what to throw at the reception..

What is everyone going to have thrown when they leave the church/ceremony/etc (lol)..

our church won't let us have anything that makes a mess.. so that leaves bubbles and like ribbon wands.. but i also saw streamers today at michaels that stay attached so no pickup!! I don't know what to choose!! lol

I am probably going to do the build a bear hearts or fake rose petals. By banquet manager said not to do real flowers because they can ruin your wedding dress.

If you are limited to something what will leave no clean-up, I say bubbles!!

I'm disturbed by having something thrown at me, because knowing myself, it will most likely cause me to fall.

So I think we're going to go with ribber wands or something else that can be waved around.

unfortunately, my church does not allow bubbles, rose petals, rice or pretty much anything!!!! we will probably do the ribbon wands.

I don't trust bubbles- sorry girls- what if one pops in your eye, then you'll have a red eye all day... or what if you're wearing a fabric (like silk) that might stain from the bubbles?... I'm going with either streamers or butterflies.

I want butterflies SO bad... but does it depend on the month... Mine is March 27... Is it still too cold for butterflies???

I really wanted to do rose petals - but I don't think my church will allow it - so I think we are going to end up with bubbles...

We are doing rose petals, I love how the black and white pics with just the petals colored look in albums.

it really depends on how it is during that month. I mean this past march was chilly but had its warm days. But honestly, I don't think they'll hatch from their cocoon until late april
