While at a recent wedding reception and seeing the garter toss, a friend and I had a conversation about it. We wondered what on earth started this tradition and why. I therefore, decided to research and find out. It is an old tradition that in days past was to show proof of the bride and groom's consummation.
If you want to read more on the history, go to the following website:
