I had a garter which is shown in one photo, but I think it was loaned from
my sister. If it had been mine it would have been stored in my keepsakes

I have seen several garters hanging from car mirrors though:-)

Hi T!
Just a thought to chew on. When my son got married I made
his darling bride a garter. A very dear friend of mine designed
and made a pair of wedding moths for them. (In England they
sew lace bits to the wedding dress or veil)

Ooh I've never heard of these customs for weddings, what is the significance of
them?

My hubby and I had just a small, family wedding. There weren't
particularly any bachelors to catch my garter so we kept it. DH hung it
from his rear view mirror!! It stayed there until it disintegrated from
the sunlight hitting it. It was a store-bought one as I didn't know
anything about hand
