Send Off Sparklers not allowed

Krista, on August 9, 2019 at 2:17 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 9
Hi everyone,


I am wanting to do a really big send off where guests line up on each side and farewell to us at the end of the reception. I was hoping to do sparklers for guests but apparently the venue doesn't allow it as hazard..

Does anyone have any other ideas for alternatives?

    My venue doesn't allow them either. I did see a post someone where someone hole punched leaves to make confetti. That way it its outside its eco friendly. I would definitely run it bu the venue first but I dont see why it would be a problem

    I did bubbles. If you want something epic looking there's like led balloons or light wands.

    Glow sticks seem to be a popular thing these days.

    Check with your venue first, obviously, but biodegradable confetti, glowsticks, ribbon wands, bubbles, etc. are all pretty good alternatives. Obviously some will only work with the right lighting outside (bubbles) but check with your venue to see what others have done.

    There's fiber optic wands that makes the effect in photos, flashlights, glow sticks, for stuff that lights up. Stuff that doesn't light up is confetti, ribbons, bubbles.

    Bubbles can leave marks on your dress depending on the fabric. I’m looking into getting the ribbon wands. You can find them cheap on amazon.

    We are doing glow sticks. They looks really good in photos.
