Actually, the bride's garter is thrown, not garter belt. They both originated by holding stockings up (garters don't anymore), but the garter goes around her thigh. If she was wearing a garter belt, it would go around her waist and have elasticised straps with alligator clips that grip her stockings.

I'm in Seussical right now! I had no clue how badly the original Broadway production did! It's so great!
