You don't have to do this, but I wanted it for the photo opportunity.
Guests threw rose petals from the petal cone holders we made.

Did you use real rose petals or the silk ones that they have at like Michaels? Also, how much petals did you give each guest?

My florist provided the rose petals from their store. My wedding coordinator filled each of the 37 or 40 petal cone holders and then with the extras, she said guests came up and grabbed handfuls to throw at us as we walked out.

Sorry for all the questions but I'm trying to figure this out....
So you walked back down the aisle, at the entryway did the receiving line, then when you walked out of the church people threw rose petals at you?
TIA

Don't apologize - I'm HTH! DH and I walked up the aisle, did the receiving line, then actually got pulled back into the Church for about 15 min worth of photos, then we waited for all the guests to go outside with their petal cone holders and rose petals, then our photog told everyone to get ready, then we walked out and he started taking photos as the rose petals were thrown.

I think I want to do silk...I'm terrible allergic to flowers and real ones can end in disaster. Did you have to ask your church if the silks were okay?

WE did bubbles outside the church...I wanted petals but you have to ask your church if they allow it.
