Neither does mine, so we're using bubbles.

Ribbon sticks - you can even get the ribbons done with your name/FH name and the wedding date... Have them done in your colors.. it's a pretty easy DIY project.

Thanks for the suggestions!

But my friend used bubbles at hers and they splattered and stained her dress and the bridesmaids dresses!

It was horrible in all the pictures you could see these wet spots on the dresses :(

you can use little bells. they sound pretty and they can be a favor (or an additional favor) as well.

I've seen bells, ribbons, bubbles, and sparklers. It all depends on what you like. The bubbles that I saw didn't do anything to the dresses so maybe it depends on the bubbles?? (that sounds so silly haha) Maybe you should ask your bridal shop where you are getting your dress. Possibly bubbles only stain certain types of fabric like satin??

Our church doesn't allow it either...we were going to do bubbles but the last wedding we went to not everyone was doing it and I think the photo will have to be enhanced...I'm trying to convience FH to do ribbon wands

I was just in a wedding where they used bells - it was a cute idea. Mine broke off the string so my bell sounded kind of sad LOL

I am pretty sure there is a Brides Review who did the ribbons and it has pics

Mine won't let us throw petals, which I really wanted. So we are going to go traditional and throw rice and bubbles...

Im using bubbles at my sis wedding she used bubbles and there was no marks on our dresses it might depend on the bubbles or the material of the dresses

I agree with the ribbon sticks. They sound like the best option IMO.

I posted a while back about the MOB's dress getting bubble stains all over it from people blowing bubbles. I won't be having them at my wedding for this reason. I'm not sure if the stains eventually went away but my aunt was showing them to me at the RH well after everyone had left the Chruch, so they hung around more than just a few minutes.

We did streamer throws. The streamers stayed attached to the capsules, so clean up was very easy. We brought trash bags with us and the limo drivers and family members helped clean up before we left.
