My church doesn't allow anything outside the church. Not even bubbles (BS but whatever, I'm over it I guess lol). My plan right now is to do Irish wedding bells. An Irish tradition. I attached a pin that shows what I want to do. I'm hoping to DIY them to save money but I'm not sure I have the patience for it lol

I know this is horrible-but what is your church going to do if you had bubbles? They won't chase you down lol! Also, I'm sure if you offer an xtra donation they would allow it!!

We're using rose petals after the church. I got customized petal cones on Etsy.

this is true! We're meeting with the deacon Wednesday night, so I'm gonna try to feel him out about exactly what we can and cannot do.

We did bells instead of throwing anything (many churches don't allow that).

FH niece did this at her wedding. It was nice and so different from all the other weddings I have been to. We even held onto them and used them at the reception to make them kiss instead of clinking the glasses.

I was thinking of butterflies being released, but they were too expensive for our budget.

We are doing bubbles, but I haven't checked them against the dress and am a little concerned they might stain it. Too late now though we already have the bubbles and we are going with it, just gotta keep my fingers crossed they don't react with the dress.

Good Luck with your decision.

I know someone who makes ribbon wands for send offs. Her etsy shop is called katekatenyc. I've also seen people do noise makers.

This may seem like a silly question but why do some place not allow bubbles? I never actually asked my venue so I hope it's not an issue with Bellport because I already bought them!
