Garter toss alternative: a bottle of booze under lock and key
Not a fan of tossing undergarments to a group of guests? We hear you, and so does bride Diana, of Legend of Zelda wedding fame. She wasn’t keen on tossing a garter so she and her groom Trey devised a garter toss alternative involving some free booze!
Here’s how it all went down…
Wear your activity tracker on your garter
Wondering where you’re gonna put your wearable tech on your wedding day? Do what Ruby did, and pop your Fitbit (or other activity tracker) on your garter, and watch as you rack up some impressive data.
Laura & David’s DIY hippie geeky wedding
You know the saying, “They broke the mould when they made you” often applies to Offbeat Brides. DIY, tattoos, petals, suspenders, outdoors, love, this wedding has it all.

Fab dreads, skull flask garters, and a groom in shining armor
Karly and Steve are my new deadlock heroes. Karly’s two-tone updo is just gorgeous. This week’s reader submissions were full of other amazing shots, too, like skull-patterned flask garters, a groom in shining armor, an air plant bouquet, and a sidewalk chalked save-the-date. All of these submissions are making 2013 start off with a bang.

Alternative garters for sexy, geeky, and bad-ass legs
Beth wore both a Joker garter AND a Wonder Woman garter to honor her and her groom’s geekdom loves. I loved this so much that I had to seek and find some other offbeat garters for the extra special offbeat leg to don. I found goth garters, Doctor Who garters, Harry Potter garters, and even a zombie garter.
