The reception is wrapping up. The bride and groom have just finished their last dance. The guests are heading out the door for the big exit. They are grabbing something from the basket by the door to throw as the bride and groom leave for the night. What will it be?
I have seen a lot of things thrown, blown, and sparkled as the bride and groom have left their wedding/reception.

I see rose petals and birdseed the most. I have seen confetti (top right picture) and it looks great for pictures. But I would keep in mind, a lot of venues do not allow confetti for clean-up and environmental purposes. They do make “environmentally-safe” confetti now, called ecofetti, but there are still venues that do not allow it. I would check with the venue first before you decide on what you want to use.
I love the middle right picture that I found on Holli B.’s blog. The bride and/or the groom were in the medical field and they decided to have their guests throw something symbolic for them. What a neat and personalized idea!
Now, I absolutely LOVE the bottom left picture for a fall wedding. How fitting and perfect! I love the colors, the leaves, everything! We are entering the fall season, so all you fall brides—take note of this cute idea!
And, of course, you have to love the picture you get when you leave with sparklers. It is stunning. Once again, some venues do not allow sparklers, so make sure you check with them before you buy 100 of them!
Don’t forget, bubbles and bells. These are two very easy and inexpensive options for the farewell!
What are you thinking abot having your guests throw at your exit? And, if you are married, what did your guests throw at your big exit?
