RICE TOSS---YES OR NO??

Rusty, on November 27, 2013 at 4:17 PM Posted in Planning 0 22

Do people still toss rice or is that outdated? If no what are you doing? Or are you doing nothing?

    I've seen pictures where people have done sprinkles and I think it looks so sweet if that's towards your wedding, it was also a carnival themed wedding so it made sense

    Rice is outdated (and what a waste of food :] )

    We're not having anything tossed on us, but I have heard of flowers petals, confetti, things like that. Just make sure your venue allows it!! Mine does not allow confetti or anything that could get stuck in the carpets.

    Bubbles or seeds work if you want to do the toss

    We didn't do anything since we actually left the church first. Most places I think have stopped the rice thing.

    I think it's actually illegal to throw rice in texas. You can do birdseed or confetti.

    It's illegal in a lot of places because of what Mrs. K said. I would find an alternative. Some people opt to throw bird seed.

    No rice or bird seed .... rice blows (expands) up in birds belly and kills them and no seeds b/c birds come down to eat it and can get killed by cars and such or in peoples' way .... bubbles are good. if your wedding is in the evening, sparklers are GORGEOUS!

    Do Bubbles, I love bubbles! Lol

    I haven't see rice tossed in a long time, and I heard it hurts when it hits you in the face!

    We're not having anything tossed on us either. And yes, throwing rice is illegal in most places.

    I love the ribbon wand idea! It looks super cute in pics and its a fun DIY project. Etsy has tons of nice kits you can buy.

    This is an example I found on the internet. This is not me or anyone I know.

    Bubbles are sticky and rice kills birds.

    I love the ribbon idea. Rice kills birds so most people have stopped doing it.

    Not doing any of it! Bubbles stains on dark colors and our GMs and BMs are both in black, and of course my groom.

    I really really want a rice toss, but I think we are going to use popcorn instead.
