Garters! Originally intended to hold up stockings, the wedding variety are seen as good luck charms or, when tossed, the male equivalent of catching the bouquet (the removal and tossing of the garter is apparently also symbolic of the "deflowering" of the bride- another reason to be embarrassed when your new spouse starts digging around under your dress in front of a room full of people). If you decide to partake in this tradition, there are lots of unique garters to choose from. These have a handmade quality to them that is extra special- you might even wind up chasing down the garter catcher to ask for it back!
