I think it's become antiquated and simply enforces the idea that women are nobodies until they're married. Everybody is supposed to be so determined to be the next one to get married?
Every wedding I've been to has had the garter catcher put the garter on the bouquet catcher, usually to very risque music (like the Stripper) with hooting and hollering for him to put it higher and higher. I'm not comfortable with it and therefore have always avoided catching the bouquet. I've had cousins fight over the bouquet though and injure themselves.
Smashing cake in each other's face is the other thing I don't like. You just vowed to honor, respect, love and cherish this person and you finish off the night with smashing cake in their face? You paid how much for that dress and tux to have it get frosting all over it? You paid how much to have your make up done that morning? You spend major time and money to ensure that you look your best that day only to have cake all over your face? I just don't get it.
