Bouquet and Garter Tosses can be a tricky event at your reception. Most of the time, when it's time for the single women to get to the floor to catch the bouquet, most of them rush up, push and shove each other all over trying to catch that beautiful bundle of flowers! But it can be a bit of a different story when it's time for the Garter Toss. A few guys may come out to the floor, but the others may be hesitant or even flat out REFUSE to get out there! C'mon guys! So...what do you do to get them excited about getting involved? One word. Bribery. #noshame #gartertossbribery

​​Booze/Beer - Seriously. Most guys will run for the chance to win a six pack of beer or a bottle of a popular liquor. Have your DJ announce that whoever catches the garter gets a bottle (or 6)! Bet you'll have a packed dance floor.

​
Cash - Everyone loves cash. Snap that garter around a football (or similar item) and tuck a $20 in it. See how many of those boys get out there for a chance at some green. ​

Invite Everyone - Ok, so this isn't bribery. But to avoid the traditional idea of whoever catches the garter is the next to get married (traditionally to the woman who catches the bouquet), invite all of the men present out to the floor. You can still include one or both of the above-mentioned bribes if you'd like, but this way, there's less pressure for the catcher to tie his own knot. 
​


These ideas can also work great for a Bouquet Toss, if you think you'll need it to get your friends and family involved and having a great time! ​
