Alice and Dave's Wedding

Wedding Photos: Bouquet and Thesis Toss

There's the tradition of throwing the bouquet at all the unmarried people. The problem is, with our group of friends, it usually is avoided and quite often falls uncaught to the ground. There's also the tradition of the garter toss, which we both thought was dumb. So instead, alyse tossed a copy of her (approved) thesis draft at all the ungraduated people. Note the difference in enthusiasm. :)

Bouquet Toss Thesis Toss
On your mark... first of all, notice how much closer everyone is on the thesis photos.
For the bouquet, at least Josh (white shirt) responded. Everyone else just stared blankly. On the right, only Sylvia (far right) isn't reacting.
The bouquet has a pretty good hang time, but still, no one's moving. For the thesis, Josh goes up for it...
Josh and Eugene make a courteous show of going for the bouquet. Not that anyone else is. For the thesis, Eugene rejects Josh's attempt by bouncing the thesis back up in the air!
Josh and Eugene decide that they're too close and back off, while a somewhat puzzled Proven extends his right hand and catches the bouquet. "Gosh, look what I found." :) Josh catches the rebound and starts his victory dance; good luck in graduating. :)
