Wedding Poppers and Their Popularity

Why do people throw rice, confetti, or wedding poppers at weddings? This tradition started with rice throwing, and was done to wish a bountiful and fertile life to the new couple. Some people now believe that throwing rice will harm the birds that eat it. So what should we throw that will keep the birds safe, and still make the honeymoon walk look amazing?

One safe alternative people use today is wedding poppers. What exactly is a wedding popper? Wedding poppers are also known as party poppers or champagne poppers. They were originally used for holiday celebrations, such as New Years and 4th of July. They have now gained a lot of popularity at weddings. In some cases, they have even replaced the traditional rice or confetti throwing, during the bride and groom‘s walk to their car.

The main reason that wedding poppers are so popular today, is because they are environmentally friendly. In other words, they are safe for our environment. They are biodegradable. They are also safe for all our flying feathered friends. They also won’t injure anyone when they are thrown. Rice can hit the bride, groom, or other wedding guests in the eyes.

With wedding poppers, there is a safe spring loaded device that sends the biodegradable tissue paper streamers and confetti into the air. There are no dangerous explosives or any loud firecracker noises with wedding poppers either. You can even have them personalized with the name of the bride and groom, and their wedding date written on them.

So, if you still want to have the traditional wedding toss after the ceremony, then wedding poppers is the answer for you. They are safe alternatives to rice, and will make the wedding getaway a beautiful moment. Your wedding photos will look great with all the different colored streamers flying through the air.

What is a Wedding Toss?

The wedding toss is one of the most anticipated and memorable wedding day moments. It is the send off for the new couple into their new life. Wedding tossing is a symbol of good wishes, as well as projecting a long and happy future. It is a tradition and custom that has been done for centuries, and is still done today.

Traditional wedding tosses consisted of throwing rice, but because of fears of harming birds that eat this rice, that has all changed today. Many things are used now to toss, such as rose petals that are fresh, dried, or even silk petals. Other items such as confetti, streamers, soap petals, and bubbles have also gained a lot of popularity in wedding tosses.

These are just a few ideas, but with your imagination, the possibilities are endless. These can be tied into your wedding reception too. Just place a toss bag at each guests place setting which will add a beautiful touch, put them on a table with a decorative sign that says “ Please Toss Me”, or hand them out personally to each guest as they arrive for your special occasion.

Your wedding venue will have to be taken into consideration when choosing your toss item, as all venues have different rules for this part of your wedding. Be sure to check this out before choosing your wedding venue, because some wedding venues will not allow wedding tosses at all. Some will allow wedding tosses as long as you pay a fee for clean up, and some allow the tossing of certain items only. This is something you definitely need to know before spending money on items that you may not be able to use.

If you have a certain venue that you really want to use that does not allow wedding tosses, you can always use wedding bubbles instead. These are just blown into the air, and can be done anywhere. Wedding balloons can be used, since you are not tossing them, and they just release into the sky. The traditional dove releasing or the more modern day butterfly releasing, can also replace wedding tosses at venues that don’t allow them.

Any of these wedding toss options will make your wedding day more memorable and spectacular, and your wedding photos will be fabulous and beautiful. This is the toss that sends the new couple into their new happy life as man and wife, and it should be a walk they remember forever.
