“For
the Birds”--Alternatives to Throwing Rice
By Meredyth
Sajna
I’m
sure you’ve all been to a wedding where
you’ve been required to hurl rice at the
bride and groom as they exit the ceremony or
reception location. Sure it’s fun, but
now its your turn, and you don’t want
100 plus guests throwing smelly birdseed at
you, making you a target for every bird in town,
and ruining your $1,000 designer gown.
Here
are some fun alternatives to throwing rice:
Bubbles
Everyone from the young and old enjoys bubbles.
Although this might be a bit messy, using bubbles
to celebrate the exit of the bride and groom
has become very popular. Using bubbles is a
great way for the guests to have fun and wind
down before the reception. Plus, photographers
love the images they can create with bubbles
in the air.
Rose
Petals
Your florist can always provide you with extra
rose petals at a minimal cost so your guests
can toss them at you. Although this could get
messy if you step on a petal, it is a cute idea
and won’t hurt as much as birdseed.
Kazoos
No, your guests won’t be throwing the
kazoos at you and your groom. Round up a trusty
relative, have him teach your guests a familiar
tune, and as you and your groom exit, have them
play this rousing tune on the kazoos.
Having
kazoos also gives the guests an extra favor
from your wedding. You can also use these at
the reception. Instead of clinking the glass
for those lovely reception kisses, having the
guests blow on their kazoos when they want to
see you and your groom lock lips.
Butterflies
A popular trend during the past few years is
releasing butterflies into the air as you and
the groom exit. There are ads in wedding magazines
for different companies that will ship butterflies
for your guests to release.
Doves
Doves are a symbol of peace, so releasing doves
after your wedding ceremony is a good way to
start a peaceful marriage.
