When my sister got married, she wore the groom's badge pinned to her garter. The garter was made by her and her sorority sisters in the sorority colors. Part of the tradition was that the bride-to-be, in this case my sister, was the one to sew the letters on it. After the groom removed the garter, he presented it to my sister (the bride). She removed the badge from the garter and presented both back to her husband. This was symbolic in that she had "replaced" his fraternity badge with the wedding ring.
FYI: Being the nimble kid that I was, I caught it! And I still have it. I offered it back to her years later, but she said it was part of her wedding memories. Her little brother out jumping all these "grown men" to get it.
