When the first dance is done, and the cake is cut, it is time for the grand finale: the wedding sends an exit. Now, the departure can be as glamorous and innovative as you plan it to be. People focus on how the bride will enter the church, but they hardly think of the wedding send-off. It is often seen as an afterthought. But thanks to social media and TikTok reels, people have now started to pay attention to every single aspect of a wedding. People also hire professional photographers to capture the perfect moments. The task is monitored by the friends of the bride & the groom. Continue reading to find exciting ideas for a wedding send-off.
Release Sky Lantern: if the wedding send-off is at night, releasing a sky lantern might be the perfect way to let the couple exit. The bright light against the dark backdrop of the night sky will look fantastic and create Instagram-worthy photos. For this style of send-off, you need open space, and the timing has to be correct. Let the fire lanterns be lighted beforehand to avoid confusion.
Snowfall: Wouldn’t it look so great if snow falls from the clear sky when the couple exits? It is possible to have faked snowfall to have that grand effect. All you require is a snow machine that sprays artificial snow at the proper time. Various companies provide snow machine rental for special occasions. These machines are easy to run and come in portable options. All you need to do is create that perfect setup and let the snow come down when the couple walks out of the church.
Release Balloons: If you don’t want anything complicated but still wish to create a photo finish to your wedding exit, use many balloons; this is one of the easiest ways to add fun and movement to the event. Be sure not to use different colored balloons, as they may look tacky and wrong. Instead, use white balloons that look classy and the wedding theme. When you release so many balloons in the sky, it creates a fantastic moment of joy and wonder. Be sure to use biodegradable balloons, as you don’t want the released balloons to produce more pollution. You may also ask the guests to hold the balloons from the balcony and free them when the couple makes their exit. However, if your wedding is indoors, you may opt for balloon toss instead of releasing balloons to the open sky.
Flower Petals: One of the conventional ways to make the send-off exciting is to throw flower petals over the couple. It is one of the more traditional approaches to things and works just fine. Who doesn’t like to have flowers tossed at them? If you want to add more whimsy, you may even decide to release butterflies at the exact moment. The butterflies flutter around and make the perfect situation for the wedding photographs.
If you want a more traditional approach to the send-off ceremony, you may throw rice at the couple as they make their way out. You may even unleash fireworks and let everyone come out and enjoy the spectacle.
