don't have to toss anything.  You can just skip the whole bouquet/garter thing.

I am getting a toss bouquet but won't be tossing it. We're going to give the garter and the bouquet to the longest married couple @ the wedding.

You don't have to do anything.  I am skipping this tradition.

Another idea I saw was to make a bouque out of scratch and wins lotto cards and toss that.

We're skipping the garder/bouquet thing all together

Ditto pps

But I just wanted to mention often the florist will throw in the toss bouquet for free...mine did.

We are skipping this tradition too.  But my florist did ask me if I wanted a toss bouquet so if you are going to toss something, they will make a small bouquet specificially for that purpose.

I'm skipping it... no one actually wants to do it.  It's embarrassing.

I did the bouquet toss, but we had a large group of friends who are not married yet so there was a large crowd for both the bouquet and garter toss and they were both a lot of fun. To answer OP's question, I did what a lot of pp's mentioned and had the florist make a smaller "toss bouquet" so I didn't have to toss my bridal bouquet.

Nope. I didn't. I've actually never been to a wedding where the bride tossed a bouquet.

If you want to toss, but not yours, the florist will make you a tossing bouquet- smaller usually.
