Garters for the Bride

The tra­di­tion of the garter for the bride dates back to quite dis­tant times. Garters were once exclu­sive­ly a mat­ter of neces­si­ty and only then became such a sym­bol­ic part of the bride’s wardrobe. In gen­er­al, they were attached to stock­ings with rib­bons and oth­er ties to keep them, that is, stock­ings. As a result, it became sym­bol­ic that the groom removed the wed­ding garters from the bride on their wed­ding night. Now the garter is worn in the amount of one piece, and it is already exclu­sive­ly sym­bol­ic, since it does not hold any stock­ings — those times have already passed. But even now the groom has to pull the garters with his beloved. There­fore, garters for the bride are cho­sen care­ful­ly so that they look coquet­tish and ele­gant on the leg. Let’s look at how to choose the right ele­ment of the wed­ding wardrobe, so that both the bride and the groom are sat­is­fied.

Wedding garters for the bride

Rub­ber band or tape? On sale, you can most often find garters with elas­tic bands, which are easy to put on for the bride and quite easy for the groom to pull togeth­er. But it is worth pay­ing atten­tion to the fact that such garters must be cho­sen very, very care­ful­ly, since too tight elas­tic can cause quite unpleas­ant sen­sa­tions and itch­ing. There­fore, try to try on the garter before buy­ing, to be sure that it does not press you any­where, and you do not expe­ri­ence dis­com­fort. But if you are mak­ing a pur­chase via the Inter­net, and there is no pos­si­bil­i­ty of try­ing on, then pay atten­tion to the garters, which are fas­tened with rib­bon ties. Such mod­els are less com­mon, but they are no less com­fort­able and beau­ti­ful.

Design and col­or scheme. When choos­ing a garter for the bride’s leg, it is nec­es­sary to decide in advance on its design. For exam­ple, it can be a sim­ple clas­sic garter dec­o­rat­ed with rib­bons and ruf­fles, but there are also more orig­i­nal options, like garters with lace flow­ers. It all depends sole­ly on your taste pref­er­ences, as well as the style of the bride’s dress, because the garter should be in har­mo­ny with it. If you can’t find some­thing in the stores that would per­fect­ly match your wish­es, you can order a hand­made bridal garter or even make it your­self, which will be quite sym­bol­ic. Regard­ing the col­or scheme. White is con­sid­ered a clas­sic col­or, but, as you know, in our time it is cus­tom­ary to break stereo­types and stan­dards. There­fore, for exam­ple, a red or blue bridal garter will look chic and so on.
