10 Non-Traditional Wedding Send-Off Ideas
If there’s one thing that makes for a memorable wedding, it’s the details. From your something blue and table cards to centerpieces and floral arrangements, it’s a lot of work to get everything right — and rightly so. A wedding is one of the most important events in a gal’s life! We’re here to help you cross one small (but major!) detail off your checklist: the wedding exit. Will you have your guests toss rice to send you off? Or will you go with something a little more unique? If you’re all about changing it up, check out these 11 non-traditional ways to send off the happy couple.
1. Pom-Poms: It may take a lot of work, but DIY-ing a whole bunch of pom-poms is totally worth it for both the fun photos and the quirky, colorful touch. (via Brit + Co)
2. Bubbles: Bring out your inner child by having your guests blow bubbles upon your exit. (via Getty)
3. Sparklers: Who says you actually need to throw something to celebrate the newlyweds? This couple wanted their guests to hold sparklers to light the way to their new life together. (via Getty)
4. Glow Sticks: Throwing a nighttime affair? You’re going to need some lights. Get the party started with some glow sticks that simultaneously light the couple’s exit path. (via Getty)
5. Petals: What could be more romantic than walking out in a shower of petals? Just ask Jon Snow. (via Getty)
6. Confetti Push-Pops ($3+): Colorful, mixed media confetti is all well and good, but what we’re really obsessing over are these plastic push-pops that hold it. And afterwards, your guests can keep the containers and make their own DIY pop treats.
7. Paper Planes ($225 for 225): We’re loving these neutral paper planes, but you can go with any color that fits your scheme. Stamp your initials on each plane for a unique and personalized touch. We envision an origami party in your near future…
8.Heart-Shaped Plantable Confetti($10 for 350 pieces):Heart-shaped anything is completely appropriate for an event celebrating love. This adorable confetti is handmade with wildflower seeds inside to mark where your love actually bloomed!
9. Confetti: Nothing says a party without a little confetti. You could go with neutrals or metallics, but you know what we always say: The more color, the better! (via Getty)
10. Ribbon Wands ($100+ for 125): This couple was sent off with ribbon wands that were beautifully displayed at the wedding’s entrance.
