Re: POLL: Birdseed, Bubbles, or Petals?

If you are in a position where all three can be done as a possibility (I am not aloud by my church to throw ANYTHING, so I have to do something that does not remain behind) I would go with the petals- they are gorgeous and come out awesome in photos- especially if you do colorization in black and white photos!

Re: POLL: Birdseed, Bubbles, or Petals?

We did fresh rose petals.

I don't like bubbles b/c they are hard to open and your hands get sticky and they stain when they pop on you. They look pretty though!

Also my church would not let us throw anything fake b/c then they have to clean it up.

Re: POLL: Birdseed, Bubbles, or Petals?

I want to blow bubbles, I probably won't get enough petals and birdseed isn't allowed.

I wanted petals, but the Church only allowed bubbles or bells.
We chose bubbles.

I like the look of rose petals, but my churched charged for a clean-up fee, so I went with bubbles. It looks nice in pics
