Departing from your wedding reception on a high note is just as important as any element you have meticulously planned for your event. Whether you’re leaving with a bang amid a fireworks display to lifting off vicariously in a hot air balloon, your celebratory send-off should reflect your unique style. When pondering ideas for your grand exit remember to check with the venue’s event coordinator to discuss the guidelines or permits associated with your choice. Consider the following suggestions as your options:
- Sparklers- Position 20” length unwrapped sparklers inside a vase along with a calligraphed sign stating, “Sparkler Send-Off at 11:00 pm”
- Petals- Nestle delicate petals in a beautifully decorated basket for guests to grab handfuls as they gather in the area to shower you with goodbyes and well wishes
- Bubbles/Streamers/Glow Sticks- Budget Friendly Option and fun for all ages
- Vintage Car- Sophisticated and Classic
- Bike- A tandem bike ride says "See Ya" in a whimsical manner
