Beautiful garters

September 24, 2009 in Things We Love... by Yadira | No comments

Bleu Garters, a California-based company, has the potential of forever changing a very popular wedding tradition–the garter toss! Really! The garters are so unique and beautiful that no bride would want to give it up. Each of their garters is handcrafted from fine silks and antique laces. They could also customize it to compliment your special day. You get to choose silks in your wedding colors, embroider your wedding date or even attach a memento from your first date.

Below are some of my favorites. Check out their website BlueGarters.com to view their entire collection. If you’re already sold on one of their designs head to ShopBlueGarters.com to shop online.
