These days it&#8217;s more about fun than tradition, which means you need just the right song to enhance the atmosphere. Here&#8217;s 10 suitably cheeky garter toss songs&#8230;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Mission: Impossible theme song<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><div class=\"embed-container\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XAYhNHhxN0A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen> frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/p>\n<p>Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to retrieve your new wife\u2019s garter from high on her thigh and then throw it to the ranks of single men to see who\u2019s going to be next down the aisle. Done in the right spirit, this one would be a hoot.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Jaws theme song<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><div class=\"embed-container\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/A9QTSyLwd4w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen> frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/p>\n<p>Along the same Hollywood-related note, try John Williams\u2019 iconic score from one of the most terrifying films of all time. After all, it has a good rhythm going, so it\u2019s just a matter of letting your fingers do the walking as you head into danger territory..<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Hot in Herre<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><div class=\"embed-container\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GeZZr_p6vB8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen> frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s getting hot in here, so take off all your clothes.\u201d Thanks for the suggestion Nelly, but if it\u2019s alright with you, we might just stick to the garter. A great garter toss song guaranteed to bring out the inner showman in the groom.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>U Can\u2019t Touch This<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><div class=\"embed-container\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/otCpCn0l4Wo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen> frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/p>\n<p>A retro MC Hammer hit that lends itself to a humourous take on the whole thing. Just imagine. Your groom comes close, ready to retrieve his prize, when suddenly there\u2019s a hand in his face: \u201cCan\u2019t touch this\u201d. It will bring the house down.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>You Can Leave Your Hat On<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><div class=\"embed-container\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4b04jq7NB1s?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen> frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/p>\n<p>The garter\u2019s coming off, but your hat? No way! This Joe Cocker classic \u2013 popularised in film, of course, by Kim Basinger \u2013 is a staple of such ceremonies because it sounds exactly how a garter removal should sounds. Enough said.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Lay Your Hands On Me<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><div class=\"embed-container\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/EhjSzibOIH4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen> frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/p>\n<p>Bon Jovi mightn\u2019t seem like an obvious choice for removing a garter, but the title of this song says it all. And if your groom is a bit of a rocker at heart, it\u2019s also the perfect soundtrack to bring out his inner air guitar and hair metal skills.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Stripper<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/5bLX06yR3wY?list=RD5bLX06yR3wY\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/5bLX06yR3wY?list=RD5bLX06yR3wY<\/a><\/p>\n<p>When burlesque queen Dita Von Teese calls a tune one of the best striptease songs of all time, you know it\u2019s doing something right. With a perfect beat for peeling off a garter, it has just the right mix of tease and spice. Let the fun begin.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Danger Zone<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><div class=\"embed-container\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/siwpn14IE7E?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen> frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/p>\n<p>If it\u2019s good enough for<em> Top Gun<\/em>, it\u2019s good enough for us. But only if you\u2019re prepared to have fun. Because there\u2019s no way to be taken seriously as Kenny Loggins blasts lyrics such as \u201crevvin\u2019 up your engine, listen to her howlin\u2019 roar\u201d.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Bootylicious<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><div class=\"embed-container\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IyYnnUcgeMc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen> frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/p>\n<p>Gorgeous femme fatales come front and centre in this tune, which is guaranteed to get the crowd dancing along. It\u2019s a funky reminder that while he might be the one who\u2019s removing the garter, you&#8217;re the one who\u2019s letting him.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Sexyback<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><div class=\"embed-container\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3gOHvDP_vCs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen> frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/p>\n<p>Justin Timberlake has a pretty good line in sensual songs, which he channels perfectly through this chart topper. It\u2019s guaranteed to make any groom look and feel sexy and suave. And better this one than a number from his N\u2019Sync days.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Looking for the perfect wedding band or DJ to rock your wedding day? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/Weddingmusic\/\">Begin looking he<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/Weddingmusic\/\">re.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":33092,"template":"","au_article_tag":[64,74,65,39,73,47,63,51],"class_list":["post-33081","au-article","type-au-article","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","au_article_category-lingerie","au_article_category-weddingmusic","au_article_tag-bride","au_article_tag-garter","au_article_tag-groom","au_article_tag-wedding","au_article_tag-wedding-garter","au_article_tag-wedding-ideas","au_article_tag-wedding-inspiration","au_article_tag-weddings"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/au-article\/33081"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/au-article"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/au-article"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/au-article\/33081\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/33092"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=33081"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"au_article_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/au_article_tag?post=33081"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
