Retro and Vintage Weddings

Okay, not vintage, but CUTE.

I want a cute garter, something to surprise Tom with that he will really enjoy. I started seeing sports teams garters and I found this, a Chicago Bears garter on Etsy. There are a bunch of them and they rotate, so I probably won't end up with this exact one, but isn't it cute?? And it actually matches. Notice our colors are peach and tiffany blue? A girlier version of Bears colors? That was no accident, sadly. :) Anyway, is this a cute idea? (If it hasn't become obvious, he's a big Bears fan, we're both originally from Chicago) I'm only worried it will show through a dress. But I don't think that'll happen, because the material will be at least a little thick and I want a tiffany blue crinoline...sorry got lost fantasizing about pretty dresses...Sooo, there that is. Can you tell I'm on a mission to get this board cookin?

  • Great Job Kitka! Sure the one day I have computer issues the board is going. LOL. I too am doing a dallas cowboys garter for FI. He has been a cowboys nut since age two :) PIP if you want to see it. I love your too!
  • If, by some chance, your garter does show through under your dress then just keep it in your little purse and put it on right before the garter removal.  :D

    I was just looking at garters on etsy yesterday.  I think I'm going to DIY.  :D
