this clarifies much.. does anyone know where this tradition sprang from? and what sort of myth revolves around it? I mean besides the catch bouquet-engagement ring thingie.. like if there is a story surrounding it?
yes I had never heard this one before, and yes I might just be from another planet ;Þ silly beans :)
or when bride groom and catcher with the garther even worse to not count that it was a wedding that spawned from the catch of the last wedding flowers *shudders*
You noticed how my fist was forming when you were merely telling about that? Airport security is more accustomed to insane making-out in airports than it is to an irate right hook.
... Especially since it is very difficult, I would think, to "accidentally" catch the bouquet? To put forth the effort to acquire it would seem to indicate some interest in the expected result.
Well, in one Dykes to Watch Out For comic, Mo was eating cake at the reception, back turned to the proceedings, and you saw the gridesmaids leaping after the flowers, and then they went SMACK down on her plate in the middle of the cake...

When both the bride and the catcher are Practitioners, this gets... interesting.

He didn't.
His friends smacked him down, even though he thought it would be a good joke.

Of course, this is why I usually consult other people before I try such things ;)
I suppose I should thank the people who told me it was a bad idea.

Flowers.
The rose is hanging upside-down from my lamp to dry, at the moment.
