“We now pronounce you husband and wife!”

These are the magic words you have been waiting to hear for such a long time. As you walk down the aisle and out of the church are your guests out there throwing rice? Did you know that there are a lot of rice alternatives that can be used to usher your new marriage into the world?
If you want to be different and creative try some of these rice throwing alternatives!
- Bubbles are one of the biggest alternatives to rice. They are used at a lot of weddings and are affordable and easy. They are a pretty detail to and kids love them afterwards.
- Doves/Butterflies are a great twist on the rice throwing tradition. Living creatures are a great way to bring nature and a sense of harmony to any wedding. This option is more expensive but worth the dramatic effect!
- Bells are a great noise effect that are a play on the traditional wedding bells theme. Instead of throwing rice, have your guests ring bells at your grand exit!
- Sparklers are great for to show for a night wedding. These are not just for the 4th of July but can be a great glow effect for your to your beautiful exit.

I love these alternatives. I love weddings that are simple, sweet & have a different twist. Thanks for sharing!
I am such a huge fan of the Butterflies, I think they make a beautiful and memorable exit. I’ve posted this on my FB page and StumbleUpon!
As I count down to my big day I’m realizing I don’t have anything “grand” planned. Hmmm, I really like the sparklers idea. Maybe I should’ve kept my wedding in the evening lol
Thanks Inspired Sistah!
Ahshia I love butterflies and doves if done properly. And thanks for reminding me about StumbledUpon, I have an account and never use it.
Ty, this was one of the things on your list to think about *shaking naughty finger* based on your original wedding plan I was going to suggest butterflies (budget permitting) to go with the original theme. I think a mix of red and white rose petals might be good for your grand send off based on the current plan.
I have frequented your posts before. The more I take in, the more I keep coming back!
