THE WALK OUT OF CHURCH
We are trying to decide what to use for guests to throw as we walk out of church. Birdseed,bubbles,streamers are a few ideas. Any other ideas would be helpful. Thanks. Good question...

how about MONEY???? I addressed all my envelopes (outer with addresses & inner with just the names) on my ink jet printer at home. It really didn't take as long as I thought it would. I typed all the addresses in to a word document with the specific font & size I wanted and then I practiced by cutting sheets of paper the size of my envelope to get the centering just right. You can use the envelope tool in word to customize the size of your envelope & also your centering. Hope this helps!

All kidding aside, most churches (mine included) are opting for birdseed. Something about birds exploding after eating rice....

My church wont allow anything tossed at all. We have no problem with that but I thought it was funny.

I had the same problem. Although the were willing, the Msgr clearly wanted us to use bubbles due to clean up. Definately NOT confetti - apparently it doesn't p/up easily. If you use bubbles, make sure they're nontoxic, non staining. The ones via the knot and bridalink are. And get the ones with the twist off cap. The others have a tendency to stick. The bubbles were a BIG hit at our wedding. Esp with the little kids ( and the 30 something kinds too!). They look great in the photos....

My sister-in-law had folks ring bells I never heard that one about signing the bride's shoe. I did know I didnt want the bouquet/garter tradition and then my DJ told me about the anniversary dance. That was the first time I heard of it and we are definitely going to do it. I think it is probably going to get more & more popular. Are you lining your lips, then lipstick? How about just gloss?
