Also, if you are wearing a mermaid or tighter fitting wedding dress, around your knee is where your dress will flare out, making this an ideal location for your garter.
You can, of course, adjust it and put it higher if that feels more comfortable. You've got a few different options when it comes to wearing a garter on your wedding day. The first is to wear the garter all day, whether or not your partner will be removing it and throwing it into a crowd later in the evening. Look for a style that's made of soft stretch lace that will lay flat against your skin instead of one made of gathered fabric.
If you've got your eye on something more ornate, you can always keep it in your purse until a few moments before the throw.
Once it's time, head to the bathroom, slip it on, and head for the dance floor. For more ideas, get gorgeous garter inspiration and discover chic lingerie for your wedding day.
